Don't know about this years model but the 2008 fifth line and attachment points don't work well together at all. Self launch and self land does not work well. Relaunch off the water is crappy. The 16M turns inside out all the time. North does not want to talk about it or talk about resolution or giv...

Does anybody know if this magazine is available translated to English??

I would love to hear any direct comparisons in the Delta type kites that everyone is starting to offer. F-One Bandit, North Evo, Core, RRD, Wainmann Rabbit, Best Kahoona, Eclipse Kima, Nano, Takoon Pure etc. Been on the Rabbit Boss 12M several times and like everything about it. Probably gonna move ...

Looks like lots of Delta-ish kites for 2010. Bandit, Evo, Kahoona, Nano/Kima, Rabbit, Pure, Core, RRD etc, etc. I like 'em...., they seem to have all the good stuff we liked about C kites, grunty low end, plus huge range, great upwind, auto relaunch, stability and no SLE backing up tendencies. I wou...

I want the 140 in addition to my 150 but I need to save a few more nickels.

The SS Octane is the nicest C kite I've ever had, too bad they had the size numbers out of whack, which seemed to hurt sales. No reason to get rid of it unless it is not performing for you. I love the new SLE kites, and Deltas (OR Rise, Wainmann Rabbit) and they ride well and depower hugely but they...

8M & 12M and keep the Spleene.
8M & 10M combo is closer than needed with the range of these kites.
If you use a 12M or 13M as your biggest kite, you will still want the Spleene for the light days, no?

I have the Spleene Session 141 (141X43CM) and also the Mako Wide 150 (150X40CM). They both go upwind very well but the Spleene out-points the Mako by a small amount. The Mako eats chop like nothing else I have ever ridden and far better than the Spleene. The Spleene 141 feels bigger than the 150 Mak...
