I also love then Raven III's. Great fun high wind boosting kites... Bigger sizes 10m plus are not so special.... Its the 8m and 9m which are the best! I'm impressed with the newer high aspect ratio high depower kites like the Ozone Edge, but they still lack the C-kite feel of being wrenched off the ...

Hi, I've got 3 questions... The first 2 are questions about 2014 kites questions, the 3rd is a question about an OLD Naish kiteboard... 1) My girlfriend currently rides 6m and 9m Naish Cults - Loves them for choppy/ gusty conditions, but they're not the biggest jumping kites or best for unhooking. W...

Sick kite... If this was in the UK i'd defiantly be placing a bid! (althought I'd get in trouble with the gf cos I have too many Ravens!)

No way! - Raven will wing height any day! Hands down will take that bet and day ... It was built to boost!

The Raven will boost higher too.... And the smaller Ravens will do real megaloops - nice kitelow/ powerful ones!

Cheers,

YESSS!!! I found a 7m Raven at last!! Got it on Ebay.... It's a 2005 model with 5 struts (The larger sizes had 7 struts). The only one I've ever seen after years (since around 2007) of searching... It apparently has a slow leak to the deflate valve which should be easy enough to fix.... Just need so...

NAISH BOLT or NAISH CULT I've flown quite a lot of kites and I'd say the Bolt (Formerly called the Cult) is certainly the best kite for what you want. I've listed the main characteristics below: - VERY VERY stable (even in the gustiest most horrible winds it never falls out the sky) - Slow turning ...

I worked teaching kitesurfing for 3 months (I think it was summer 2008) at Nyali beach. The wind in September is not good, and mostly very light. You may be lucky and get 2-3 days on the water in 1 week but probably on a bigger kite. The best months for wind in Kenya are June, July, (August getting ...

I've still got a 10 in good condition.. never letting it go, well until it dies an honorable well used death. Wish i had an 8 and 12 to go with it....
