I demo'ed a 12m GK Lift 3 (2005) yesterday and I can confirm it is a very fast turning kite even with the short bar it comes with. It was set up with the front KPO. With the rear KPO setup Im sure it will turn even faster, a lot faster!
It definitely had more low end that my '04 12m Lift 2.
Construction looked great and the new flexible struts are incredible. I miss the fishbones though. I think they will have new graphics every year, they have so far.
The wind was too light to draw any overall conclusions about it.
I cant wait for a demo when its powered up :thumb:
