Kite with the best, kite alone! 😅

Bell didn't invent the telephone nor did it Meucci. Infact it was invented by Innocenzo Manzetti (feel free to check it) more than 10 years before...sadly he didn't patent it.

Got it, well done

i dont think your physics check out

Your statement "it is not clear why wings generate lift" is true, if and only if there is only one method creating lift. But as you mention, there are more than one mechanisms. When planes fly in upright (normal) configuration, the wings generate lift by Bernoullis principal, upside down they create lift using particle kinetic by flying at a significant higher angle of attack. You can see it in any biplane airshow video on youtube.

One question remains, though: If you are out in a leaking drysuit, does the dry suit mitigate the cold water - that is, when the cold water is in the suit long enough for your body heat to warm the water a little - does the dry suit provide insulation?? For that, you'd have to stay in the water with the filled drysuit for a half hour or more to see if it warms up. It's not going to drown you and assuming you have a PFD on the outside, you can keep your head above water for a very long time - but does it warm up at all??

1:07 : "kph" ??? What's that weird notation, it's km/h

What mouth mount do u use?

I hate body dragging. I really like how foils take off downwind. It sucks that front wing doesn't sink. Great video btw!

I don't blame you for not going back to TT boards. Most TT boards are heavy press-out planks designed for maximum profit. Good as spraytrays and jumping - what you can do with a piece of plywood. I build bidirectional hydrodynamic platforms for extreme kite control. Maybe coming soon.

Yowza - that was a nice body drag onto the sand at 1:36. Reminds me of the good ole 2 line days. Was that with the foil kite?

Many thanks for the interesting & informative video. (Mahalo nui !) Looking forward to future efforts. Wishing good fortune to all at Our Kite Life. Peace.

Great video.. I want to use my wetsuit when fishing in river during cold weather, so my question is how do I merge the wetsuit to wading boots. I assume I put the bottom of the wetsuit pants into neoprene booties or waterproof socks that then go into the wading boots. How do I use a wetsuit with wading boots and keep water out of the boots in cold weather? Thanks!!

AT 7:30, what is the cord name attached to the whatch strap? I think it is a safety strap in case of the band tear.

Ma’am, I’ve listened to more people, from many different professions and education, than I can remember try and explain lift. Thank you.

How about a review for Isurus Wetsuits?

To someone completely new to foil kites, what size would be a good complement to 8+10 tube kites (basically to replace a 12 for more efficiency between 12 - 17 knots @73kg?) 10m or 12m sonic 4?

The % don't reflect the fraction of poeple in each group - kitesurfing is newer and there are more poeple in the less experienced groups. Possibly there are more aging 'expert' windsurfers who can't handle so well anymore. Kite surfing is obviously a bit of a mare - you are much more likely to hurt others because of the wider reach.

2:27 unfunfact: kilometres per hour is written as km/h, not kph, kphr, kmh, khr...

Celsius? This is America (😅)

Who is the guy who give the advice @5:40 He knows his shit.

The more physically demanding the worse the injury. Accidents in kiting occur at the beach, windsurfing is way more damaging even trying basic jumps.

Best tip for frontrolls: Don’t overthink, just jump and spin

Jesus lady you beautiful enough? 🤣🤣🥂

Please tell us which is the best place to rent a house for kiting in summer at Cape Hatteras? Frisco, Avon, Salvo? Thank you ++++

Why?

I change my bars yearly,

Time for a review of the new generation of Pansh kites. The Kestrel is reported to be a bog improvement over the Aurora

I have a video idea for you. What lasts longer, a white kite or a black kite (i.e. like Core, where those are the only choices). You could get two pieces of brand new kite canopy and leave them outside flapping in the sun for a year, and then strength test them to see which breaks first.

You are getting really good on the surfboard. . . very nice transitions!

My dad had 2 GNARLY windsurf accidents. One his back front foot got out of the strap during a back flip and boom, long ass rod in the leg. The other one he almost got tetraplegic… thank god he still around ripping on short boards !!!

live wind from your homespot?? we can display live wind..with push notification and.WG forecast 20% discount for Ecowitt Weather stations

really usefull. Thanks :)

Just had my second foil session on 10m Soul 2, watched so many of your videos on foil kite. Going to take a lot of getting used to but it has an amazing low end.

I used a 2 litre PETE fizzy drink bottle covered in tape and filled with water as the roller. The bumpers were made from five polystyrene balls cut in half and glued in place with impact adhesive. I didn't bother to paint anything as my board - an old shelf - was already smooth enough and splinter-free. Use what you've got in the shed!

Nickel Iron batteries or Sodium Ion batteries are both incredibly robust tough climate, battery choices, albeit quite bulky. But if placed on the ground in a weatherproof box with solar panel and PWM controller, it should work at 12v with car USB abapters to convert to 5v USB. Alternatively or augment it with a micro wind generator.

God I got to step up my group management skills. That's pretty next level! The DJ parties with all the equipment 😄 Love the idea of the 1 dinner each, but I definitely wouldn't choose meals that require the whole day. That's not a Beef wellington type of night. Either any kind of stew that you can leave for like 6 hours and go kite. Or a big BBQ. Or have hors d'oeuvre ready and make people eat later so you have like 2-3 hours to make someting

Birds were first

Benn using a “wrong sized” used board for ages and I’m just fine with it. Bought a new bar and lines & omg what a difference! My previous bar was a proper POS!

winter ---> not masochist ---> snowkiting.

awesome info

nature is the technology. scientists can't beat the nature

don't learn from someone else's mistakes learn from your own mistakes...lol what?

So informative absolutely eh

hello , can somebody recommend kitesurfing app for garmin forerunner955. Thanks

👍

Broke my femur doing a back-roll kite loop 15 years ago. Still on the water but my hip gives me trouble now likely arthritic

I just found this video! It's very informative. I'm a kayaker and this may be new information, but they do make women's drysuits with a pee zipper around the back so you can take a pee or even a poo break if you're a woman.

Dry suits are meant to be worn with PFD, if you didnt realise that your stupid

Brilliantly explained.
