  3. look every one, i have owned both G1 & G2 and the fact is they need more wind than an L.E.I I am currenty going well on North Rhinos... much more low wind to get up and going/ the foils just need more wind L.E.Is are the one.

  18. Cheers people I have taken the two fins off last weekend and it did make the board easier to turn (Cheers Richard!) The major problem is allways being blown onto the beach maybee its just practice I get pulled off the edge when the kite is high but if i keep it around 6ft off the water I can hold it better. will keep trying with current board for abit (this will save the pennys!)
