Core Nexus - help about CIT settings modes

Postby shutupjoy » Mon Aug 12, 2019 6:35 am

Hello my brothers,
I riding my new Nexus and I want to understand BETTER the CIT modes, what is standind behind that modes.
I started to do Kiteloops and I preffer NOT powerfull kiteloop that pull you forward downwind with hard kik.
Is it better for me to put it on WAVE CIT mode insted of FREESTYLE CIT mode?
I think that the loops will be more tighter and depowered, but the kite will go up to catch me compared to freestyle CIT mode?

2. is Nexus is good enaugh for unhook?

Thank you people!

" Akkie likes his megaloops big and powerful, so he selects the CIT’s freestyle setting whereas Willow prefers the wave mode for tighter loops (on his bottom turns). The wave mode also makes the kite turn faster, increases depower and doesn’t pull you off your strapless board. "

I've tried all settings on several different sizes with the Nexus.
Coming from GTS kites I was looking for a similar loop but the Nexus doesn't get close to the turning speed of the GTS no matter what setting you use.
For 7-10m sizes I use the wave setting on the CIT and always hook up the back lines to the knot closest to the kite. This has given me the best looping speed but you will get a little bit of canopy flutter as the kite comes out of the loop. Be forceful with the bar and always depower once you get it past 6 oclock.
