Working out force on trucks

specificpig — Sat, 19 May 2012 18:56:34 GMT

I am interested to know how much force is imparted onto landboard trucks when landing a jump.

I weigh 11 stone, If my kite drops me from 3 metres up how much force is imparted on each axle when I land?

Thanks

Sore kites!(not knees)

creed — Sat, 19 May 2012 17:35:24 GMT

Managed to guillotine my 12.5 ion straight down the centre strut last weekend :mad:

sorekites<<< Made a mustard job on repairing it. Mick from sore kites is a top bloke. He made sure he had it repaired for me by the weekend as the wind was looking good. His suggestion not mine :D

He also reinforced the leading edge stitching with four kevlar patches two of which were free of charge! Also threw in some repair patches and tape and give me some good pointers on small repairs if ever I need to do them.

All this was half the price I was quoted by another place.

salt stains in leading edge

connor44 — Sat, 19 May 2012 12:39:00 GMT

i have salt stains in several sections of my leading edge on my ozone zephyr 17m.basically wasnt sure whether to try and clean it up and remove the stain as i was afraid of damaging it.

anyone know if the salt damages or rots away slowly at the fabric or is it safer to leave it there or clean it up??

any advice would be great
cheers

Fixed Bridle: Pansh sprint 2.3m

Lynnlad — Sat, 19 May 2012 08:14:30 GMT

As per title a 2.3 pansh sprint in red, only used 5 times max in winds 25-30 (it has a much higher range than this, unfortunatly the winds dont come out to play when im free)Its in great condition and many can vouch for my sales history and care of kit.

Brought for an introduction into "race kites" but now feel i can progress further.

Pics can be sent if you send your email.

Selling kite only, but may be able to work some handles in.. ill have to check that.

Unsure of the market for these so pm offers.

Thanks
