Keep up the good work

Just my two cents

Please don't get that kite. I had it, and its unstable and hard to turn. I got tennis elbow using it.

Good Luck

I've ridden the 11 yarga, 16 r04, and the north is the nicest kite I have ridden to date. If you decide to get the rhino 04 you won't be disappointed. The valves work really well. The black plastic bits are used to open up the one way valves. This along with valves at the tips of the Leading edge ma...

Powerlock like bars 75cm +?

Hi I'm tired of riding my 20m North R2 with a 55cm bar. I'm in love with the powerlock system, but 57cm seems to be the biggest size. Any other mega bars good for unhooked and locked in riding?

That was a very beautiful post that shows a mastery of the English language. Even Shakespeare would be impressed.

Thanks!

12m CO2 is really good. Good jumping, excellent relaunch, safety, etc.

You can't go wrong. I own North rhino2 and rhino04 and I like this kite more. North graphics are better and its all about 'looking' good isn't it?

Cheers

My list:

1.Boxer
2.Wook2

I haven't actually used the kites, but the Naish Aero was an excellent kite. No one I know was impressed by the Rhino 2004 in sizes 14 and down including myself.

I now have a 12 CO2 Cabrinha recon which is awesome.

Cheers
