Welcome back guys to Liquid Blue Cabarete . The past couple of week we have been trying to bring in some new valuable tips and tricks for this new sport called Winging. Everyone has been asking us what kind of waist leash there is and if we have some DIY and affordable waist leash solutions for you! Of course we do! Waist leashes nowadays costs around 50 USD or more. We now have the perfect solution that is relatively free or it can be very inexpensive for most people. Most kites, specifically F-One Kites , come with a velcro belt that could be perfectly used as a waist leash on the budget. You can basically wrap this belt around your waist and depending on your size it will eventually fit. How does this work? Many of you might be wondering …

Welcome back to our blog! Charles Osterlund here from Liquid Blue Cabarete We have received a couple of questions lately regarding these two very similar in name but very different water-sports: wing-foiling & windsurfing. Are wing-foiling & windsurfing the same sport? Are they really similar? Check this video below or keep reading for a more detailed explanation! The answer to this question is very hard to elaborate but we can say yes and no.

This is one of the main differences I felt after trying both disciplines. As …

Hello from Charles with Liquid Blue Cabarete! Today we managed to finally test a new protective piece of equipment. A new helmet! The Simba Surf Helmet which is cool looking, light and protective. The helmet comes in different colors and sizes to fit any size head and anyones color preference. My initial test on land proves that it is definitely an interesting contender in terms of premium helmets that should be considered by anyone who is actually looking to protect themselves. Now I managed to test this helmet on the water. The helmet was super light, fit perfectly, muffles wind though makes communication clear and was a fashion statement out there! I believe the helmet will work for all water sports and even we have seen has the chance to work with further accessories like amphibian spex water goggles or …

Hello from Charles with Liquid Blue Cabarete! Thinking to Wing Foil? Already Wing Foiling though having some issues getting standing? Want a potential solution? Watch this video and reach out to us after for any further questions/comments- A lot of people only try one way of standing up and struggle. Depending what stage you are at in your development, the spot you ride at, your strengths and weaknesses (stiff knees, sore ankles)… you might benefit from one style or another. Personally I believe it is important to be aware that there is more than one way to do something! This video will show you how to do three different ways though on land. Getting on the knees sideways to the board’s nose Straight with the board on your knees Standing & then bringing your wing up (in my opinion it …
