For the life of me I have no idea what you are on about ! Horses and carts ? Is it an OR slag off ?
Lets put it simply because you pretend to have no idea why your on a 3 strut kite - because of its light Aluula weight and performance is better than a 5 strut or other brands heavier material kites.
Thats called Research and Development - the same reason we dont use 2 line bars anymore.
If "ANY" brand including Ocean Rodeo develops a great performing Aluula 1 strut kite - it will make your heavy 3 strut obsolete.
Technology is a wonderful thing isnt it
Old thread I know .. just on single strut Aluula concept .. don't think they need to reduce weight further with single strut. Current 10m 12m roams 3 struts stay in the air in wind so light you don't have the power to actually get up on foil .. so power is the limiting factor, not whether kite is flyable.
Agree with that...... and I'd point out that there is quite a big difference in weight between the roam aluula and the juice DLAB...
If there was a juice DLAB 14 meter - you could approximate in the absence of there being an actual direct size comparison available - it would weigh in between the 13 and the 15 or about 2.9kg
Roam 14 = 2.5kg.
DLAB alulula 14m is 16% heavier..............................
If you average out the roam instead - 12 and 14 meter to guess a 13 meter weight..... the roam 13 would be 2.4kg Vs 2.73 in the juice 13.
DLAB aluula juice 13 - 14% heavier..
