To what "new" kite do you refer? the torch is there C kite but that has been out in one for or another for years.
An awesome kite, I just got myself a 2012 9M and its nothing like the C kites of old.

I have some old hadlow pro's but i don't like riding them anymore.

Technology has come a long way in the last two years adding small bridals to C's....

I have been kiting for 5 years, my first kite was an 07 Airush Flow and I have never really flown a true C kite but just for fun and giggles (and maybe a few bruises

) I bought one this week, hanging to try it.

I learnt on 03 Naish Boxers. Most dangerous kite ever! Wish I learnt on something safer!

Anyone know if it's worth me trying to track down a bladder for an 05 Cab CO2 14m? Still in top nick and could prove useful. If not, maybe the bar and lines are worth selling?

I am surprised that you're still alive........ the Co2 i had made the hinderberg look stable ,

In the Loop was taking old kites for PNG a while ago not sure whether he still is ?

My favourite kite too!! Gets me out soon as anyone, even on my (smallish) lunacy 129. I've also got a 7m T2, nice little kite for when it's cranking.

Just sold my 11m and 15m 05 fuels on ebay a couple of months ago, should have waited till now when there's more interest!

still riding my old 07 torches, would never stop riding them apart from the fact they are slowly falling to pieces, despite many, many repairs ):
