I’m really appreciated for that.
The wind was light only about 10 to 12 mph with couple of gust to 14 mph.
I’m 130 lbs (60kg) and normally I would take a kite like F-One M3 16m or the Rapture 15m,
which is not that happy in that low wind with a directional board.
Since I wanted a real test I grabbed my F-One TT Style 128 X 35 real narrow board.
The first thing I noticed that the kite felt so light that I could barely feel any bar pressure in my hands,
even when the bar was pulled in for maximum power.
I couldn’t believe it, after couple of passes I could go up-wind,
like with the Rapture the only one could do so far.
I started doing some jumps up to about 13 feet according people on the shore.
I’m impressed doing that height with a small board in a light wind only on a 13m.
Just send it without any effort and feels like I could be riding on it all day without getting tired.
Sometimes I ride 4 to 6 hrs on a session.
The hangtime is unbelievable, it’s a different world, it just hangs straight up there.
I dropped the kite to the soup about 3 times after doing transitions,
but I could relaunch it very fast.
The steering speed and handling is so good that it feels like a 7 or 9m kite.
This is no bullcrap, no hype that’s for real.
The kite packs up small and feels like a 12 - 13m Ram Air type kite weight it’s so light.
I think it will revolutionize kiting and this is a big forward leap in kite designing history.
People could say the kite is the same old design or copy.
I don’t give a shite because after riding it the bottom line is,
it works without all the bullshit and 5th line.
Just by cutting the weight down it did what I was excepting from a kite like this.
Congratulation Best.
