Re: Egypt

Hi, I am based at Colona Watersports at Magawish Hotel in Hurghada. Yes the Hotels are empty, or almost empty, that's' why there is now offers for 15 USD per night in Magawish. It's not really true that flights don't go. I just tried to book flights with Air Berlin and Condor from Germany and they a...

Hi, I got the 666 range here and ride the 132 myself, here is a few things about the boards. The construction is mainly a combination of wood and honeycomb.

Hi,

You can use one bar for all kites, you attach a connection line to the front pump leash attachment on each kites. Lenghts specified in the manual. This line remains on the kite and then you attach the shift center line to that line.

Cheers,
