Re: Dumpster diver for kiting

@ Starsky , I feel you. The DD and shapes like it (most good surf shapers have one now) is different than the boards people are offering as "Substitutes". Boards like the Choptop, and Gambler etc... are still very fishy shapes. They still carry a round outline in a compact size with low entry rocker...

Re: How do you tack a directional face into the wind ?

Hi Peter, I know it has been a while, but I remember someone asking if there was an onboard video of a duck tack. Click on the link, it will take you to a video of mine, There are a few duck tacks in it from a helmet cam. I believe the third clip in the video there is one. It is a raw edit of a day ...

Hatteras Camping

Hi all,

I have been to hatteras quite a few times, but always rented a house.

What is the policy of posting up a tent outside of a campground, say on the beach? Will you get hassled by the Police/DENR?

Cruising down tomorrow, thanks in advance.

Re: Rebel 2012 for waves - few important question, pls respo

I apologize as I have a quiver of 2011 Rebels and Evos, not 2012 (not much primary difference on the Rebel I understand). I ride them both for strapless surf... I think it is funny that people ask if the Rebel is Fast enough, as the kite is very fast and very powerful through the range. It is most i...

Re: How do you tack a directional face into the wind ?

The key to this tack is how much and when you slow down. It also has a lot to do with how powered you are. I have not tried a race board, just do it with surfboards, it is a very useful move. If you are well powered, you want to bring the kite above you just slightly before you bring the board upwin...

Re: Good Upwind and Good Drift???

I am a bit brand loyal, but the past four years I flew North Rebels. I ride strapless and the kite sits very far forward in the window and goes upwind insanely well. This year (2011) I bought a 10m Evo as well to try because I was getting frustrated with the drift and looping ability as I like to ri...
