Re: Duotone Quick Mount

Without marine grease on the base plate screws they will seize in place as no one will ever undo them. Otherwise looks good.

Cab Moto 21 9m flapping tips.

Just managed to get out in some crappy wind yesterday for the 1st time. On a directional 15kn gusting 23 maybe. I noticed pulling the bar fast left and right with the kite high there was some flapping on the trailing edge of the canopy between the last strut and tip. This sent feedback back down the...

Re: conspiracy theory: no way wings should be so expensive

You will always get the same opinions, people associated in the industry will justify the prices and punters will say its expensive. Doesn't matter as there is a world economic hurricane coming your way and the industry will have to adapt.
I can see the " 3 for 2 " coming back so just wait.

Build quality turned to shit

I have noticed lately the quality of kites is crap. Not sure if this is due to them using lighter (weaker?) materials. It's a shame as the cost is insane. RRD seem to have kept the wheel, valve that works. Kevlar etc, oh wait it's maybe 0.5 kg heavier. Is it just me or am i wrong? what's your experi...

Re: Teijin D2 vs tripple vs quadtex

Like toothpaste? every year there is an improved formula but still the same thing that is not much better. More down to brushing technique than the paste. Kites, new material but it's down to the kiter skills in the end. Just would like to know if they made the same kite from d2 and quadtex would i ...

Re: CrazyFly Sculp 2022 Twisted & Bulging Struts

Just a note, when i inflate the kite i always half way through or so give the leading edge etc a sort of shake massage to ensure the bladder is seated correctly. If you have ever replaced an inner tube on a bike you know you don't just pump up to the running pressure (well some probably do, maybe ju...
