Review for Cabrinha Switchblade 2006 12.0

Times tested: 11+
Range: 12kn to 25kn

Good: Very good stability and wind range. The kite is easy to fly and has decent bar pressure.

Bad: It turns slow (not always a bad thing). No one pump. The depower system is difficult to reach. Stopper ball is hard to reactivate while riding.

Review: This is a great beginner and intermediate level kite. It's very predictable and easy to fly. the build quality of the bar is great. The 2007 upgrade kit fixes the issues with the bar. My only concern is the build quality of the kite and how long it will last.
