@@Lukikkite there are several on ebay in different size and capacity you need lithium 3.7v which matches then. I also bought one smaller from aliexpress but they are not that good quality and least only for around 3hours. I bought one with 25mm x 14mm x 4mm wihich has 110 which lasts for around 5 hours. www.ebay.de/itm/255510046348?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=707-127634-2357-0&ssspo=yTbngviFSJu&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=ThKZ9mp8Tu6&var=555806675233&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

That is a north hyprid 5"2 Model 2018. It can be use as a directional/surfboard like others and also with a foil. Little downside it have 500gramm more weight to normal directional version but overall a great board if you want to safe money or space in your luggage ;)

@@TomKitesurf-Passion thank you ☺️

@@philipp6372 die kite attitude universal bar mit stopper und dann depowered um ca den weg des stoppers plus kleinen chicken loop dadurch gewinnt man ca 15-20cm da die bar viel depower weg hat.

One day

Its called north hyprid 2018 in 5"3 lengh 🤟

@@YegorAndreenko i think overall maybe hyperlink because of more constant power ,lift and upwind ability. When you care about easy and fast landing & starting and maybe more stability i would go for the peak. Always depends on the wind and area. For me i would stay with my peak because of super easy handling(also when its complete crashed)

@@stefancz9336 yes correct its gargano

@@BovanBoch ja klar ich werde versuchen meine Erfahrung weiter zugeben aber natürlich bin ich hier selbst noch am anfang 🤘🙃

@@sauce729 yes with 13m you get very fast overpowered. My limit was from 4kts to 12kts with 70kg with 1150cm² wing

@@TomKitesurf-Passion seems about right. There’s a huge difference in force between 4 and 12kn. I haven’t used my 11m peak for kite foiling yet. I mainly use the FS Hybrid

@@BovanBoch servus ja also 3-4 bft sollten dicke ausreichen. Der peak ist aber speziell sprich wenn die bar und die steuerleinen keine spannung haben(bar nach vorne geschoben) oder eben den adjuster komplett depowered(komplett zu dir gezogen daher die steuerleinen links und rechts länger als die mittleren) dann hat er wenig lenkkräfte. Beim peak würde ich eigentlich nicht depoweren sondern nur über die bar nach vorne schieben dann ollte er fast drucklos sein und er flattert am hinteren ende. Probier es erstmal selbst aus beim letzten video von mir mit dem 8er peak kann man es auch gut erkennen. Ich selbst hab den peak4 in 5m gefühlt ist es bei kleineren Größen eher so das er sich depowered weniger gut lenken lässt

@@TomKitesurf-Passion was würde passieren wenn ich die Steuerleinen Rechts und links durch die Knotenleiter kürzer anknüpfen tuh also die Steuerleinen sind schon im letzten oberen Knoten angeknüpft

@@BovanBoch er hätte dann grundsätzlich mehr power und würde früher auf die steuerbefehle reagieren da mehr am wind. Optimal sollte es so sein beim peak bar ganz mach vorne kein druck tuch flattert komplett. Bar ganz zu einem hergezogen minimal backstall nach hinten(kite fällt irgendwann rückwärts runter)

@@TomKitesurf-Passion ok alles klar Ich danke dir da muss ich wohl erstmal etwas rum experimentieren. Ich sollte vielleicht auch mal die leinen kontrollieren ob alle 4 gleich lang sind

@@TomKitesurf-Passion Wollte mal fragen ob du ein Video machen kannst wo du deine settings zur Kite Attituide Bar und dem Peak 5 machen kannst mit ein paar Erklärungen. So können andere Anfänger und ich viel lernen.

Hey i think its a cool kite for just foiling super easy because stays in the air like a champ in around 4kts. It 8m in my opinon the best size. Its my go to kite when i snowkite because auf safety and range but also fun when foiling.

thankyou for you tipps will keep that in mind next time (of course i did already :P )

Würde definitiv erst mit dem 1000er Flügel beginnen. Bei mir war es so das ich zwar zum fahren gekommen bin aber an Wenden/Halsen nicht zu denken war da mir das Gefühl gefehlt hat. Wenn man es dann mal raus hat geht das viel leichter auch mit kleinen Flügeln. Zudem die großen Flügel kann man auch leicht wieder verkaufen und dann gegen einen kleineren eintauschen. Ich fahre jetzt den 800er Flügel(und merk keinen Unterschied für Mich außer natürlich die Vorteile wie schneller und beim springen)

@@stijnvanroessel it could be that the charge controller is damaged or battery. I bet on the battery maybe you find a similar battery on ebay/battery stores with same size/voltage and change it.

