Re: Cotton: Top and bottom?!?

I made a couple boards with the 10.5 corecell and never got any issues. I tend to agree that for a surfboard it is quite slim but given the dimension of the board I think it will right all right. I do not expect to right it in the waves though as I kite mostly in rivers/lakes... I will post pictures...

Re: how much do the top riders actually make per year?

I agree, huge barriers to start kitesurfing, especially if you are young and your parents are not making lots of money... That said, how much does a pro windsurfer can earn per year?

Re: A board build

Let me be more specific then... I am building a North Whip 5'6" (Compact Surf Concept (CSC)) and have no ideas how much rocker and concave I should go for... This is my first home made surf kiteboard and definitely need some advice on the proper amount of rocker/concave... Thanks in advance. Dany

Re: A board build

Nice board, congrats... Could you be more specific on rocker? It looks like 5 inches rocker at the nose and no more than 1 at the tail but would appreciate more precise numbers. Thanks.

Re: Cotton: Top and bottom?!?

I am not an artist so adding cotton is for cosmetics purposes. It thought it would look great on the bottom of the board as well but I am not sure if it works or not. Like I said adding weight is not an issue as I am doing a short surfboard with 10.5 cm corecell so on the thin side which translate t...

Re: Epic Infinity V4 & Bullshit Light Wind Claims

IMO a 16M kite is a light wind kite, nowitstanding the fact that there are "lighter" wind kites on the market. I agree that revealing it's size is the least a company can do but at least now people, with minimal research, can know the size. The prudent approach would be to try it first and assess if...
