Heavy is good, heavy is reliable

Fat Blokes - Tom who works at the importers said that they have made the kite all about jumping and that it no longer folds in on the tips when bigger guys send it in huge winds (something mine does unless I have it pumped up to a scary PSI)

Heavier bar pressure too, can't wait!

p.s. the vid from above, thanks for that but the second one that plays of Seb C is no WAY near 21m... looks like about 10-12m

don't mind as I know I'd rather have a kite with heavy bar pressure that DOESN'T fold up when you send it at the mega top end of the wind range.

I like some feedback too, as long as it doesn't compromise turning speed.

If anything it sounds like the AR has been reduced, this will increase the turning speed not drop it.

My money is on March release, and its going to be awesome, they have had time to put a lot of work into it.
I expect faster turns, and tighter feel, like your good old Edge on steroids.

Yes it's been hilarious over at the Australian forum to read about LE folding problems, and the advice to pump the kite way up past Ozone recommendations from the national distributor, who is the same clown who denies warranty claims due to...over-inflation :lol:

Australian forum..? Oh, Pimpbreeze.. I know the one :rollgrin:

What you say is spot on. How many of your posts have been deleted because you don't contribute financially to the 'club'... "We don't want your opinions around here sonny, they're bad for business" :angryfire:
It's pathetic to watch.. Dare to inflate your Edge above 6PSI and you'll void your warranty. FFS!

Terry the 'tool' thinks he's above criticism over there though. Statement, contradiction, statement, contradiction.. - and laughs all the way to the bank. Don't you dare point that out though...
Sad thing is, the whole site is almost solely composed of importers, dealers, 'team riders', yes men, paid puppets, aka's.. I sometimes wonder if there is anyone who isn't connected at some a'hole level!
Best advice I could give, is don't post there. I gave up ages ago. Like democracy, a forum is supposed to be about free speech.

Thank f'k for Kiteforum! :bye:
