That is the Blade bar. Did Momi/Yaron have anything to do with the canopy design? I heard they did the Thursters of '08. Maybe they continued their relationship.

Maybe you just need to read text sometimes and not only look at the pictures?

Dimitri,

Well done and good luck with Epic. Great seeing you and the family in Hatteras and can't wait to get some sessions on the new kites.

To answer your questions the BAR & CHICKEN LOOP was designed by my good friend Yaron. The kites were designed by Momi. Momi and I always had a great relation ship. You will find more during some interviews coming up.
I hope this answers your questions. I am at the airport right now on my way home.
Had a great success at the KTA competitions in China. Thank you guys for all the help.

P.S. I will post more pictures of the kites once I get home

Felix and the designer guy are still testing eclipse kites. I don't think they are part of "epic"

Dimitri,
the kites look great. Glad to hear you are still working with Momi on the kite designs. :thumb: The thruster was one of my favorite kites that he designed, and the Screamer looks liked a refined version of that. Can't wait to try one, so make sure you get some demo's to Florida soon! And post some video footage when you can. The pics looks great, but we want to see the kites in motion....
:D
