You can find some pcis of me and my nephew with the kite on http://h3in.vliegert.nl (but i am a belgain so do not stare at the .nl please) I've flown 2-liners for almost 5 or 6 years. I've dreamed for 3 years of a powerkite. I've dreamed that i could buy a flexifoil blade. When i finally was able to by my dream i've bought a Gin Yoz II 4.8 with the nice backpack, libre handles, 4X25mtr C-lines, Flexifoil Kite killers. The reasons why i didn't buy a blade are: still the cost is 100€ extra(paid 490 for the entire pack and a blade 4.9 with handles and no lines is already 560€).You can't use it in a buggy due to the huge amount of lift.I didn't like the colors of the 4.9 blade III Goal : mountainboarding but that is something i don't have yet. Buggying maybe also later Packaging I think it is the nicest (kite)backpack.I didn't have any backpack except the one that i use for school that is big enough to put a kite in.The kite is seperately in a blue bag. You cant get a piece of kite stuck in the zippers.There came no manual with the kite, you can download one on the site of gin. The kite color : My kite is stylish grey with a red and white stripe. building quality : The bridal lines are reinforced where they come together. The kite has a velcro strap at the side to get sand insects and other rubbish out. It has to thingies(do not know how you call those) to keep the bridals stuck to the kite when folded. The kite feels very smooth. First flight I went back to the store and someone of the store had finetuned the main/brake lines for me. The wind was i think about 3 bft. When i launched it for the first time i felt like a jet fighter pilot that took of from a ship(i weight 60 KG). I was catapulted in front. I was immediately addicted to the power. Kept the kite high and flew it to the left then to the right. Sliding across the hard sand on the beach. I still turned only on the main lines. Didn't use the brakes. The guy of the shop explained the to options to land: With the brakes or at the side of the wind window. I tried the braking method. The kite came down gently but i didn't keep pulling the lines. The kite went open and whooosh back to the top of the window. The second time i feld a jetfighter pilot. After 15 minutes my hands and arms were so painfull that i decided to take a break. A bit later launched it again flew a bit enjoyed the power. I flew again 10 minutes and the pain was back. I was breathing very fast and sweaty. I've had trouble holding the spoon of my ice cream. Then no more kiting for a week. After that back to the beach. Rain rain and guess what. Yep your right more rain. When it finally stopped the wind was blowing 2 bft. Took the kite out the bag and begun to fly. Light wind but still Loved the power. Flew the kite lower. It didn't collapse or fall out of the sky. 4 Day later back to the beach. Nice weather Good wind. I thoughd i don't just want to slide on the beach, i want to jump. The first jumps (running technique) were far but not so high. Still flying untill i barely could hold on to my handles. Back to the shop for a harness. In the evening when all the people that like a sunn tan were gone flying with a harness. It was very relaxing the kite still controllable. Now the past friday in de panne. It was blowing 24 knots with gust to 30 knots. The yoz was at the top of the window one gust and i flew 2 meters trough the air. Who says that the yoz has no lift. It has lift. The day after the wind was less: lucky me. Now i jumped when i wanted to jump and not when the wind wanted me to jump. I just had to stear it to the right and upward to the left and up i went. 1m50 with my legs up.(nephew said that) and 4-5 meter far. I didn't leave the kite at the top whin i jumped but i steared back down a bit. I've learned to float more and jumping is nice with a yoz. Light wind condition In light wind i can easely make it do loops. So it is pretty manouvrable. Ive head yesterday an accident gusty wind from land. Almost no wind stearing to the left. Not hanging against the kite and then came the huge gust. I was pulled over fell on my hip and dragged a bit over the ground. The yoz is stable but i'd prefer still no gusty wind. Conclusion Not the fastest kiteNot the kite with a gigantic amount of liftNot a blade But it is manouvrable, stable, good looking, pulling and lifting(in hard wind).
