Hello balugh
Don't forget Switch Kites. Direct sale - no middleman.
16m Nitro (complete) = £742.00 including VAT and free shipping.


No worries...it was not a definitive list...just some of the ones I've met in one way or another. I know nothing about the Switch kites excepte what I've seen on some of the forums but the prices look good.

Alex are you sure it is just a rebranded Thruster? I know different.
I have alot of time on the thruster, time on the infinity and now alot of time on the Nitro.

I know you haven't tried the 16r nitro.

Maybe you should try one before you say it is a rebranded Thruster.

a 14nitro has the same power as the old 16 thruster.

my 2 cents

Given that your post is in all aspects a blatant lie and an absolute misrepresentation of the truth, it should not even be considered as a credible comment.

Sorry Switch team, you have all the right to ignore my comments, so do I to disbelieve all your stories about 100% new desings... At least Dimitri made the effort to come up with something new and different while fallowing the same concept... you guys, just took the existing stuff and re-marketed it with a different name on it... I don't know what happened between you and Chris, but fact is, what was supposed to come out in 2009/2010 as Eclipse, came out as Switch in 2011... I have no issues with the concept of recycling companies that went bananas... But lies - that, i'm allergic to... 100% new design? sure... yeah.... You've started Switch just where Chris has left Eclipse... lies... good luck with that!

Dimitiri, sorry for polluting the thread....

Ok guys, let's focus on what's important and lets get back to the (RENEGADE "Infinity" light wind machine) topic. :thumb:
Just wait until you test the new INFINITY v2 "3G". (coming out to your dealers near you December 2011).

P.S. By the way will have a video of the INFINITY V2 in action from 5 to 10 knots real soon. Did I say 5 knots!!!! No way.....

As a beginner i did like the slower bigger kites. I always had fun with my Waroo 2007. But after a few years of riding i still enjoy big kites more then smaller kites but do love the fact my kites are pretty fast now.

The infinity was a suprise for me, i didnt expect the kite to be that fast and playfull. It was faster then other big kites i rode. It went up wind good, but it took a little more efford from my side to go upwind. This is one of the things that changed on the V2 so i'm very excited about that kite.

Hello guys,
Just wanted to share this email I got from a very happy customer. And yes I did ask him if I could post this on the FORUM.

Hi Mr. Dimitri
Got 2011 infinity week ago monday and i have been used it 5 times know. Everytime i like it more. Easy to use, quite powerful and really i mean really fast for that powerful kite. I weight 93 kg now and i used it with my big board from 8 knots. I have ridden with it to 16 knots too. This kite is something i have been wanted. I can do kiteloop backloops easily in 10 knots of wind and other kiteloop tricks too :)
Got the judges too and have used this 11m few times. Like those too but need more to ride before can say really. Also what is the price for the renegade 13 kite only?
