I found this kite in one Swiss homepage, it costed me 130€, around 85 pounds 🙂 As it came the first thing I notice was the strange fabric. Sounds like paper, very light and different. The bigger sizes they made with Icarex. I tried to blow air through but it didnt passed nothing....gooood! The construction is just excelent. Even being a kite from 2001 the construction respect the higher actual standards. All the stitches are internal, the bridles are very well done and there are reinforcements everywhere. It comes with powerings as standard and honestly saying, I still dint try without them, they work very well. The kite is all in all very light and has quite a hight aspect ratio. The air entrances are very narrow and have triangular shape It helps to keep the pressure inside in turbulence winds. For 7,1² it has 6,4 projected area and 5,6 m wingspan....excelent!!! https://www.extremekites.org/uploads/rk/reviews/quad_comp01.jpg Flying : I was completely surprised how good it is, thinking in the price I paid. It flies in extremely light winds. The polen of the flowers were just stoped in the air and the kite was in the top of the window. I could board over grass with it in the same moment as one friend was fighting with the mac bego 600 over paviment. It has loads of power. Flying is particulary different as other foils like blades, for example. The brake lines have to be under control all the time. it has actually more power whenn the brake lines are a bit pulled. You put it in the edge of the window and pull a bit the brakes and off you go....its like a small turbo. Theres other kites, like the Advance Offroad, which have the same priciple of more power when you pull the brakes a bit. https://www.extremekites.org/uploads/rk/reviews/quad_comp02.jpg The windrange its just amazing. I flew it in 5 Bft and it still feels safe. It has better windrange as my blade 1 4,9. The maximal wind is just a bit less than the 4,9, but the bottom is much better. It turns consistently and quick for its size, as fast as the blade 1, but you have to adapt your way of flying. If you dont use the brakes it can overfly and colapses. Jumping hability is very good. The jumps are very floaty and the pulling is very agressive. Not so agressive as a Blade or a bora, but very comfy for boarding. During the jump theres time enought to put the board in the right direction without stress. The only thing is the brakes has to be pulled, for more power and to not let the kite overfly. https://www.extremekites.org/uploads/rk/reviews/quad_comp03.jpg Thats a kite you can board over grass with less than 8 mph, but it starts to get interessting after 15 mph. In the beginning it seems to be not so good and can colapses but after you master it, its just brillant. Some of my friend tried for a few minutes. Some said its brillant (where did you found it???) and othes sayd that the didnt like at all..... I just loved it! If you have the chance to get one of those or just to try it , dont miss it. Its a fast and enjoyable kite with lots of power and a huge windrange. Hope this helps!
