OCEAN RODEO ALUULA ROAM + FPV DRONE + LIGHT WIND FOILING

[@shredinoz]

Through the lines...are you kidding me? Nice flying Reece. 👏👊

[@reeces_shredlab]

Haha, It was a risky one but it lined up so perfectly, I had to go for it!

[@dpwild328]

I liked this video right when it came out, but now that I have a drone - damn that is impressive! 🤙🏼

[@reeces_shredlab]

Thanks dude! Have fun with yours!!

[@reeces_shredlab]

What should I Buy? Just took lessons - Former windsurfer - Proficient wind foiler. Got up right away and by 3rd lesson was staying upwind. Cabrinha Contra, Drifter, MotoX 12m in 10-15 kts. 155 TT Partial to Duotone- I like my SLS wings. Bought Dacron wings then upgraded quickly. Live in SF summer 15-25+. Travel to FL Winter 10-15 and San Diego 8-12 all year. Hawaii/Texas etc… I’m 57 - Looking for stable predictable confidence building handling. Safe jumping. Nothing too fancy. Big wind range and stable in gusts. Just want to have fun and feel comfortable exploring places I visit and sailing the bay. I do (wing)foil now and playing in small surf looks fun. My wife will kill me if I get hurt… 1. Spring for Evo DLab now. Duotone site recommends 11, 9, 8 covering 7-27 kts. Good: won’t grow out of it. Can buy smaller kites. Big wind range. Good relaunch- good in light and heavy air? Concerns - Will be too squirrely/high performance to learn everything on. I won’t feel confident or comfortable. Look like a$$ with DLab as rookie. 2. Rebel SLS 14, 10, 8. Good: Seems to fit my wish list perfectly. All about stability- gust handling 5 strut and still 3.4 Kilo for 12m New design with SLS - Likely more than enough performance but not cheap! Put money into Aluula? Bad: 5 struts too heavy? Need big size in light air? Feel sluggish? Nimble enough? Am I going to outgrow? 3. Ocean Rodeo Flite A? Roam? 4. Naish Pivot? - First season on something decent and cheap THEN later get something cutting edge? Suggestions? What am I missing?

Amazing piloting and great footage ! Thx. Dont tell me that you control the camera as well ? Or it is automatically redirected on the kite ? Or you just control the drone with a fixed camera? It is very impressive

[@reeces_shredlab]

It's a fixed camera on the drone and I just point it at the kite and try to keep it in the frame!

[@Ronagery]

One more question Reece: Can we use the Roam for twintiping? How does it compare to the Flite ? Thx

[@reeces_shredlab]

Yes you can totally use it for TT. Probably not as much hang time as the Flite, but more stable when you're loaded up on it!

[@dpwild328]

Sweet! Is that one of the Hartland boys?

[@lukaszlotocki4922]

Are you saying that he was able to start and ride foil with only 10m at 5 knots or less condition? or you say 5 knots on the beach next to the wood were wind is lower? looking on the water i would say more around 10knots . Please show how you can do water start with 5 knots and 10m kite.....

[@reeces_shredlab]

Yes I stand by my words, it was 5 knots on the water, maybe 2 on land. 10 knots I would have been on my surfboard! :)

[@markabril1275]

We are a bit fed up with this BS statements of a 10 m kite riding in 5 knots, you can see in the video that there is another kite a red one flying, perhaps more kites can sail in 5 knots or perhaps not.
