I have the 4.3 and 5.7; when the 4.3 lacks power, switching to the 5.7 works perfectly, and vice versa. At 5'8", I can downloop it without any trouble. I really enjoy it—it provides a great sense of security when you're worried about the wind dropping.

I run the 5.7m V2 and 4.3 V2 PR and perfect combination for me riding a midlength 90 L at 90kgs. The 5.7m was a game changer for me as it really enhanced the bottom end and getting up on foil in light winds. Very stable and I have had it out up to 20 knots of breeze without any issue.

Great thread as I'm days away from receiving my 5.7. I have a 4.3 v1 but anything over 20knots & it's too much work. I'm really hoping it opens up those sea breeze days. What are you guys getting maxed out on with the 4.3? i'm 86kgs dry about 90kgs wet

Double check with your dealer about customer service and warranty. Multiple people reporting bar ends snapping off new PRv2's right now and they haven't been getting prompt help.

It's a super easy parawing to fly, the low end is really good, I'm 70Kg and with a dw board I can fly in just under 10 kts. Range is also good for a single skin, no problem at all until just under 20kts. Only downside is that lines are really long and there's a lot of canopy to manage. If your sessions are not involving a lot of packing and unpacking is a great parawing.

I've been really happy with my Pr v2 5.7 and was surprised how early it starts pulling and get you on foil and still manages heavy gusts! I often go directly from 5.7 til 4.3 even though I have the 5.0 - I think that says a lot about the wind range!
I think it's easy to pack and the line length is no problem for me! But I'm also a tall person (187 cm) so maybe my arms are longer than other users? ;-)
I packs down okay in size (compared to other big PW's)
I had a Quest 6.0 before and that didn't start earlier - on the contrary.....
So absolutely recommended lightwind (or normal wind - depending on your local conditions) PW
My weight is 90 kg wet and I mostly use boards 75 to 90 l ML and lightwind foil is 950 cm2 AR10
I'm actually selling mine since I ordered an Afterburner 6.5 so contact me if interested. I'm in Europe (Denmark)
cheers

They should replace these bars with the newer style afterburner designs, will make the PR a totally better wing

I go from 5.7m PRV2 to 4.3m PRV2 ..... don't need the one in the middle. It's got a good low end, handles manoeuvres well. Can keep on it to up to about 18 knots and then it gets pretty hard to hang onto.

The 5.7m PR V2 is a really good PW sure not perfect but pretty dang good super good pumpable low-end for a heavier rider 100kgs can ride it comfortably up to 22 kts if you o ver 90kgs can't afford not to have one really.as far as bar end breaks I have heeps of hrs on my 4.3 and 5.7 loaded up and still going strong, only heard of 2 breaking to my knowledge but sure ozone will step up fix it, hope I didn't jinx myself LOl great PW

After using the PRV2 5m I would wait for the Frigate V2 5.5m.

If I Win the lotery I would go for PR UltraX in the big sizes, Its insane how much better it feels with just the afterburner bar and how small it packs
the Frigate V2 in the mids and Quest in the really small ones for control and ease of use when its really rough.

Till then: Happy with my PR2 in 5.7 and 4.3 and Quest in 3.5+3.0 to cover 15 to 35+ knots

Im pretty heavy/large rider 100 kgs plus so I have no real problem with it, have to take it for what it is a 5.7m pw not a 3.5 or 4m pw so it is what it is, like i said not perfect pw,but highly doable stash just got to fold it reasonably fast separate lines/bar and its pretty money on redeploy, the low-end,upwind angles really shine,and a pretty decent high end 22kts if your around 90/100 kgs highly recommend
