oceanplay......lmao........do you have more fun then me?

kitime....it depends on how you like to ride. Are you a mid or high aspect guy. Do you like to ride fast? Riding waves or jumping? how much do you weigh on that board?

I prefer the nemesis and ride in choppy ocean. maybe in hte 8 size might do the yarga, but don't have a need for that small kite often.

Yarga is pretty nice for chop because you can slow down a bit, where as the Nemi likes to ride real fast to get the most performance out of it. But Ryan is right, it basically comes down to style and preference.

I have the nemesis 8, 10 and 12 and been riding a 16. I would rather go for 16+12+10. But that's me. I ride a 125x38 board and am 83kg. It is really a matter of personal taste: for example, i find the yarga 13,5 too grunty for my me.
Good luck!

EH wave @ ASTV from 599$

Postby astv » Fri Aug 06, 2004 6:33 pm

The EH Wave, a Medium Aspect Ratio kite, equals control and power. This kite is built for the hardcore wave rider. The EH Wave contains all the latest know-how that we acquired through our research and development center in Cabarete. Riders that spend their lives in the waves have helped us test and develop this kite. The EH Wave is produced in small numbers to keep the technical design up-to-date. Expect stable controllable power anywhere in the wind window with easy re-launch. This medium AR kite has the sheet ability to position and depower so effective that you can adapt your speed perfectly to the breaking wave.
