Back to the topic, I heard a rumour that north are bringing out a bow kite with no bridles and pullies, the kite is a fifth line set up.
If this is true then all those bows with bridles and pulleys are going to be worth nothing.
Does anyone know about this and if so could you shed some light on this topic.

But I don't have to.

We have been selling Bow type kites since last October, and have available for us to sell, Nova, SSTD, Shockwave, and GKSonic. Plus now Waroo.

I take offence at my Falcon ute being called a Truck. And it's more a delivery vehicle anyway. When our SHOP is 220k from the outer area of our sales zone, delivery is called customer service.
So it's about now that we all prepare ourselves for the bararge of Quotes and single sentence toilet humour taunts.
plus of course the obligatory alter egos having their blurt.

Back then all the core riders used two line kites. Anybody who used a new fangled four line kite, with all their instant depower was a sissy who couldn't rail hard enough. The term "chicken loop" started as an insult to people who had to chicken out!

Seen anybody on a two line kite lately?

Anybody remember the chicken loop debates from 2002? The way I see it, all this crap about Bow kites vs C kites is just the same.

The more reasonable of the (hard core, no fear, bad boy[}:)]) riders did concede that there would always be a market for the chicken loop kites. The the old cruisers who weren't pushing it would always want them. Apparently people who used a chicken loop would never graduate to powered wake style riding.
Any of this sounding familiar?

Hey Blowinup heading down to the infamous yarra bay for those big wsw forecast for the rest of the week, looks like some strong winds on the way.
Was at boatharbour on saturday and it was that strong we could not even stand on the beach , boaties is looking very good for the weekend.
, I wouldnt buy a bow just yet, have flown them, don't suit how i like to ride, prefer C's with 5th much better, more reliable saftey system too. Bridles and Inverts can't be the answer, bows have got bugs that have got to be sorted and my bet is that next years kites will look completely different. Don't be suprised if theres no more bridles, at the moment i feel the kite companies are throwig out new kites in a race to find an ultimate and we are getting proto's in the progress.
