Video Upwind on a Flexboardz Haize

I have been trying to figure out where I fit in as a team rider. I am just like most of you, an average guy with average skills who loves the sport. I think that makes me qualified to showcase how Flexboardz are great for starting on and perform great for the average rider. The do so much more than that but they are great boards for a beginner and average guy too.

Video is of a light-wind day with my Flexboardz Haize on a grassy field and my SA 2.5 19m. Easy to go upwind and had a great time just cruising and carving back and forth. Enjoy!

Nice vid....

Did you rig your board up per the kiting set up or is it the stock set up?

This is the stock setup. I have since changed it a little by putting both spacers on one side giving it more spring and clearance. The kite setup is supposed to be more like kiteboarding or snowkiting. I haven't tried that yet because I am used to the normal landboard stance. It is really pretty to change up with an allan wrench and open ended wrench.

I am toying with a leg mount to get more board footage. I agree with you though. I changed my helmet mount to try and get better angles but it still isn't doing what I want.
