Hi. Just bought some unit duotone wings (4m and 6m) and last time was out in pretty strong gusty winds, after that I had an inflammated elbow and I am already 2-3 weeks dry
Before I had ensis and did not have that problem. The unit has a big leading edge and strut and is super stiff so the gusts are pulling your arms and my joints are not the best any more with 46. Thinking to go back to the ensis or maybe the f-one swing or Airush. Can somebody tell me the stiffness/flex of these and how they behave in gusts in strong winds, do they flex sth and let the gust go or do they pull your arms? Many many thx for your help!!
The elbow might have done the same with Ensis.
My elbow issues are a result of long term wear. You don't feel it coming on, then it finally says no more.
It is just as slow, getting it to go away.
No point in stopping riding. It will come back unless you change something. The way you hold the wing, the wing itself, or use a harness.
You have to figure out how you are over stressing the tendon. Pulling too hard with the back hand. Pulling too hard with the front, try underhand instead of overhand. Using gloves? Gloves are bad. It increases grip size, and that increases grip stress. The unit grip size might be larger, adding stress.
