Sonics were doing really well at event. Also Fone kites with fast frenchies.Foils in top 10 were:Maxime, Theo and Axel on Custom sword wingsJulien and Rikki on Spotz2Bennie and Peter on light Levitaz ( works good in light wind but fell back when breeze picked up)Florian Gruber on new Kitefoil Australia VX Race foil ( got faster every race- more angle upwind than anybody)Super fast and close racing. However it was light breeze for 15m mostly.San Fran will show whats really working best in decent breeze.Alejandro did some GPS on the new KFA foil and got 2 knots faster and higher on the kfa compared to his spotz2.stay tuned!

Flo Gruber and Rikki were using R1 mostly 15m. Julien only used 11m Paravais kite in last races of the regatta before he was using 15m Sonics.He struggled on the Fone 12m and was looking for 11m Sonic but there was non available so he stayed on 15m Sonic pretty much the whole regatta.

I gather the new foil on the block goes OK (from results of the Italian racing leg of the racing tour).

above picture shows an extra third bridle to increase foil camber for downwind legs (apparently).

does this mean that all the other new release race foils need to be modified? R1, Elf, Sonic

Will last season's Ozone Chrono be able to be modified in the same way.

So so many questions because I have so little idea...

thanks in advance
