We dare not!

Its only a poor prototype,rev 3,version 3.
Nearly everyone laughs at it when they see how badly it flies and the color coming off !

Hey Carl, how's the girls going... Well I hope...

Mate I wish I could get the Hellfish out this weekend, have not received it yet ! Due to the removal of the chrome layer in the final production model I have to wait a couple of weeks... I'd rather wait for the production model to get here than have one of the prototypes... If your going to ride & demo it, it may as well be the one the customers can actually get...

How about we get the slider out instead ?

That's Tim's way of trying to build credability on the forum !

Well thanks Hun Long for backing me up !
You cant use the kite because the color came off !

You should also back me up on my other statement about how most people cant get it to fly and stay in the sky!Also, the 13 m lacks the power of a 13m Yarga !!

Tim, I'm not backing you up on anything buddy...

You seem to be focusing on prototype models of the Hellfish... Not the final model that was released two weeks ago and started shipping around the globe...

The feed back we gained from all the riders (best R & D team & Joe public rider's) that rode each revision, helped us to iron out all the wrinkles for the final model...

Thanks for backing me up again matey !
The Protos are all that exists so far.
So no one has actually seen a final model Hellfish yet!

Shipping for two weeks ? Why are there no reveiws ?

Why do you not have one ?

You seem to be getting me confused with someone like your self who attacks competition... I think the flat profile type kites like the Nemesis 2006 and the Crossbow are awesome and cant wait to ride them...

Reviews are just that a review of someones experience with something... Personally I dont like reviews, I take them with a pinch of salt... Thats why I prefer to make up my own mind when I ride a product and thats why I run the Demo/try B4U buy dept. of bestkiteboarding in Perth...

No,I see you as someone that spins bull !

The Nemesis 06 does not exist! Its just a mock up drawing to try and fool people !

The Crossbow is REAL !!

It exists,people are flying it !

Which is more than you can say about the Hellfish !

I never said the Crossbow was not real...

I never said the 2006 Nemesis was in production yet...

Where are the people flying the Crossbow Tim ? Hasnt even been released yet, just the advertising ? Augest I think it was...

The production run model Hellfish has been released and is shipping !

Hmmmmmmm

Seems like there is just as much "hype" about how bad the Helfish will be as there is about how good it will be.

I'm just waiting for one to arrive and then I'll make up my own mind.

HungLong, any chance you can ping me when you have a test kite? I just sold my kites and am eager to recreate my quiver, but with all the hype I prefer to try before I buy...

Thats because many people have tried the Hellfish. It was so bad they are changing the design !What makes you think it will get any better ?

Hey Timoleary

As I said I will make up my own mind.

Don't need demonstrated negative posters who obviously suffer from BESTOPHOBIA boring me with their boring Blah Blah Blah knocking.

Will post an honest appraisal when I finally get my Hellfish delivered as I did when I finally got my Rapture 12M delivered.
