Anybody tried the "search" thingy? Rumor is - 99% of inquiries have been answered a few folds over... There have been a couple of kite-specific products floating around, but - AFAIK - they all went belly up as 40$US per kite is too expensive for an average kite folk, nevermind the effort required in...

How many times do we have to kick the same dead horse? 99% of kite riders out there - don't give a flying f@#ck about their pump as long as they can get their kite filled - worst case - you can borrow somebody else's. The other 0.99% think that they do care by shoving all kinds of slippery stuff in ...

Mate, this isn't "delaminated' - this is "ripped out" by you continuing to ride despite the fact that your board's edge was already all fu%ed up. Water + speed = pressure.

Guess that the appearance of this handle proves 2 points: 1)everything in this world is ...

Reminds me about my noob days when during one of our kite trips down South - I was stuck riding an extra-wide light-wind board in moderate chop for the first two days... and for the rest of the trip I was really regretting it as my ankles were shot. The fact that back then I was setting my straps on...

I found a good deal for a Stomp but cannot try before to buy, according by Naish it seems to be the board for me, but I found few reviews and I'm undecided on the size (135x42 or 138x42.5). I've got an Asylum 2020 that's exceptional on chop and landings but I feel I dont have the grip I want. At 72...

R.jpg How exactly we started with "if you're too dumb to make your own judgement calls and must rely on electronic gizmos and coast guard to save your sorry arse when heading out - then perhaps you should consider some other sport?" To end up with "who the f@#k needs backup shoots for skydiving and...

Dude, I don't know where exactly in Europe you're in - but everywhere else around the world we've been dealing with idiocies created by the covid hysteria for the last 2 years... one of these idiocies is the shortage of kiting gear.
