Apparently it's made out of paper.

Watching that video of Mike foiling at the dock causes me to reevaluate my entire existence on this planet.

Seriously.

This clearly calls for more foiling and less of everything else, except making love with my beautiful wife (because sometimes there is just no wind at all).

Speaking of getting it up when there is little wind, has anyone ever pumped their kite with hydrogen or helium?

Saw a note that the fuselage and mast are welded together. Should stop water intrusion people talk about with the LF strut.

Although, when I tried the LF foil, the water inside didn't bother me. I didn't realize there was water in the strut until I was walking back up the beach with it and saw the water seeping out.

I do like that they have an option for three straps.

As a Cabrinha dealer I regret to write that the Double Agent isn't available yet. Maybe Cabdriver can comment on this more specifically, but I've heard it is a couple of months away. We ordered a bunch of them too.

Very surprised Cabrinha weren't the first player in this - I saw Pete Cabrinha hydrofoiling back in possibly 2008 or 2009 (?) and he made it look v smooth. No doubt the designs will be good - they should be with that provenance.
