You could even have a KBM "Kite of the Year" a la Wheels "Car of the Year".
Without sounding like Slave by launching into an anti-commercialisation rant, is it too hard to do this because of the sponsorship dollar?
Yep what he said
I honestly stopped buying your mag because the stuff I wanted to know wasn't in there.
All the windsurf mags used to constantly rate gear up against similar gear in similar catagories to find out what was the best.
You guys show newly released gear and its all great from start to finish.
"This kite has the depower of a bow and the handling of a c"
What happens when you guys take it out in the surf and drop it in front of a wave?
And the "this board will work equally well on flat water and in surf" claims dont sound credible so you end up dosing salt on everything you read.
The pictures are great,
but the gear reviews we can look up on the companys web site
Good luck in the future!
this would get to hard cause then we would want to know what conditions they were tested in the riders levels would differ to those of the people who wanted to buy the kites.
