Re: Naish Torch 2017 Problems (No Power)

To make The Torch lacking in power is a backward step in my opinion and a 12mtr of any kite brand is a ball in 20 knots so what is the point in this and how is this better?? You can't sugar coat it! this is inferior to the past two years, the product may look very pretty but come on how is less grun...

Re: Naish Torch 2017 Problems (No Power)

I guess a team rider will tell you what their boss tells them too so..

This years kite is a game changer with better high end and better low end so you only need one kite and it will last forever but you should buy a quiver! :)

Great pump this year though

Re: Naish Torch 2017 Problems (No Power)

Thanks Lorenzo, As I said I found that I had to shorten the back lines, I tried multiple adjustments and found the setting it worked best but this was still not great in my eyes then I also tried variable 5thline lengths. But after flying back to back the same conditions on a 2016 Torch the same siz...
