Boots = No twisted legs and ankles to rotate faster -> slower rotation = more style.
Back in the day even more when a pair of escalades added solid 3kg to your board
However, good luck to Zoon with Best
More rocker equals.... Bigger POP and softer landings..Plus you need more power in you kite so when you realease with the kite low you are juiced...eitan80 wrote:You mean less rocker...dyyylan wrote:it's not the fact that the boots are heavier that makes you need more power, but the rocker. you dont want to ride a flat flexy board with boots, it will feel like a noodle. you can control the board much better so you want something bigger with more rocker, and more stiffness so you can use the boots to their full advantage and get more pop. and the board needs to be thicker or you will end up like youri with ripped inserts every heat..
I highly disagree that he has anything to prove. He has all ready proved it year after year that he is the best. Maybe he just wants to enjoy what he does a little more with out trying to be something that everyone else thinks he should be.Toby wrote:Youri has style and power and is a good guy.
Aaron needs to proof again that he is the best.
For sure he is top, but competition is something else...I know!
But makes the tour a bit more exciting to see how Aaron will do.
I hope he comes back, but sounds like it!
He does wear boots.Toby wrote:So why is Youri not on boots?
I saw Gisela with boots.
Are the judges in favor of boots? I know there are some hardcore wakestyle judges and I fear that they rather see a boot guy win if close.
The judging sheets should be public!
