  2. Hi Andreas. Thanks very much! I'm glad you're enjoying it, I'm having a ball writing it and trying the boards.

    I haven't tried BoardOff on a Mac before. I know that Apple's version of Office 2008 dropped support for VBA which is required for the macro's to run, but they reinstated it for Office 2011. Sorry, I hven't had much to do with Mac.

    I am in the process of see if open office can run it so I'll let you know how I go. Sorry I couldn't be more help.

  3. Hi,
    Thank you vert mych for all information abou the kiteboard production. I just have a question about how we can make a kiteboard longer than 140. I want to make 146 and 153 cm kiteboard. Can you or we adjust the excel table for the measurements. Thanks.

  4. Hey cenk,

    I'm afraid that 140 cm is hard coded into a number of places. It was a very bad idea to do that.

    I'll have a look at it over the weekend and see if I can at least get the drawing part of it working for larger boards. I'd like to make some larger and non-twin tip boards too.

    Thanks for your email.

    Matt
