Mario,
Sorry that nobody replied to your original post. Sometimes post slip thru the ...

There's been much discussion of which kites are best for beginners and best for tricks, but I've not seen much about which New Tech kite is the best for precision. By a precision kite, I mean one that ...

Any ballpark on when the French Kiss will be available? Will there be any prototypes at Outer Banks Very Happy

By the way, the graphics work for me--definitely evoke the French Connection whi ...

Below are pics that Chris posted in May of 2005 of the prototype model of the French Kiss kite. It's the little sister/brother of the French Connection. It measures 210 cm wide, whereas the French Con ...

I'm bumping up this thread so that people can see the original pics of the French Connection and the French Kiss.

Yeah Troy,
I am lucky to have Dodd in my back yard and to be able to fly his protos.
Having "The Man" for a friend helps feed my addiction.

I have approx 40 hours on this proto, I can and will do ...

I have been wanting to reply to this thread since Troy posted it,but I could not make up my mind!

Cool ...

Mine, in case you're interested, is the French Connection, and a few kites I have been working on and off over the last year with. The FRench Kiss is quickly becomming the kite of choice for me, along ...

Out of all the NTK sport kites that you own or have tried, which one is your favorite? Why? Very Happy

Nice review! Thanks for writing it!

Our Team TKO flys the Desire UL most of the time, in winds up to 12 mph.

Since we don't do many slack line tricks in our team routines, I found a tun ...

My husband's seam on his New Tech Double Vision delta is coming apart near the pockets the spreader goes in. Can I sew this back up and do I need special thread?

Thanks, Vic

Yes, you can s ...

Does any one know what the line specs are for the line included with the New Jam?

Brian,
Are you still flying the JOJO ET's? Very Happy

I believe most are glued on. It is too easy to lose parts that are not glued. To remove a nock, try using a flat head screw driver or a razor blade to sheer it off. To help prevent such an occurance, ...
