finally got to give my new 6m reo a workout - gusting 30knts plus... awesome fun- small surf but lots of jumps and carves and keeps the upwind soooo easily
been waiting a couple of months, had one chance a while back but wind died just as i hit the water, struggled just to get out and ended up well down the beach
this time, centre strut had slow leak so had to repump a couple of times, kinda sucks on new kite, but well worth it to stay out there

weird. I'd suggest check the connection point to the strut first. might be an easy fix. or yes warrantee.
Yes little 6m reo 30+ knots sessions are sweet. allways vert urgent and packed with fun.

yeah it's a bit suss, but easier to patch it myself than hassle around with warranty drop offs and pickups.
Just glad it was centre strut, at first whole kite lost pressure, leading edge started collapsing- had no idea what the feck was going on with the raved-about reo. Repumped and clipped the struts and that isolated it
anyway.....it loves those conditions!! so much frickn fun!!
