Boring pump question
Can't believe I'm asking about pumps, but here goes. I borrowed a new north pump today. Sooo much easier than my old flat top north and slingshot pumps. The old ones are clean and maintained and feel much the the same as when they where new. What makes the newer style domed head north pump so much easier ? Are all the similar looking makes this easy ?

Re: Boring pump question
I saw it first hand it's not a joke. It came out early April at teh same time as those CO2 cartridge fool's. It's overkill for kite because it takes so much room in car trunk but definitely useful if you need to inflate a big volume.
