Hey Rowdy,

Thats a different kite, thats a 2.01m TG EROC.

They sure look similar though!

Good winds,

It would be great to hear some nasty things about CORE kites from people in the know we are all aware they look like s..t ,that awfull yellow colour, just cant cope with it, but perhaps except the colour( lets forget for the moment thats most important), something like recent post "09Cabrinha pulley failure"or REV bar issues" and of course we know the CORE KITES are obsolete- they have pulles, 6 of them.
Got my new 7 m today but it looks like no right wind till the weekend so I cant contribute with some horror stories except that its yeeeeelllow and yes 6 nasty cheap looking pulles made in China.
Sorry Steve ,but I WANT TO RETURN this crap- can I /.

In the other core thread you said you didnt want to go demo the kite when offered. Now you have the kite u want to return it, without even trying it. Even though everybody who has ridden one has been impressed. If I was a shop owner I would hate tossers like you

Also, who gives a fig what colour it is. all that matters is how it flys. Its not a beauty pagent pretty boy.

are you being sarcastic? am i just not getting a somewhat strange attempt at humour? you can't be serious, i mean you knew it would be yellow and have pulleys???

Kadkhah! Im very sorry it looks Im ruinning your topic, but my intentions were quite opposite, hope you understand.
Please guys who dont get, try to forget what I said and give Alex the downsides of the CORE KITES, perhaps dont mention yellow colour, sure he knows this fact.
Personally I would love to know those downsides myself since from now on it will be my kite of choice- even without demo.
Perhaps there are others who think to switch the brands, so such topic is really great.
Thanks.

We do agree on colours Alex ,Im just one step ahead of you .My new 7m GT already in my possession and waiting for the right wind to spread the wings.
Its true what you said about Cabs, they are everywhere, every kook like me seems to have one or two, that single thing would make me NEVER buy a Cabrinha kite, even if they were not made in CHINA.
Come on people bring on the bad news about CORE kites, put Alex off buying one or two of them.
As I said before, cant tell much myself, but I remember that one of the guys ( doing Deltas review) said that GTs dont have smooth consistent power like DOS ,also someone told me they were very bad for learners since they dont depower as much as DOS or other kites- thats probably not a big deal since they arent aimed for learners I think, there are so many excellent kites to learn like Waroos, or now BIG trainer kite KAHOONA and plenty others.

Sorry to say that phili but its not kind of post we are waiting for, please come up with some downsides, there must be something bad with GT, perhaps the bar or something else, just dont mention the colour, we know .....its yellooow.

Actually, I tested a Gt 10,5 in gusty conditions and found it to be good but not as good as the Dos. It does not a fair bit of attention is gusty conditions. It turns more around its axis than the Dos and bar pressure increases substantially with increasing wind. Ditch the microloop, its dangerous. The timing on the landing has to be more precise than with the Dos.
I bought 10 and 7 Dos.
