Wie müsste man bei diesem einteiligen Segel die Kettfäden vom Tuch ausrichten?

Gruss
Aldo

Like being said above, it needs to be aligned to the spine indeed.
I'll add it to the construction notes!

Zitat von Vitjo

Wie sind denn Ul und STD bestabt?
Sehe ich das richtig, dass oben im Foto die Standoffs viel weiter auseinander sind als im Bauplan? :O

That is an old picture. The picture in the link is changed to the new specs based on the UL/SUL frame dimensions and bridle. The standoffs are closer together and the centercross is higher on the spine.

UL frame: 3pt Leading Edge and Lower Spreaders, 6mm structil Spine and Upper Spreader.

STD frame: 5pt Leading Edge and Lower Spreaders, 6mm structil Spine and Upper Spreader.

Magnet #2

Looks great IMHO

Hope to fly it today or tomorrow.

Wow, that's even lighter... don't you miss some mass in tricks?

Nice build, i like the colors!

I've been flying the Magnet in the past 3 weeks. Didn't take long to adjust to the smaller inputs it requires. Rather precise in lines and corners and there's a nice ammount of feedback on the lines, but without excessive pull and speed. Gusty wind isn't really a problem. Very capable in the tricks department.

There's going to be a Magnet in my bag very soon!

I'm bringing the kite to Stella Plage next weekend. Feel free to have a go.

Hi Mischa,
what type of frame is in your SIN SUL?

I framed my SIN UL with 3pt black diamond QS, p90/p100 LK, 6mm structil Spine, 5 mm OQS and it goes just as low as my other SUL's.
Great kite, love it.

Bigger version

Indeed, it's a matter of preference. I like to have the Leaders on the kite, others just make a pair of leader on each line-set.

I've decided to move the content of the P2 website to my wordpress page. This way it's easier to maintain (even mobile).
The old link still works, but here's the new link:

Do you have a picture of your build, WaveTwista?

Great!

Now available:
P2 t-shirts, hoodies and beanies.

Danke, Ralf.

Looking good!

SugarBaker has started building his two P2's on GWTW forum:

Good to hear, Ralf.

I've experimented with 20 grams in the tail as well. I use 17 grams now, because i like the little 'pause' between the backflip and the deep backflip.
When you throw the kite on it's back it takes a while before the kite falls deep and this way you can decide what you like. The downside is that Inverses are very difficult. With more weight they are easier.

Did you make a photo of your P2 in flight?

:H:

also very nice, Ralf!

Thanks for the Review, Bimi!
Glad you liked it.

I would love to have an english translation for the website!

Like Bimi is saying, there's not that much pull but there is a nice feedback on the lines. Doesn't feel overly light. Inputs are quitte small.

Strong points:
- Fade and backflip are stable (lifters possible)
- Roll's up both slowly and fast, also 2 pop yoyo's.
- Frame stay's in shape even in high winds
- Fast taz's
- almost unbreakable

Weak(er) points:
- Slotmachines can be hard (wingwraps) when slack not managed perfectly
- Backspins need to be guided

Hi Moonl1te,
what do you want to know?

Zitat von Krijn

both very good looking P2's!

i like the fact that you both used moonietape (or something like that) between the upperspreader and sail

looks a lot better than a big black dot

I do not agree, i always like the black dacron details in a kite.
