That's the boat I'm in now. My 2012 kites are getting real thin. The new stuff doesn't feel any better to me. Nor do I feel that my kites are holding me up compared to riders on new kites.

I think for the most part we're all constrained by our points of reference, gone are the early days of lots of new ideas coming thick and fast, so we all tend to get blasé . TBH I wouldn't know what a recent Naish flies like I rarely ever see one never mind get chance to put it up against what I'm flogging, so my point of reference is only previous year stuff from the brand I'm currently working with, or 2014 stuff from the previous brand which at that time was about to have a bad year anyway. We don't get the multi brand demo events we used to get when the market was young and growing explosively, nor do we get new companies innovating riskily because the profit base isn't there.