Before i had a normal sprapless surfboard shaped the only reql difference what i noticed that maybe on tricks when you jump and grab the board you feel the difference but not a big deal just got a stronger grab with my hands now 😅 i used the board in waves up to 2meters and is super fun and you still able to do quick turns. Im super happy with the combination so far. I thing from fone is also a hyprid and splitted maybe also a option when you travel much by plane

@@TomKitesurf-Passion Thank you Tom for your prompt reply. I think I will buy one ! thank you

@@thomascaratge8822 you will have alot of fun also in lightwind when all other struggling to start with the foil 😉

i love the board is super fun in waves and on foil it around 3.7kg so 0.5kg heavier then "normal" foil boards but what is cool the nice uplift in very low wind that helps alot to get up. In my latest video i described that. Fly Safe!

All depending on your style. Lei kite are much more responsive but nice foil kites like flysurfer sonic or ozone have super lightwind abilities and super much hangtime when jumping

Vielen dank das lange hybrid board macht da sehr viel aus fast mehr wie ein großer flügel. Bin umgestiegen seit 4wochen suf 800cm² und geht ähnlich früh bis 6kts aber entscheidend ist wirklich erst hochzukommen und da hilft einfach das board unglaublich 🤘🫣

Eher weniger kann bei fön aber schon auch gehen wie alle seen im Oberallgäu. Sichere Bank ist im sommer eigentlich nur drr walchensee mit der thermik gerade zum foiln geht immer ab 11uhr oder spätnachmittags meist nochmal

Hey, ich wollte jetzt nächste Tage mal den Walchensee ausprobieren, so wie du es empfohlen hast. Welchen Spot würdest du dort empfehlen als Foil Einsteiger?

@@michaeloberthur2206 als einsteiger solltest du am besten an die halbinsel "zwergerl" dort hat man einen schönen kiesstrand und eine fläche zum aufbauen. Wichtig je nach windrichtung norder oder NW(meistens) solltest du bei starten erstmal raus bodydraggen und abstand zum ufer gewinnen. Und nie unterhalb höhe des startstrands fallen da dort der wind dann schwächer wird. Viel Spaß

Vielen Dank für die Tipps!!!

⁠ moin, Tom, eine Frage noch: wo findest du die besten Infos zum Föhn am Walchensee? Oder kann man da zu einer bestimmten Tageszeit immer mit Thermik rechnen? Habe Donnerstag/Freitag endlich Zeit einen Trip dorthin zu planen, wenn das nicht hinhaut muss ich halt in die Alpen Viele Grüße, Michael

Hey danke dir, hatte mit einem pansh A15 leichtwind matte angefangen aber am besten nen 3strud kite nehmen der peak war zum austesten bei leichtwind. Am besten 10-12qm bei 12-15kts ist perfekt zum start. Viel Spaß auf dem wasser!

I used just a short line of copper around 1mm fixed which fits in the zylinder where the original part was in...an still holds well until today 😀

Im sure you just need to check the voltage and mha(capacity) and of course dimensions to fit in the case. Im sure on ebay there are all kind of litium batterys to find. My was still ok and after over 6 month still ok. After 2 hours session battery is at 75%

Thankyou in meantime i learned alot the hard way...next is to switch again to a smaller wing from 1150 to 800cm² 😀

Yes there are 2 near the peer one is surfmotion.com from peter müller

also, which backpack are you using to fit 2 peaks? I'm searching for one

Wind was from 8-20kts depending which side if the Mountain. The bagback is from simond Modell "Alpinism 33" like it alot even in sommer

By the way if you want to make quicker turns on the lip of the waves just steer your kite faster and switch hands on the bar whilst pushing with your back foot..

@@carlosdemosteyrin314 yes of course but what i experience so far is that there are very rare days with the perfect conditions but you also have to be thankfull for the not so perfect days and even you can have fun there too with some shorter tags 👌🤙

You are right we need to also care about safety of swimmers around. Because of that i exactly start at the marked kiting/surf area at the beach between the red/yellow boje ;) and also give the kids a call to please leave the Area which also the guy from the surf school did. Fly safe

Btw why you never try reverse relaunch or to pull a front and a back line? Usually these are the best in low wind

Overall yes, the only downside of this bar is the too small swivel. So when you do a lot of looping it might anoy you from time to time. Its a good bar but most time i use my north or cabrinha bar.

