Normal surfboard for kitesurfing
Can I use my surf tech epoxy surfboard for kitesurfing or will it fall apart? I'm not gonna do any jumps with it. Just using the kite to catch the wave.

Re: Normal surfboard for kitesurfing
hold on there buddy..which construction is it?
If it is tuflite then carry on...if not they have a lot of epoxy constructions that will not hold up very well...but it might for a while...

Re: Normal surfboard for kitesurfing
I currently use the Hynson Black Night fish (which I also surf with) for low wind which is made out of Thermal Epoxy Compression and I have not have had any problem with it, I even jump it. I have also used polyurethane surf boards but I don't jump with those.
