Seems to validate the Crossbow approach, as the bar is a complete rip-off of that system.

That is why i would like Ken/North to enter the wagon. Of the "Big Brands" he is the one that makes the best steps further in development and refinement (from my personal point of view).

Don/Naish is the biggest copier around (maybe they are the ones playing smarter/safer). One thing is sure: they are doing things right (Raven/Torch, now picking the Orly surf board theory...)

What i wonder is why is there no improvement (mentioning the word) made from the original Legaignoux designs... Are they genious or are all the others not willing to change? Marketing or lack of ability?
Globerider and Windwing are the only ones i recall that invest in really improving with new ideas.

See you!

it looks like they have truncated the tips and it will be interesting to see if they keep all of those attachment points, might make for some interesting tuning - turning/depower/bar pressure.

Naish jumped on the 5E bandwagon in time last season and does so with SLE now towards bow market.
From a pure business point of view that´s way smarter than argueing against obvious advantages of these concepts. It´s obvious what market really demands currently and 06 kites showing up on beached these days show significant changes in brand dominance compared to last year. I think it´s a clever approach not to market SLE as THE one fits all solution like others try. But Naish offers an option for all Naish freaks seaking for a Xbow equivalent. Or for those not feeling at home at Cabrinha brand wise. Be sure that North marketing needs to tweak Vegas 6 as long as it fits into the increasingly growing bow niche. Depower rules demand these days, independently where we are going to be in 2 years.
