I hope you don't mind :wink: if i disagree about the 8 knots for your giant friend

Remember "i was there with you" in 8kn & you at 180lbs and the Oxygen V2 you were starting to go

So this giant on this smaller TT....would totally sink to his waist..if wind "really" dropped to 8kn

That is what gets you in trouble on KF...you just simply supa lowball the wind speed too often

IMO for him to "keep planing and not sinking" the wind need to stay 13kn and above on small TT

And after SEEING the Oxygen V2 he would need at least 11kn and above to keep planing.....

........on 22m lines...and maybe able to keep planing in 10kn on 27 m lines...with Oxygen V2


...I still think you are a very nice guy.........that does not change a thing...i am so glad i met you....

.........Let's all have a very HAPPY NEW YEAR........ :D :D :D :D :D .....................................

nice tops!

I was able to give the Infinity V2 a try this weekend on the snow. We were able to keep it stable in about 6-7 knots. I'm only 150 lbs so when a gust hit I really felt the pull. I would be overpowered on that in 10 knots for sure i bet. I use the R 13 for my lightwind kiting but wanted to test the v2 out to see what the fuss was about. Impressive kite for sure. The wind was unstable and we were really only able to keep it up for a brief period as the wind was usually around 2 knots at best. We didn't really try to get it up in that, but I was surprised at how stable it was in light winds where you'd always have to move the kite just to keep it in the sky on smaller ones I've tried.

D, if they were made for laddies, then Cameron would be modeling them. Considering that Helen is making them look so nice, I think you meant ladies! :lol: :thumb:

This is an email my shipping department received today from another happy customer who loves his new EPIC TRANSPORTER GOLF BAG.
Hi Kristy,
The bag arrived today and I love it. I might need one more soon once I figure out how my boards fit in my Epic roller bag. Thanks again. I love my Epic gear.
Mark

This is another email I got this morning from some one in France and just wanted to share this with you while I am in Puerto Rico testing some prototype kites with the 3G II graphics. :thumb:
Dear Dimitri & Epic crew,
First of all, congratulation and thank you for expanding the kitesurfing market with your excellent kites. I am always glad to see new brands gaining popularity thanks to the quality of their products.
During a recent trip in Europe, I have had the opportunity to try EPIC kites (Screamer and Renegade) and I have to admit that I was really impressed by these kites. In fact, I like them so much I bought myself a Screamer the next day!
Despite the fact that they are fantastic kites, they do not seem to be widely known (at least in my area).......
We are getting there but again I don't see a lot of FERRARI in my aria. :naughty:
