Re: Neil Pryde Glide Reports/Reviews?

Can someone confirm that to reduce lift you use the shim washer with rear bolt of the rear wing? Does this work by creating more lift from the rear wing so increasing downward pressure on the front wing and reducing overall lift?

Re: FireWire vanguard ?

I'm going to buy a used Vanguard. I think it is 2015 or 2016. How can i confirm it is kite construction? I've done some searching online but haven't figured out if the kiteboards have specific graphics or labelling. Thanks for any help.

Re: retiring in Portugal to kite

At faro praia right now can see it would be great with wind. Would be very easy to set up long downwinders. Are there any kite shops in the Algarve or does everything have to be imported?

Re: retiring in Portugal to kite

Any information on kiting South and West coast within an hour or so drive of Lagos and Sagres Oct to April? Have been talking to surf shops but not getting any real idea how often it is good. I realize Oct to April is relying on weather systems so not as consistent as Summer but ???? If eastern Alga...
