I'll definitely hit you up next time, I was too tired by the time I remembered you were moving up to the point.

The appeal to me is compact traveling and possibly playing on waves luffed out.

I'm a BIG proponent of carving to dead or even past down wind as a build up to the gybe.

The one handed down winder at Gordons was sweet.

Squats with proper form are a huge piece missing in most fitness routines.

Does the H3 need more power/larger sails or just more speed before lifting off? Mackite has them for $100....
Hoping the infinity will become that cheap one day.

I'm pretty sure I'll be machining my foil to fit the regular tuttle box on this Kombat this weekend. That will give me a chance to try a narrow strap position. I'm not sure I'll like it with bigger sails upwind but I bet it will be fun to carve. I had a gusty, mostly underpowered session on that boa...

I don't bother foiling if I can rig a 5.7 with a fin, so can't comment on high wind suitability of the H2. I do know that it has a somewhat limited top end compared to most foils that have similar low end capabilities. I imagine that the H5 would be far better in more wind, I'd might buy the one for...

Whyatt (slingshot sponsored rider) has said he far prefers the Infinity wings for overall riding and carving but he jumps using one of the fast kite wings. Basically he doesn't have a use for the H2 and honestly I consider it a crappy design. They picked a far more efficient airfoil for the infinity...

I'm not, however a bunch of guys bought them down in Seattle. The overall impression is far better than the H2 wing (which I do have). Earlier take off but the same or higher top end. Better pitch stability and more secure in the carve. I'm waiting for the price to come down a little then I'll get t...

Footstrap inserts

Anyone got a couple spare I could buy? I want to do a little board surgery.

Google Drive should be pretty universal across devices, in theory.

She was editing last night and all I heard was "another damn kiter ruined the shot". Yes dear, they do that :lol:
