It is availible. There was a guy with a Blade III 10.5 with UDS at Silvaplana. Snowkite WorldCup. The larger sizes must have a different bridle. But is the 6.6 one of them?
Hi,
I would like to have a UDS System for my Blade III 6.6. I've heard that there is a difference between the bridle of the smaller Blades and the larger once. Who knows from which size its possible to use the UDS?

Hi,
a friend of mine is looking for a new kite. He has got a Buster 4.0 for a long time. So he's an intermediate flyer, I think. For this windspeed, which Blade would you take? I think there is a big difference between Buster 4.0 and Blade 4,9, isn't it?
So whats you opinon??

Yea, thats right. I would never let the handles go in such a situation it would make me falling down.
Its now a lot easyer to understand what happened. At first I was totaly confused cause I couldn't understand where such a power comes from so suddenly. And which long distance I moved in the air.
So there is nothing special which is a garantee for a soft landing? What about a soft brake to keep the kite in front of me? Or could this create some extra power?
Sure, Savety first. I'll never go out in 5 Bft. with my Blade.
But we had only 3 Bft. and suddenly there where this gust. s**t happens. What to do when I'm in such a trouble????
Hi together,
today I had a unexpectet high lift with my Blade 6.6. Very gusty winds. It was like a invisible hand catched me throwing me throug the air. Spectators said that I was about 8 meter or higher in the air. I thought I have to die. I don't know what I've done during this jump but the kite didn't stall (luck) so I got a soft landing.
Back to earth I landed the kite and stored them away. It wasn't nice, it was damn high. So can you tell me what I've to do if such things happens? Do I have to brake the kite? Is there a special place in the wind window where the kite must be placed?
If the kite gets behind me, it will stall and I'll fall down like a stone.
So what I've to do in thge air for a good landing?
Please help me. I really like my Blade but today the kite really shocked me.

Hi togehter,
I've just ordered a Acaneos/BHI FIberFLex deck with MultiChannel Trucks to learn landboarding. I'll use my Blade 6.6 for boarding, but its only for lower winds. I think about a new kite which I can use in stronger winds. Not strong, but stronger... What do you think? Does a Frenzy 03 still makes sence or is the 04 so much better? I'll get a good price for the 03 now, I think. The 04 is to expensive for me at the moment.
I thought about these kites:
1) Blade III 4.0
2) Frenzy 03 7.3 (or 9.5?)
3) U-Turn Oxigen Prof. 5.0
4) JoJo RM 5000
All kites I decited for 15mp/h windspeed and above. Which would you take for landbaording?

Nice Boards.... And also not very expensive. But I'm a little afraid of starting this new hobby. I'm afraid of bracking my leg or ankle or something else. This heavy bindings on the nosnow boards aren't them dangerous? What do you think about the risk.
Perhaps a buggy would be better for me but I've only a littel VW Polo. I think the buggy does not fit.

Ok than, lets get back to my first question. As you said bigger wheels are better on bumpy grounds. Is it possible to put the 230cm tires of the kavadeck at the Flexdeck or Airdeck? I would like to have a shorter Board (less then 1m) couse of jumping.
Hi together....
...what do you all think about the conditions for a good place to go landboarding? Here in germany aren't such good fields like in the UK as I could see in the gallery.
So are conditons like on a soccer field nessesary or are little bumps ok?
What Du you think about Flexifoil Boards. I thought about the Flexdeck.

I think my first try was ok. I'll not go out in conditions which are too difficult for me. And I'll never fly the blade in more than 10-12mph wind in the first time. And I'll never go alone.
I think I'll learn when I try hard.
Sure I'll be very careful. By the way: On my first flight I tried out the two knots at the brake bridle. The longer one was too loose the knot near the kite was too tight. Is it right that I have to add knots in order to find the right length?
