the windgraph, we measured about the same:
the dark clouds showed us the heavy winds:
Robert with his 12m Switchblade, fully lit:
jumps with the Rival were superb:
impressions of the 12er Rival:
better than Tribal, but different!
-Lift:perfekt!
-Hangtime: WOW!
-Turningspeed:not as good as 11m Tribal but really good enough
-really grunty!
-very good depower, like on the Tribal
-Bar feeling is perfekt!
haven't flown a kite with this direct steering, yet!
-Steering forces are low
-Stability: superb, even in the hardest gusts!!!
-Safety: perfect, hardly any pull after release, even 10knts above the normal windrange!
This Kite kicks ass, before you buy a bow, try this kite!!!!
