Well the kite many have been drooling over has been released in the UK. Looking forward to hearing some reviews and feedback!. Thoughts on the whole Pro model thing?
The kites are due to land early next week. I'll let you know as soon as I have had a fly.
Any news of a demo becoming available West Side? I am sure the crew would be keen to put this kite to the test.
I think the design is looking edgy (Trendy) but the patriotic flag design does nothing for me at all. Nifty price tag also but this looks like a niche kite and wont sell like a switchblade or Vegas! If it excels I might add it as my winter 7m.
I have the Atom 08 bar and the build quality is for sh**t. Those straps get all frayed and wrap up all the time, The unwrap swivel never ever works leading to untwisting before packing down (Oiling it does nothing BTW). Bits and pieces of the bar (mini metal ring) have broken off as well not to mention the right hand horn cracking off during a kiteloop frenzy. If they are going to justify the $600 price tag then they need to make the thing bullet proof. Great bloody kites though especially the 9M fully tuned up for wake or tuned down for waves! Looking forward to giving this kite a crack!
why bother, it still aint gunna make you as good as Hadlow!
If it did then I would pay double. Seriously though I love trying diferent kit and haveing a new weapon can push you to try new things and amp you up on a mental level. The rider a kite does not make! And with relation to the price of kit why not? Everything else in life has a range of cost.
