Binding Breakdown | Comparing Materials | TechCast | Episode #460

November 9, 2026 · 56 min

Show notes

On today's TechCast, DK breaks down the latest binding technology from Duotone and Carved. While the technology itself isn't entirely new, it's certainly a different approach to binding design. We also return to the materials debate, comparing Aluula with North's new NU80. What are the differences, how do they stack up, and what could these materials mean for the future of kite design?
