  1. It does use equal length lines. I got a 10m nemi 08 and can use either of my bars with it. Both my bars have equal length lines.
  2. Ive still got my litewave f/s and i love it. It sucks in the chop and will prob need decent footstraps, but if you can get it for 50quid it might be worth it. Not ideal to learn on but i managed it. If your local spot is choppy, or your not going to get into jumping dont bother.
  3. Harlech is great for landboarding, the best spot on that particular stretch of coast. There is the odd patch of soft sand but there is plenty of big areas that are solid. There is also space, as all the sunbathers stay by the entrance, leaving nearly a mile either side which is empty.
  4. Wow. Its hypnotic.
  5. I have had my rrd "10knts" for a year now, and am still surprised how much difference it makes. I dont see the point in buying new but do think it will make more difference than a 15m.
  6. Ill check here sunday morn.
  7. Yeah sports village is best, anytime after 1030ish.
  8. Best of Kitesurf: Action CAM Nilox F-60 Kiteboarding in Tarifa (watch it in Full HD) - YouTube Not many in the Photography section seemed particularly impressed but i am well impressed with how they got some of the shots and the smoothness of all of it.
  9. You may well be right but there might be something noticeable, its got to be worth a try as the 8.5mkIV is my favorite fixed bridle and is so much fun in the right winds. I will try to get a .pdf for reference though. I hope they are on the flexi site.
  10. No i was just going to compare the lengths from one side to the other if we cannt find any tangles. Getting the bridle measurements would a good idea but i aint got a printer and have got GTA V to session.
  11. This sunday might work as there aint enough wind for the coast, pm me if you are. Ill dust the bego off and see how she is doing. Low wind will be fine for untangling or measuring bridles.
  12. Next time you go for a fly in shrewsbury give me fair warning and ill come and have a look. My money is on a twisted bridle, or poss a stretched bridle.

    Love this

    Love the rotating head shot...
  14. I have the local life guard on quick dial just in case. You get a good signal out at sea.
  15. Ive got an Aquapac one that does a good job, havent tried any others though.
  16. I will try to get up there at some point over the weekend.

    4G Intro

    I might have to try one of those Screamers. When is your next demo?
  18. the web cams on the windguru app are useful, but find the forecasts differ from the internet site.
  19. Ill say Garmish partenkirchen for the skiing, ainsdale and rhosneiger, are the only ones i recognise.

    Heads up!

    Holey crap! that was good avoiding action.
  21. It could be one of the lines wrapping around one of the bar ends. I have had that happen on many kites, trouble is its not immediately noticeable when the kite is looping and your being dragged through the water, but is easily untangled.
  22. How come met office will forecast one thing. Then cobs, which is powered by met office, says something different, and usually more accurate, then on the day in question met office change the forecast to pretty much what cobs said... Wtf . It bugs me when I waste holidays cos of a crap forecast. Windguru is usually close so I will try the paid service.
  23. Just interested in anybodys experience with paid forecasts. Are they notably more accurate? I am always suprised at the variations in forcasts and how often they are wrong. Cobs is usually closest but only one day in advance.
  24. Dont forget Harlech, as its never very busy, probably 5miles long, and has some lovely views. Only down side is the 1/2mile walk from the car park.
