2-4kn wind riding was the original claim on SUP
Now instead he prefers to say he rides in less than 5kn on a SUP
Still BS....just with a different stink
Lol, just leave it on your seat, I'll watch it for yah... I promise, just like I can kite in wind speeds that are sub walking speed.....KiteCulture wrote:Can someone hold my popcorn....I gotta take a whizz. I don't want to miss anything.
I'm gonna say it one last time...I was there that day. I flew the kite. It was only 2-4 knots. It didn't feel like hardly any wind at ground level.SupaEZ wrote:2-4kn wind riding was the original claim on SUP

No, man, that's just plain aggressive. Passive aggressive is Supa's deal. Passive aggressive is putting on a falsely pleasant outside veiling one's ill will. Or as Wikipedia puts it:Laughingman wrote:[b]Fight Time[/b] wrote:Wave your flag, Supa. March on Capital Hill. You're like the westboro baptist church (intentionally uncapitalized). The only attention you deserve and get is negative attention, because only things that come from your pie hole are hate and negativity.Supa LOOK-AT-MEEE!!! wrote:

COMPANY EXECUTIVE should apologize
Are sanctions the way to go
This coming from the guy who wants to punch Supa in the neck over and over again? Talk about passive aggressive...

So you think i have not been out on the water many many times in those exact type of conditions?
I did not even need an SUP to pull it off...and i could hardly feel any wind at ground level.
Magical....surreal...call it what you want...but those kind of conditions....you never forget
The only way to "experience those days" is to put a LW kite...
..... up "no matter what you think" the wind is
Most people would just turn around and go home
Most people do not own LW specific kites (16-17-18-19-20-21m2) ......
....and therefore are in total amazement when they get to see something like that !!
We can all see that it happened...it is on video...so no reason not to believe that part
The part that should not be believed is the claim...from the marketing department of Epic
The sad part is that you are buying his BS because of who he is
To witness like you say such LW conditions riding is crazy...not too many people have
To ride in those conditions is even more crazy
Welcome to light wind vertical gradient sessions
The only way once again to ever ride those conditions is to own a LW specific kite and board....
......then always test the wind by putting the kite up
There is more.....you have to go on the glassy water and give it a go also
The wind over the water can be quite different ....more laminar and stronger than on land
If after doing all that you can't go...then there is insufficient "wind power in your LW kite"
That is when you go home.....after you tried
If you can kite then you can tell everyone that you had a crazy session in what felt like no wind
But if someone asks you how much wind you think was in your kite
It would be BS to say 2-4kn in the kite
It would be BS to say less than 5kn in the kite
A kite needs more wind power than that....especially when it is less than 17m2 and on 22m lines
This thread would not even exist if HE would have said STEADY 5-6kn in the kite
THAT WE COULD BELIEVE MORE

Maybe... or if you and the op had done a normal kite review like everyone else...you know... where you try out the equipment for a few sessions and document your experience and other pertinent details... the normal useful stuff....SupaEZ wrote:This thread would not even exist if HE would have said STEADY 5-6kn in the kite
