In Acces #5 zullen we een uitgebreid verslag kunnen terugvinden van deze nieuwe kite
Hier een kort verhaaltje dat te maken heeft met de nieuwe F-One kite, de Source. Deze 2 lijns kite moet het
samen met Stand Up Paddling gaan maken.
The Verdict on SUKing&
The wind played ball today, we have had between 6 and 10 knots all day. All the Source kites were rigged and ready to go on the beach, well after a fair bit of faffing about. Dare I admit I had a quick paddle while I was hanging around? Probably not!
The Kite itself is pretty cool, very much a C shape with an X bridle to help keep it stable and improve turning. Three lines run from the squared off wingtip to the flying lines and the whole thing looks like a vast improvement over the two line kites of old. It has three thin struts and a low profile leading edge, to save on weight and help the kite fly in light winds, one pump comes as standard. The bar is really simple, two lines and a large harness loop, a wrist leash and some oshit handles, what more would you need?
