Lewis Wilby Flymasters Event

It’s weird to think that almost a year ago I was sitting on the beach with a pen and piece of paper judging the final round of the KLB European Championships, knowing in the back of my mind that I might actually come back myself to compete.

Last year got me excited about a return to the competition scene to ride against a strong field of competitors and here I was one year later, preparing myself for the final round knowing a minimum of 4th place would wrap up the title.

Lewis Wilby becomes 2x British Champion

Powerkiteshop Team Rider Lewis Wilby reports in on his latest winning adventure.

First up was the final round of the British Championships. The third tour stop was held in Pembrey, one of the top beaches in the UK and often provides perfect conditions. On arrival the beach was flawless however there was one vital ingredient missing for a kite competition and that was good wind.

Kitelandboarding Championships Berlin

The biggest international Kitelandboarding Championship took place in the middle of Berlin on October 03 – 05, on the Tempelhofer Feld, which is the largest inner city kite flying field in the world.

Over 50 contestants from all over Europe competed in three disciplines: Race, Freestyle and Hangtime and strong winds of up to 20 knots offered perfect conditions.

Peter Lynn Synergy Flight Test

Last weekend we managed to take a test flight of the 15m Peter Lynn Synergy in 10-12 knots. 

Initial thoughts as soon as you get going on this kite is it feels like a Venom II - but it's only when you start turning and jumping the Synergy that you realise you have something different!

Peter Lynn Synergy

The Peter Lynn Synergy is the new all-round Twinskin kite from Peter Lynn Kiteboarding.

The Peter Lynn Synergy flies faster, turns tighter and jumps higher than any other medium aspect ratio Twinskin and has a slightly more aggressive flying behaviour compared to previous Twinskin designs.

Ozone Samurai 2 (II)

The replacement is the fantastic Ozone Samurai II due out for release mid April 2006!

Peter Lynn Vortex Flight Test

After a very windy day at one of our favourite beaches we managed to take a flight test with the new Peter Lynn Vortex!

This kite is really good even in the gusty conditions I had today. It turned really quick and as with all other Peter Lynn ARC style kites it doesn't want to overfly! Good de-power range with this kite - even with the wind reaching 25knots I was still able to stay upwind on my board.

Peter Lynn Venom 2 (II)

The Peter Lynn Venom II is your ticket to the world of extreme freestyle kiteboarding. Building on the success of the Venom, the Venom II is the perfect all-round freestyle kite, giving you the ability to do the tricks you have been dreaming about.

The very quick turning speed and great lift allow you to do the craziest kiteloops and handlepasses and extreme jumps.

Flexifoil Flexdeck

Flexifoil are about to release their new Flexdeck!

Following the success of the 2004 Flexdeck, there were very little changes need to be made to this already winning board, all it needed was a make-over!

Peter Lynn Vortex

The Peter Lynn Vortex is the perfect fun kite! With its very fast turning, you’ll have an excellent ride in waves, but also a great time just cruising, wake-style riding or free styling.

Kite-loops are a piece of cake. Entry-level riders will enjoy the ease in getting onto the board, as a result of the predictable nature of the Vortex. For the same reason its also easy to re-launch this kite after a crash on the water.

The Access is light, easy to use and packs small making it the perfect tool to add to a backcountry free-riders current equipment.

Back to Bogota!

After a torturous three day expedition I thought I was having a bad time but on arrival at Medellin and meeting event organizers Ines Uribe and Jairo of Yaripa, I discover that most of the other flyers from around the world on the previous day had been trying to fly in Force 8 winds and had trashed most of their kites!

Most had decided it was to be a day of rest and repair and perhaps ‘hit the town’. Around here you do that on horseback!

New MBS Boards

MBS are about to release their new range of boards.

Designed primarily for downhill boarding there are also kiteboards will no doubt set a new level in high performance boarding.  

Peter Lynn Phantom / ARC Stack

You don’t have to be flying long to discover the wind doesn’t always play when you want it! There’s nothing more frustrating than turning up at your flying site only to find that the predicted 15mph is clearly happening elsewhere.

You either turn around, and make the 120mile trip home or you do what the Powerkiteshop team do and build a 54 square metre traction beast!
