Where is this rumor the Envy is replacing the NRG coming from? They are very different kites, and I know the NRG has a good following with the freeride / boosting riders. Seems like a bad idea IMO, NRG riders will probably go Switch Nitro or something, as most of them dislike the Envy (too slow).
I'm not sure that it is a replace, but rather the end of the NRG line. It has been widely reported that the NRG recieved no upgrades for the 2015 - sounds like someone has plans to put it out to pasture.

if you look at the video interview from jason selzak from liquid force he admits it has a huge following and says that he wanted to put all their effort into redesigning the envy. I think the future of the NRG is fine.
This review is really bad, doesn't appear the guy has ever even rode the newest model but makes tall claims about performance. Just because it's on the internet does not mean its true.
