Hi all,
we just wanted to say a big shout to both Dimitri & Helen for the outstanding effort we have received from them since we took on Epic as a UK dealer a few months back.

It never ceases to amaze us how they reply to emails etc so fast especially being the opposite side of the big pond.
Does Dimitri ever sleep? :o

The kit is pretty much selling itself here in the UK as soon as people see and more importantly try the kites and boards they want them there and then.

We know we'll be flamed for "pimping" but this simply the way it has been for us so far. This week we orderd (once again) on Tuesday evening and the kites arrived here in the UK today (Friday) ....we struggle to get that kind service from UK distributors!


Keep up the amazing work fella, ignore the one or two knockers and feel the love from those that matter!

SURF 8 & 12 for the waves. RENEGADE 6.5 and 9 for all around kiting. And some times I use my son's JUNIOR PRO 4 when it blows 45+ for the waves.
Just try the EPICKITES and you will see for yourself.

Hello "Dj A-Ron",
You are correct the RENEGADE 13 had a number 12 on it because the factory made a mistake on the first prototype. The final RENEGADE 13 have the correct number on it. But nice observation.

Think it's going to be small kites only here in the UK for a while with Katia heading our way....that'll mean more super sessions on the 6m Renegade on 15m lines then! :clap:

This is what happens when Dimitri spends too much time blasting through the surf lineup.

Hello guys,
I have been getting a lot of emails and phone calls from dealers and customers concerning the new INFINITY v2 "3G". People want to know if there is any changes from the the 2011 INFINITY?
Well we are still working on the prototype "INFINITY v2" but the idea is to make the new INFINITY v2 have more power, better up wind ability, and better hang time. All this with out loosing the stability, the turning speed, and the relaunch. We are very very close to make this happen so please give us some time in order to make the new "INFINITY v2" the best light wind kite in the market. So far we are doing incredibly well with the INFINITY (2011) and it has been proven to you how amazing the INFINITY is in light wind. These are few pictures of us testing the "INFINITY v2" in light wind. The wind was 7 to 9 knots side shore for at least forty minutes. This is when we had the best time. Then the wind switched side off shore and picked up to 13 / 14 knots later on. No much fun with side off shore winds because of the buildings blocking the wind and making the conditions very gusty but the kite behaved incredibly well in gusty winds (5 to 14 knots).

P.S. The graphics are not 100% finished. The final look on the INFINITY V2 will be incredible (trust me) :thumb: .

Any chance the web address can be removed from under the Epic logo in the kite graphics?
