Ok um, for starters i think that tony needs to work on his presentation skills. Count how mny times he stutters and then comes back to using windrange as its only feature.

Owned a TD1 Flown a T2 and all i can say is that the T3 is deffinately going to be an awesome kite given its history. The T2 is incredible, only downside has been its easy to get tangled up in its own bridal and lines (jimmiz can vouch for this several times) but i think they have really made an effort to adress this in the T3.

Yeh... the T2's bridle is a pain in the bum... it almost got lex's arm chopped off when he freed my kite from it's bridle... dear lord.

I'm thinking of either getting two T3s or two Rev's... brand new... I'm saving up now so that I have the money by summertime... this is going to be rather expensive I think ... *waves goodbye to $4000 .

Just a question... what would be better for HIGH boosting... the T3 or a Rev? Seeing as getting some good height is what I crave. From what I've seen it seems guys on bows are able to get more hangtime, but guys on C-kites can do more with their kites alot faster once in the air - so potentially the same amount of hangtime... if you loop it like a C kite does so well. I'm guessing the hybird by nature would be somewhere inbetween?

Demo rider was Tony himself, and he has a very slight stutter.. Not just his presentation skills sorry.. Takes alot to get up and do that stuff sometimes..

I'd be keen to see what others say here too. I've got the 9 & 13 revs. The 9 is an awesome jumping kite, the 13 doesnt get the same height but has more hangtime (this is what you would expect).

Lets campare the 9m rev and 9m T3: I'd expect the rev to go slightly higher because it should be a faster kite than the T3. However you may be able to fly the T3 in higher winds and thus go higher by pulling the trigger? I havent flown the T2 or T3 so cant confirm. Can anyone comment?

it is jeff tobias no doubt.

Sorry guys my bad...
On the subject jumping high, it depends on your riding style..
The T3 is easier to hold in stronger winds so some peole will go higher on it.
The Rev rides faster and if you can hold down the edge in those strong winds and rip it hard you'll get more height. Hang time is different I think easier to get longer hang time on the T3 then the rev jut keep it sheeted in..
Lets pray for wind to go find out..

poor zebb hes gonna have to repaint his van, thats gonna cost a few G's

maybe its actually promoting slingshot by posting the blade vid........ i thought he rode better on slingshot.

p.s good to see a bit of variety in kite brands tho.
