Thanks, but this is "american style" review about nothing basically. No real comparisson between new kite and last year version. "Less dacron, new color", blah blah blah...

Respectively I don't think anyone who's used the Reach would expect a complete makeover on this kite.
The further build refinement/weight reduction is a big part of the story.
To me what comes through from the review is that one of the biggest kite shops in the world with access to almost every brand/model of kite is speculating that it will be their best seller in 2021.
I think this is as much from the massive success of the 2020 model as it is about the changes to the 2021.
If you're interested I hope you have a chance to try it. The Reach is a unique example of a true performance all-arounder.

Maittaiken, let' s be realistic here (even you are partial here). As you mentioned, they are speculating and whole review is basically bullet points from North official website. No data about what changed - e.g. weight reduction improved low end, turning speed, etc.
To speculate that it will be best seller is probably simple promo, to boost sales. Again, I can speculate, that they got the best wholesale prices on North compared to other brands and that leads earning biggest profits out of this deal.
Don't get me wrong - i'm a newly converted North user, but I hate content about nothing
