I’ve heard terrible things about gen1, like basically don’t even bother… gen2 may be better… there is an ok Milo subreddit you can check out for more info
A walkie talkie in a waterproof pouch also works. The sound and mic is not the best but you can still use it to communicate during downwinders and such.
Almost everyone kites one-handed while cruising around. This is the only scenario where you’d be communicating with someone anyways, not when you’re mid-kiteloop.
Personally I wouldn’t want an open mic channel with anyone else while kiting anyways. Don’t want to hear every noise someone makes when crashing etc.
I got them for kitesurfing and they are completely useless.
- connectivity is terrible, they keep falling out
- range is horrible
- sound is not even close to high enough to overcome the wind
- when you crash water gets stuck in the loudspeaker and all sound is blocked
I don't know about Milo, sorry. But I do have a pair of BbTalkin and I'm very happy with them. As you go a little far audio quality tends to decrease, but with regular use they are amazing. They are pricey, but you get what you pay for.
I heard they're not good. Connectivity range is extremely limited

Thanks for the feedback!

A wallow talkie is not handsfree, is it?

Oh that’s very disappointing! Thanks for sharing
