Last year i got into racing.
During a comp, i found out that my 12m rebel isn't going to cut it against the big boys.
So i need a big kite, since i've been kiting on North kites for 10 years , i really don't what to look at other brands.
So anyone tried the new Dyno or seen it or knows when they're coming out?
thanx
Any news on North Dyno??

PKRA Thailand is in about 3 weeks...winds are lighter for racing, so I expect Dirk Hanel and Sky Solbach to be racing on those kites...let's see what results they will achieve!

Re: Any news on North Dyno??
Any news yet?
At 77kg, would you go for 16 or 18m² (for course racing, i mean)
I'm afraid that 18 will be to heavy, construction wise. And what would be the gain in comparison of the 16, maybe 1 or 2 knots?

Re: Any news on North Dyno??
I have been running a Fuse 14 as my big kite in the snow races in the states, I have beat every big kite with it. I currently run 30m lines and have beat 17m kites on 40m. in very light winds, I was drag racing Damo on skiis,(I race snowboards). and was stoked how fast my kite was against his crossbow 14. I am coming off Ozone edges and am so happy with my fuses. I have a dyno 18 on order and can't wait to play with it. I think 16 to 12 would be a good jump, also. I weigh around 170lbs and ride and train in very little wind all summer so I think the 18 is the correct choice. I was one of the first guys to have a zephyr when I was a ozone athlete, and now everyone here flys them so I hope the dyno stomps them! As soon as I get mine I will report whats up!

Re: Any news on North Dyno??
North is claiming a low end of 5 knots for the 18m 
Seems like they took a different direction then Dimitri & the Infinity. The Dynos have 7 struts vs the Infinitys 3 and Dynos lost the 1-pump to save weight while the Infinity kept it.
I CAN'T WAIT to try the Dynos.

Re: Any news on North Dyno??
they are taking the piss with the price!!
OK, FS kites cost a little more but the amount of work that goes into making a large foil is HOURS and HOURS more than making an inflatable!!!
