This seems correct yes, the latest years foil kites when windy has really kicked ass for all board types Earlier it was mostly a light wind weapon, not so anymore.And for kitefoil, mostly foil kites used nowadays as difficult to find downsides but loads of advantage PeterStatistics: Posted by Peter_Frank — Fri Nov 28, 2025 […]
I would not answer this post at first, as many of you know I find a tad longer boards are WAY better in every way.But now I can see others have found the very same after years of riding, namely that shorter boards only have downsides (except for travel, but I dont travel with kitefoils)A […]
I agree with you I think there is too many brands and too few buyers. Many brands have kept producing hoping things like Aluula kites would bring back people to a dwindling market. Many kiters who are not pros are OK with a 2 years old kite at 50% off. It's unavoidable we will see […]
Korua Shapes creates great snowboards. I have a few different ones for the slopes. They came out with this 'Pocket Rocket' - only 129cm, but wide for plenty of float. Rockered front to back, as well as side to side. Like riding a tea spoon. A little scary on the slopes, but incredibly fun for […]

The new 700 looks good.The 95 […]
To come back to the topic:I think, "RAM Air" made a very big step into mainstream this year, a lot more than many years before, as it is now no longer considered a light wind option only.You based your findings on what information?Statistics: Posted by SolarSet — Fri Nov 28, 2025 3:32 pm
To be fair, most people are oblivious about most ‘dangers’ these days thanks to the nanny state. They somehow assume things will be taken care of by ‘others’. Until you have been dragged by a kite out of control it’s hard to picture how powerful and erratic it can quickly become. Also, just in my […]
The short answer would be: No, not the handle nor the manual is optimised to switch from kite to parawing mode and back to a kite within a day of use and even within a week it mostly doesn't make sense.What it is made for is to test the parawing mode with the handle a […]
