Touwtje af en toe insmeren met kaarsvet of sexwax, werkt prima! Bij knapte mijn eerste ook na een keer of 10, nu doe ik een stuk langer met het touwtje. Feit is wel dat het systeem niet echt lekker werkt.

REFLECTORS AIM AT THE FUTURISTICI PLANS TO YOU OF DAVID PILKINGTON
IT EXPLAINS DIRECTOR And DESIGNER Of BRAND OZONE: "US IMPEGNAMO TO REDESIGN the BORDERS OF THIS DISCIPLINE WITH NEW WINGS, INSPIRED To the FLIGHT Of the BIRDS. LIKE In the CASE Of PLANS SEAGULL And BRUCE WAYNE ".
Edited by
MONICA VIGANO'
In the market odierno kite economic in contained amounts are numerous companies in a position to producing, simply copying the design of a already existing product. All that renders the sport more and more accessible persons. But it does not play to favor of the process of development of the design of the kite ones and the emergency of the systems. To use economic materials and design given means to you to render kite a sport not reliable and not to resolve the problematic ones met from the customers during the year.
The creed of the Ozone design is that one to continue to redesign the limits of the kite ones with always fresh and innovative ideas.
David Pilkington, designer of the model Instinct di Ozone and owner of the company, is in the enviable position of having the office design in the same one location in which they come produced the kite ones. Moreover, beach can less carry out its tests on one than 3 hours from the productive center. Shining idea can have one and transfer it from the computer to the plotter and finally to the productive plan in little minuteren. And within the end of the day it can have ready kite to make to fly. David, that it boasts a doctorate in aviation, has the possibility to take advantage of its acquaintances of the areodinamica and the shape of the wings in order to support its inventions of design.
Between its more radical ideas we find the "plan gull" ("Project Seagull"), that it takes cue from the impeccable flight of the birds.
"the idea", has declared David, "was that one to produce kite more efficient than those existing joining, practically, two single ones kite. A structure, insomma, than did not demand excessive wind in order to fly and guaranteed one performance not monotona. I ask excuse for the Seagull name, but also the model Ford GT40 has been therefore called because of a flower!". It has then added David: "the Seagull was amusing to use and worked decidedly well. But it still needed of many tests for being able scovare the defects or the points to improve. And this is the reason for which it has not represented linens-up of our kite ones ".
But also after to have concluded the final tests on the model, David has not given peace. Its inventiveness has carried it to insert in the plan new improvements and, after some nights to see and see again Batman, the Project Bruce Wayne has created. "To the times my head does not want to leave an idea alone!", David has ironized. "If to join two kite entirety it worked, why it would not have had to be therefore also with three, that they would have rendered the structure still more efficient? This was the point of departure of my idea. And after hours passages to try to make to very work the software of design beyond its abilities, I have obtained the shape of the kite Arc. And they are successful to convince the production, that it is accustomed to my madnesses, to realize the model. That once again it has worked, flying also with wind nearly absent, although has demanded more modifications of the Seagull ". "If I am still working on both models", it has concluded David, "you will not never know it. Of sure I must find a name better than Seagull ".

Thanx voor de reaktie, ziet er allemaal goed uit. Moet wel goed te doen zijn voor paar dagen, Transavia vliegt er btw vanuit rotterdam paar keer per week naartoe en dan sta bijna op de kite-spot.

Denk dat we een en ander wel in perspectief moeten zien. Kijk er zijn natuurlijk veel meer mensen die bijvoorbeeld voetballen, dus het aantal mensen dat hierdoor op de EHBO beland is natuurlijk ook veel groter. Ik denk dat je deze sporten pas kan vergelijken als je een beetje inzicht hebt in het aantal beoefenaars van de sport en het aantal ongevallen. Bovendien is het verschil in de ernst van het letsel ook aanwezig volgens mij. Denk dat als je dit allemaal vergelijkt je er dan pas iets over kan zeggen. Ik denk zelf dat kitesurfen potentieel wel degelijk gevaarlijker is dan bijvoorbeeld voetbal of hockey, hoeveel ongevallen met dodelijke afloop zijn er bij bijvoorbeeld voetbal of hockey in de afgelopen 2 jaar geweest? Denk dat het met kitesurfen heel erg belangrijk is dat je weet waar je mee bezig bent en geen onnodige risico's neemt. Dus idd niet met een 12 gaan spelen in 30kts+, als je hier verstandig mee omgaat is het risico op een ongeval denk ik niet veel groter dan met andere sporten. Dus ik denk dat wij niet altijd overdrijven.
