Wac on the 16,5 warrior review
Posted: Sun Mar 09, 2003 2:02 pm
I had my wac system for the 16,5 warrior and I went out in 8-10knots,
75 kg I used the new okiled board 160 and the loose ax 150.
Well the kite with wac becomes a little bit faster but u must take some time to figure out the difference of input. It becomes a different kite after u put on the wac. In 5knot the first day I had it I could do 360 on the beach. In this session I managed to do front and back loops with no problem and I could go upwind with both boards. I will still try it with more wind. The depower seems to work but I still need to test it with more wind. By pumping the bar I could create some apparent wind and I didn't have to sine to much. Jumping became fun. If u have a warrior 16,5 I recommend u do the wac upgrade. U will get a better kite. I'm always the first on the water and now I’m jumping nicely too with it.
Today there will probably be some wind. The forecast isn't too good. As soon as I test it again I will post a new message. I will test the okiled board again and in waves and I will tell u the outcome. I will also try to get some pics to show u.
Good winds to you all.
By the way the weather is getting better here, sunny day today I’m heading to the beach!!!!
