When are the X3 reviews gonna start coming out?

[Toby]

maybe I will get a report later of the X3 10 and 14.
They will be flewn directly in comparison with the X2 14 and 10.

As far as I can say, the X2 10 and 14 are incredible kites, so I'm looking forward to the report, because I can't see a big change towards the X2 according to performance.

Hi,

Anyone happen to be in Egypt around the 17th of April can visit us at Colona Watersports were we will arrange a little bit of an X3 testing day.

10, 12, 14 and 16 will be available as well as the X10.

All testing free of charge of course!

I have to differ my above statement!

I guess not too many big changes for the sizes 14 and smaller.
I think the bigger sizes 16+ will have bigger differences.

Let's wait and see (test) .....

Hi guys !
I've got my new X3 quiver today, 10, 12 and 16.
I have no tried yet. I will let you know asap my impressions.

[Toby]

If significant different I might get the 10 and 14.
otherwise I keep my X2, since they are weapons in that size.

I'm not too sure about a bigger kite, since I couldn't see that it pulls that much earlier than the 14.

What is your experience between 14 and 18/20 sqm kites?

Had a very short ride on Bengan's X3 16 yesterday in about 10 knots.

Kite felt very smooth with consistent power. The bar also felt lighter.

Never ridden a 16 before, normally ride X2 20, 14 & 8.

Don't think you can ever expect an unbiased review....

Situation 1: guys buys the hype and gets a quiver - is he really going to admit that he does't like them and therefore that he decided wrong?

Situation 2. Evangelist for another brand tries one - is he going to admit its better than his kite?

Each kite has its pros and cons, which no-one can truly learn from reviews, but with practice you learn to make your chosen power plant work for you.
