You are travelling I assume ...
Peter, breathable vent plugs are there for more than just travelling with your board in a poorly-pressurized airplane luggage compartment.

Re: Spencer Pro 75L thoughts?

Just looked into vent plugs a bit deeper and realized leash plugs are now available with a breathable vent built in ( i.e. https://greenlightsurfsupply.com/products/surfboard-vented-leash-plug-v314?pr_prod_strat=e5_desc&pr_rec_id=bf2567a5d&pr_rec_pid=422576627&pr_ref_pid=422578455&pr_seq=uniform ). ...

Re: Spencer Pro 75L thoughts?

Price looks appealing on the Spencers, but do they have a Goretex vent plug ? Hidden under the EVA deck pad maybe ?

May want to check into that with Mac or Houston guys, or whomever you purchase from.

... one of the advantages of investing in Aluula kites is the ability to use a single kite quiver for foiling, SB & TT.
For sure, and with their awesome wind range, fewer Aluula kites in that quiver.

Pros (compared to kiting)
- winging is a more-even full-body workout compared to kiting or kite foiling

Re: the upwind angles are mostly influenced by the aspect ratio of the kite?

.... to get extra low end and upwind without foil try an alaia or "tiki" long wooden board with nose rocker. Very fun ...which alaia or tiki longboard you suggest as a classic bestseller of the category? Agree with alpaia, for low wind, try a tt board or alaia with lots of planform area, decent sti...

Re: Mathis Ghio crowned 2023 World Wingfoil Racing Champion

Wonder why he's not racing the AA series wing? The double-A Glide has a loose leach when sheeted out which gives it a lot more stability when on just the LE handle ( riding bumps ) than a tight-leach wing. Sheet-in just a tad to lock down that loose leach and the all-Aluula construction is super-st...

Re: Ram Air Wing from Ozone

... two skin LEI kites .... No significant advantage .... I may have it wrong but the explanation I encountered for the above was the leading edge closure seam on a kite ( or wing ) acts as an aerodynamic trip to separate the underside flow from the LE early. That minimizes circulation or vorticity...
