it looks great !!!!
i like the idea of going from 1:2 to 1:1 in a sec.

but i don't understand the safty system. where do i conect the leash?
i see there is still the small metal ring for the fifth line on the chicken loop...

i don't trust punch out systems to be 99% safe like a fifth line system. (nothing is 100%)

maybe i'll just rig one to my next hybrid ...

There are two leash options with the naish's I have seen. One is on the chicken loop. The other is a small red ball above the depower strap you can see in these pictures. The red ball option will flag it onto one line.

the setup hooked to the red stopper ball gets in the way sometimes if your bar spins a lot.( it gets wrapped around the chicken loop rope) thats what kinda ticked me off about the shockwave

Hey Naish USA, any wind range estimates? Either the general ones or for me (160lbs advanced rider on 130 TT, Skim, and Trow directional)

Also, would you compare the relaunch of this kite to the 5th line Torch2?

Thanks for the pictures!

Im about 15# heavier than you and can comfortably ride the 9 in wind I would be on my torch 8. Havent been out in light wind yet so dont know the low wind threshold.

relaunch is like the shockwave, super easy...

Here are some shots of the kite flying...

Does this kite have as much depower as a bow kite?
