When I compared the 12m Speed 5 to the Sonic1 11m back to back, I'd say the sonic had about 10% more height and hangtime. I never tried 18m in Sonic1, but everyone said 18m was the best size that year. 18m is definitely my favorite size of the sonic 2. I absolutely love my Sonic1 18m. Most likely m...

A Sonic 13 and the TT? Too difficult to handle?

Nope, sounds like a great combo to me. Almost the 1 kite quiver.

Guys you're intriguing me with the Sonic... I'm feeling like a child who knows that the story is too big for him but he's ready to jump anyway... :-))) So, my current quiver: 3 pumps, Core XR 7/11/15, one foil, SP5 21. I ride only TT, so forget foiling for the moment. Next year, I'm planning to rep...

Agree strongly with Alexrider/pumpy. Speed 4 8 dlx is my favorite and most often used kite with the foilboard. I guess it is very similar to the hyperlink, just ahead of its time. Sonic 2 is a great kite, but harder to relaunch. And I have a ton of experience in relaunching the S4 8 and 10 dlx whil...

It’s suppose to be on a 2 year cycle now unlike before when they just released after a big improvement. Not sure how long the S5 had been out but they usually release the new model around the Dec/January.

Nobile infinity foilboard with zen foil. 8000 miles on the back of my bike without problem

I bought a Flysplit L when they first came out and now all my boards are split(FS and Nobile). You are going to have a hard time picking up a used one because they are so good. My recommendation is get a brand with the W connector. The ease is well worth the little extra.

Pics don't work but I'm very interested in this. Been using my Zen split setup now for 9 months on the road and it's held up great. I too dislike the strap setup and was planning on putting inserts for a center strap and something for the rear strap so I can jump with the board. A big plus side I've...

Epic as in what? Epic as in amazing surroundings and wind everyday? Somewhere way way off the beaten path? Extremely cheap housing/food/nightlife? I'd suggest checking out San Pedro on Lake Atitlan in Guatamala. One of my favorite spots I discovered on my way south. On top of it they have many diffe...