@@giorgio4660 yes i try but no chance the conditions where really unstable and when the gust hits me it was faster to relaunch the "normal" way ;)

my experience so far in low wind is (all with my 1.150cm² wing my weight 73kg) : Flysurfer Peak4 13m => 4kts (min) 8kts (fun) 13kts (limit) Flysurfer Peak5 8m => 6kts (min) 8kts (fun) 16kts (limit) North Reach 2020 11m => 7kts (min) 10kts (fun) 20kts (limit) North Reach 2021 13m => 6kts (min) 8kts (fun) 16kts (limit) Cabrinha FX2 11m => same as reach 11m Cabrinha FX2 8m => 8kts (min) 12kts (fun) 20kts (limit)

@@TomKitesurf-Passion i still find minimun wind way too fun 🤩 the risky sesh where a swim it’s dangerously possible…. The important thing is that the sun is up and that when i fall i swimm enough fast to get to the foilboard with strong current. The curve mt is 1050cm2 anyway 😉

@@giorgio4660 yes thats true...atm im more on bigair(bit this is about our winter temp around 5degrees ;) ) btw: (maybe the changed with the new line!? Anyway need a smaller wing around 900 cm² would be great for jumping and more speed) The M-T has a 73 cm wingspan, 1150 cm², 2.0 cm thick for a volume of 1.1L. Mounted with a 39 cm Curve stab, this is a surf foil for good and light people.

@@TomKitesurf-Passion it’s 1050, 1150 it’s the “surface feeling cm2”😉 Yes they changed the lines, I’ve bought it like a month ago in sale for 299€ but I still have to try it as we had only strong wind ( still wearing 4/3 in south italy mate ahahah ) The curve mt is more a setup for beginners kitefoil, easy and good for either lightweight or heavyweight riders, it can be the first foil or a nice option and not challenging for someone that already foiled in older stuff. If you search a great foil for bigair look at the gong fluid xxs, it’s a 650cm2 but the gong customer service strongly suggested it to me as next future step even if I weight 100kg as these are a bit thicker and have a lot more lift than the old generation; I talked to two riders who had the old gen fluid st (it’s like the 700 or 750) for boosting and after some times they had to buy something smaller because early or later you understand you need a small foil to boost well and be less op ( in gka you can see 440/550 foil very thin in fact, like the gong ypra s xs ) 😁🤟 Edit: they also changed the stabs, you lose 2/3 of drag and earn a lot of glide with the new ones, a big jump even here ! 😁

@@giorgio4660 ok cool seems i also have to write them. My first foil was a zeeko mit 650cm² was hell to learn then i switched to the curved MT (was so super easy and train some tacks) In (South)Germany atm we wearing 6/4 with additional 2mm Hoodie-Tanktop ;) When the next good wind window is open the i travel to Grado Pineta for some hopefully good bigair sessions ;). If you have me a good tip or another nice spot nearest to munich in italy let me know ;) (normaly in summertime we travel down to Apulia (Vieste)

Vielen dank ist mir nach der session auch aufgefallen lag an der 5ten leine musste ich um ca 5cm verlängern jetzt fliegt er smoother 😀

Ist in der nähe von Kaufbeuren vor Irsee. Und test gerne kleine gebiete im Vorallgäu aus. Ist ein guter Augleich vorallem um die natur zu genießen

13m north reach modell 2021 very nice kite also for bigair or even waven riding in around 13kts

Nice! Got the 12m 22 recently but only tried it out on a twintip so far :) looks promising I can tell that was real light wind 😅

@@zscap yes great kite also had the 2020 modell in 11m super size and fun kite for everything. Now i switched to cabrinha FX2 from 2022 (because of big sale) and these kites a very similar to reach in handling

i live near munich/bavaria germany - but the spot is in italy/bozen

should be possible my weight is 73kg, i found for me the best combination is 5 & 8m peak(peak5 i use) but also saw the 6m peak 5 often and seems a good compromise if you only want one snow kite. in 10kts should be around 15km/h in flat terrain. 15 kts should start the fun with the 6m ;)

Yes i do but i reinforced the places with dacron tape were the 5th line goes through. On flat terrain you do not need the 5th line anyway but its good option when you are in mountains and what to pull the kite to you and easy relaunch it again with kind of drift launch 🤘

@TomKitesurf-Passion thanks that's a good advice, I live in Bulgaria and the snow here survives only in high places and this 5th line is a great tool to land it anywhere. Enjoy it and happy new year with a lot of snow over there!

Sadly atm is also very less snow below 1000m. Best chance is italy/bozen rittner horn. In germany not really much snow because of warm stormy weather the last days.

Thank you very much for your answer Tom@@TomKitesurf-Passion

At the beginning around 15kts later wind picked up up to 20kts but very depends on the Terrain
