    Thank you Petar for your tips. True, sun light will damage basically everything, not just the kite, as you usually read.

      Yes one day I will do the tutorial about jumping higher and how to helilop, the plan it was to make it really soon, but as I'm not getting enough financial support my production is going slower, as I spend all my investments I have to go back to work for earning money for living, like that there is not much time I have for producing new tutorials.

    Regarding screws - some people use removable threadlocker (such as threadlocker 242) as it makes it less likely to lose your screw AND less likely to have corrosion that locks it into place. Don't use the super heavy-duty that is hard to remove.

      I put teflon on my screws

    • @davidsuzukiispolpot
      @davidsuzukiispolpot ปีที่แล้ว

      @@christopherjohnmercado1568 What form is that? Is it teflon tape as in plumber's tape? I personally thought the threadlocker was a good idea as not only will it impede corrosion, it will reduce the likelihood of the bolts backing out out without you noticing it. That can happen a lot from the vibrations and flexing of the kitesurfing on a continuing basis, and losing a bolt is a major headache. I lost a fin on my directional last trip and it was a major bummer. Now when I install the FCS-1 fins, I install them and then torque up and bend on the fins on land, and then retorque them. They really do back out a lot even just after pushing on the fins and board even before hitting the water once. At least on a twin-tip, the fins are quite common, but not on an older directional.

      @@davidsuzukiispolpot yes, the plumber's tape. This is specially good when your stainless screws are quite wornout and are a bit loose. They protect the screws from corrosion and give them a tighter fit. I guess the threadlocker might also work. But I love how the teflon seals the screws up from salt water.

    For the North Americans here - sweet water is European English for FRESH WATER

      Ha! Funny comment! It made me smile. However, here in England we say “FRESH WATER” too! I’ve never heard of sweet water. Mind you, I shouldn’t criticise Petar; his English is a lot better than my Serbo-Croat!

      @@beau_geste I am glad you enjoyed the comment even though I didn't intend it to be funny. My father was Polish so it was a term I heard often but I didn't know what it meant at first.
