Most of Leikiters havent even tried a recent foil.
The other way round, I dont know any foil-kiter that had never tried Lei.

No, I dont want to change your opinion :-)
Nice, if you found the kites that fits to you.
I kite with the kites that fits to me.
You think your choice is better, I think its mine.
I also don't want a formula1 car, because my name is not Vari and not Schumacher.
And the place where i kite i can better go with Garcs and Foils.,
sometimes also with Lei.
There is no need for a discussion about Foil vs. Lei.

Please dont twist the posting of a picture to that.

Have fun,
Thisl
Mate i didnt start this, the paranoid foil heads did... go back and see how the thread unfolded and you will see...

I have NO DOUBT WHATSOEVER that foils will be great kites someday. By this i mean that more of them will compete in comps and WIN, and more people will use them but this will happen only as foils get better and keep up with the top standard of riding (like vari and schumacher)

Yeah but the only way at the moment is to get vari and put him on a foil for comps and see how he does.........

but thats's away from the thread.......the psycho 1 jumps huge and shock horror the psycho 2 jumps huge so nothing really out of the ordinary then, not sure what all the fuss is about when the psycho is known as a jumping machine already and those funky flysurfer boys are highly unlikely to produce something that performs less now are they ??
