Hello All,
Checked out a new LHS in LA and picked up a new toy today. It was made by Kinetics, Inc and it's a hydrofoil called the Great White. Pretty spendy but I've been obsessing about 'foils since I was a little kid.
Anyways, I was wondering if anyone has had experience with this kit. I researched a bit on the web and all the forums and have not found any info on it. Apparently, the company folded sometime last year after the founder passed away. Any info, tips or tricks would be greatly appreciated.
I'm planning on building it stock at first (sans the cheesy graphics) and then upgrading the stock Magnum 480R motor. I'm still pretty new to all this but am learning slowly thanks to this board and you all.
TIA,
Jason
