That explains it a bit indeed.
having the blueprint on the bench when glueing the panels is a solution for that.

Love the smooth style and combo's

Our late friend Pierre ter Bogt introduced us to this wonderful flying spot: the enormous north beach of Burgh Haamstede in Zeeland, The Netherlands. Lars and me flew his 90Three Ultralight kite in a very nice sea breeze. We miss you, Piet!

Zwar nix wildes aber trotzdem mal schnell hier vorgestellt. Hab grade einen Köcher für meinen neu erstandenen Magnet 89% zusammengeklöppelt.

Wünsch euch allen noch einen schönen Sonntag.
Gruß
Ben

Wie vermutet kam doch noch ein Return UL (PAW) hinzu....

Nice! Added to builds page.

Both kites are now on the builds page....

The X-Masque by l'Atelier Kites is the small version of the their iconic Masque sportkite. The Rage version with it's Avia G-force Exel wrapped carbon frame is aimed at radical freestyle. Not the easiest kite to trick but very rewarding in the right wind conditions. Flown at Meijendel beach in a very nice sea breeze. Here's a little impression of a fun afternoon.

I have the same problem, but only at half-axel cascades...its hard to change it!

Very hard! It helps if you have a friend yelling at you every time you do it.

Thanks Karel!You are so right about that nasty habit of pulling across in front of the body - my only reference when starting out was the video that came with the stranger. Nobody around to tell me otherwise and now it is firmly etched into my memory. Have to try and re-learn it all, maybe I'll try some sort of restriction with those elastic rubbers used for medical rehab...

haha, yes tie your upper arms to your chest with a belt!

It's all Paul Latham's fault! Andy Preston didn't do it!

Über Backspin & co brauche ich nicht mitzureden, aber dennoch mal bewegte Bilder, damit auch diese Farbvariante mal mehr zu sehen ist:

Cool! I have to try a SUL at some point. The UL goes very low allready.

As a extra tip to add to the advice from the other comments: try not to cross your arms in front of you when doing axels and 540's. I did this as well when i came back into kite flying because it was the way a few pilots in the oldschool trickvideo's did the inputs. It works for some tricks but it will really restrict you when learning other stuff. It takes a while to unlearn, but it's worth it!!

Zitat von GiMiCX

Backspin sind 3 Wiederholungen

A backspin is a backspin. If you refer to the TP rules: Minimum three rotations is BackspinS:

The picture on the website is not correct. It's not hollow.

Short video of the Escape flown by Lars:
Quicky #1: Lars | Escape STD | IckyTV

Lars flying the Ulzburger Kites Escape Standard at the Zandmotor beach. The Escape is a open source kite designed by Birger Garbe. Great tracking, slow flight/good speedcontrol and huge wind window. The feedback is very consistent and even in stronger winds it doesn't pull very hard. Build one! You won't be disappointed.

Zitat von Ulzburger

Carlo hatte eindeutig das bessere Wetter. Es war in St. Peter Ording kühl und nebelig. Die Segel waren in der Luft recht feucht.

Wir hatten sehr konstanten Seewind, knapp unter 20km/h. Was Carlo schreibt, habe ich gestern auch merken können:
Der größere ESCAPE hat doch spürbar weniger Zug entwickelt, als der kleinere RETURN. Ich fand den ESCAPE bei der Windstärke angenehmer.

Still a cool picture!

Birger build this kite, so oi guess the length is ok.

The wind was strong when this pic was made.

Had some more flying time with the Escape STD in different wind conditions. This is such a solid kite! I love how it behaves both in light and stronger winds. Great tracking, slow flight/good speedcontrol and huge wind window. The feedback is very consistent and even in stronger winds it doesn't pull hard.

I love the taz, multilazy and comete, but almost everything is nice.

Only thing we struggle with it Spikes. Can't get them very consistent on the Escape. Maybe because of the Aurell LE.

Nice! Added to the builds page!
