It is fine. Definitely not heavy on the bar.diogovilla wrote:Can any rider comment on the cloud's bar pressure? (i'm used to the switchblade bar pressure). Tks.

I would say it depends on the size. The 17m has higher bar pressure and the 6m is low. If you are used to 2012 switchblades then you are fine. 2013 sblades are lighter so you will notice a change there.tautologies wrote:It is fine.

I'm considering changing my 14m switchblade 2010 to a 13m cloud. I have a neck problem and bar pressure is a MAJOR ISSUE to me. Do you think I'm going to experience a heavier bar with the cloud?Vacaloca wrote:I would say it depends on the size. The 17m has higher bar pressure and the 6m is low.

The 13m Cloud has way less bar pressure than the 14m SB. You can steer the Cloud one handed easily. Some people would say the SB is gruntier (see grunt discussion above)diogovilla wrote: I'm considering changing my 14m switchblade 2010 to a 13m cloud.

Is there something else you couldd compare between a 14m switchblade 2010 and a 13m cloud? Wich one is gruntier?
Thank you VERY MUCH!

There has been quite some time since the switchblade had a heavy bar. The 2013 bar is REALLY soft.Gigi;) wrote:funny, you compared it with the probably hardest on the bar of all kites especially in the 1st models.
I couldn't find any comparison between the SB and the Cloud in the discussion you mentioned. If you can, please send me the link.ozonelevel wrote: The 13m Cloud has way less bar pressure than the 14m SB. You can steer the Cloud one handed easily.

I'm a heavy guy, so the "gruntyness" of the Switchblade is important to me. I also have a neck problem, and the SB light bar helps a lot. Changing to the cloud will be a tough decision which I am carefully considering. Thanks.
