I'm working on demo'ing the last two (Evo & Park) soon. Just waiting for the wind to return.tautologies wrote:Do you have a chance to test the two last ones? Also can you remember exactly how these differences are when you test new kites? I think I would end up almost confused..unless I kind of the a didregard type test...have 1 or 2 favorites and then compare..

I've been hearing really good things about the Evo. I can't wait to try one!Oldnbroken wrote:2012 Evo is a great flying kite, the most all around of the North kites, does everything well, super stable, boosty, great bottom end for those of us that like grunty, relaunch easy, not stally in light wind.
Constructed very well, like the North kites always are.
Also, your North support network is all around you, dealers, reps, tons of kiters flying Norths in the whole NW USA.
Lots of new and used kites available in your area.
Resale is also very good.
Not sure all of this is true with the Bandit.
I think you're right... I should have inquired about which is the highest aspect "all-around" kite vs. specifically a 3-strut. I knew that asking for the "highest aspect" kite could actually equate to what is in fact a "medium aspect" design based on the specific topic, but my overall goal was to find the most aggressive kite in that category.Westozzy wrote:I would have to agree with bnthere. You asked for a high aspect three strut and the two you are testing are neither. Especially the evo. To add to this it has delta DNA, with the delta characteristics.
Maybe you should have just asked for all rounder kites, because as I said what you are testing does not match the criteria you asked for.
But in the end if it gets you on the right kite for you then its been a post worthwhile. Good luck let us know how you go.
