Yet another GK Sonic Review
Posted: Mon Nov 21, 2005 3:22 pm
Guys,
I will post a proper review when I get time to but in case some people are still in doubt here it goes
I am by no means affiliated, buy my kites like anybody else.
I am no pro rider, been riding for a few years whenever I get a chance to which is clearly not often enough. Don t do handlepasses and kiteloops
Previously had Aero2 16, Rhino4 12 and AR5 8
Ths Sonic is the bomb !!!
Been riding in 20/30 knts for 2 days never felt unsafe for a second also the spot was more than dodgy and wind really gusty at times. Would say takes about 5 hours to get used to the kite. After that it is the smoothest ride ever. Does relaunch like a dream. lots of power available. Would say that the kite is much more fun when ridden really powered.
Found it hard to ride with one hand at first but than it s actually much easier than with a c kite dueto depower
Bad things are stopper ball which is absolutely useless. GK need to come up with somthing.
Apart from that if you want a 1 kite solution just go for it
Best kite I ve ever ridden
