Re: Modify Gong monoblock mast for Pro stabs

Gong used to offer the conversion in their work shop, but no longer do it. Sadly. They would not modify the fuselage but instead cut the fuselage and add the connector to the Mast-Part of monobloc, so you get a new carbon mast (comparable to the normal V2 carbon mast) and can connect a new fuselage...

Re: Peak 4 - 4m collapse

A=Z but B and C were way off.Before adjusting B and C I shortened rear lines and kite obviously back stalled.The collapse would happen when I was riding powered up and when I would sheet out the kite would fold from the trailing edge and then wing tips would fold and kite would fall out of the sky ...

Re: Flysurfer Peak 5

SO EXCITED! It's NKD! I got my 2.5/4/6m Peaks yesterday and it's going to be windy today - YES! So question - there's a bunch of extra lines and bits in the side pocket along with the manual. The manual doesn't say anything about what these are for. I assume these are the B-safe line and replacemen...

Re: Flysurfer Peak 5

All sizes fly in three knots. Subtract three knots from the wind speed to calculate the speed at which you can ride straight down wind. So if the wind speed is 30kts do you say that I can only go 3kts straight down wind? You can go 27kn downwind yea now when I read it agian you are correct

Re: Why isn't there a huge single skin?

I had the 13m p4 as well. While it was the most stable rock steady kite in anything from 2kts upwards on the beach, it wasn't the best when moving on a foil. Mine suffered random and fairly serious tip curls (both top and bottom) when just motoring along, next thing you were fighting to get the kit...

Re: Flysurfer Peak 4

[/quote] I'n not sure what you are suggesting? Do you mean that the sizes are not accurate, only nominal , but the actual size difference is deliberate , intended to provide a consistent difference between the sizes? I'm not sure what the point would be in doing that. I have only had the 6m, the 5m ...

Not necessarily? So, the sizing is completely arbitrary? How is that useful? Where on FS page are the exact projected areas?

No I'm pretty sure it's the opposite from arbitrary.

Re: Flysurfer Peak 4

Managed to pick up a 3m Peak4. Had to get to shipped in (used) from Australia. Psyched to have it! I really didn't feel a 2.5 Peak5 is a reasonable gap from the Peak4 4m. I can't speak to the logic for snow kiting, but the consistent one metre gaps don't really make sense for foiling. The gap betwe...
