Postby bhiggens » Wed Sep 17, 2014 11:07 pm

Any of you guys have anything to say about the epic judge? Been looking for a c kite with loads if slack to progress my wakestyle riding.

Keen to try the epic judge after watching Dimitri go at it!

Currently riding north rebel but looking for something more wakestylie!

I own the 8m Judge and I can honestly say that it is a very nice kite. It will suit everything that you could want in a wake style kite. Great relaunch and very easy to use.

ha. if you search for the JUDGE online, you'll find several reviews from James - he LOVES this kite. It would be an awesome snow kite given that you probably don't want to boost massive with the snow and take a beating. Nice stable, fast kite, and if you're not yet into unhooking, you can progress in that manner as well.
Dimitri will also send you a demo if you like.
take care

Not what you want in a wakestyle kite.

Have you ever used this kite or are you just chiming in to give a generalized opinion? I ride these kites and they are well suited for wakestyle. They aren't high boosting kites and provide good slack in the lines for passes....enlighten me as to why they are inadequate for wake style?
