Nice !!

It would be very nice to have a fair comparison between ozone frenzy 9m and hq montana 9,5m.

Have fun !!

Thanks to appreciate!

In that session it was present my friend with Fyx 2011 11m but he had too many problems with the kite and could not unfortunately follow the destination and came back.

I can only say i will not switch my kite for his one... I think it's enough.

You have not to compare M6 9.5m with Fyx 9m but with 11m instead.

Hi again !!

Why does the montana generates more pull ??

Frenzy 2011 seems to also be a nice kite too. I would love to demo the two !

hello

Montana 6 has much more AR (aspect ratio) in rapport to the squared fyx. Also the profile is lower and you can fell all the paragliding tech flying the kite... it flies really good. so, it's not a secret to understand why it's more power in 1.

but yes, try them both and you will understand even better what i mean.

be free!
