Hi Grashoppers, who has some skill from knotty tires and which one ? And how that only front or front and rear too ?shehatesmyhobbies - 9-12-2013 at 10:51 AM
I use smooth tires or grooved tires on grassy fields, not knobby tires. You don't want TOO much grip or over you will goice kiter - 9-12-2013 at 12:35 PM
I use grooved PL extra wide wheels, great slide fast spin (my be
a little small on saw-edged ground) -hmmm that's well.
but
it was the basis loose overpower and in the unexpected hard squall . sash rip - not too funny
I want less unexpected spinn out in upwind course , yes i 'll more grip
better steering out so more grip on the front, more perseverance at the rear

Many moons ago I used EuroTrax knobbly tyres and found them exceptional on grass. True, if it's dry then you won't be able to slide so easily. On wet
grass you can still slide if you want to but theres a big difference in grip.
These tyres can hold a larger kite/more power which makes for faster upwind travel.
The Eurotrax are not cheap but you'll have big fun on grass and sand. I've always regret selling mine. The noise they make on hard sand is electric.
On the downside, they can pick up lines very easily. Keep your handles well away from the tyre.

Well , I think so. I have to buy 3 new tyres...
The doctor tell me, I have 4-5 month for full order . So I can make a new fron and down tube (if I can pick up the 1 kg hammer... I do not know my
shirt alone now )...

I've got one that is grippy, the others that are slippery.

Do you find this helps at all? If so, how?ice kiter - 15-12-2013 at 04:41 AM
Hi Mike,
this front tyre give enough grip/pattern stains well on gras ? I was watching EuroTrax and Kenda Scorpion.... but when this works well I can buy a
cheaper quad tyre .
I have to buy 3 new tyres...
