mattnbrown Posted November 12, 2008 Report Posted November 12, 2008 I am now pretending I dont like the looks of any new kites... that way i _might_ not spend any money Quote
minidrummer Posted November 12, 2008 Report Posted November 12, 2008 haha atm the sport two is the nads for me but im really looking forward to the 09's hopefully i might get me hands on one soon =] Quote
Spyke Posted November 13, 2008 Report Posted November 13, 2008 09 Fuel for the performance and looks! Cant wait too see what flexi have in-store for for the new Hadlow and Ion too. Quote
nemo_sushi Posted November 13, 2008 Report Posted November 13, 2008 the new hadlow was at the brighton bksa and looked pretty mean.. that said the fuel & torch look awesome this year.. not too sure on the vegas Quote
Morgan Posted November 13, 2008 Report Posted November 13, 2008 09 Nemi looks lush I wanna fly one but anyting like the 08 it'll rock Quote
Dodgy Posted November 13, 2008 Report Posted November 13, 2008 Is there any sort of central gathering place where we see or hear of "new" kites? (Other than here *lol*) I've been waiting to see what Flexi's new depower foil is meant to look like - but all I've heard to date is rumours and a "watch this space" from Flexi themselves. I've been watchin' but the paint has burned, blistered, flaked & peeled now - let alone dry... Or have I missed something / not know something / just being too impatient *sigh* The new Ozones do look nice but I've not tried one yet. One day I will I'm sure... Quote
spooky Posted November 13, 2008 Report Posted November 13, 2008 Your in Aylesbury? So when you want to try the Ozone kites then? lol Give me a shout, got 6m Access 09 9m FXY (sweet kite!!) and a 12m Manta 2, even sweeter Jon Quote

Unlike most companies flexi act bring out there 2009 kit in 2009 and not mid 2008 like most kite companies. So you should start to hear things very soon, the new hadlow looks sick though, so can't wait for the Ion4 if it has the same tech going into it. Quote
rgbartlett Posted November 13, 2008 Report Posted November 13, 2008 I've already said this once, but; Au contraire, mon ami. That's not always the case. The Ion3 and the AH Pro were announced in the year they were launched, but we're overdue to hear about the new Atom (Atom 1, August 2006; Atom 08 September 2007) and by this time last year we'd already heard about the 2008 board range (October 2007). From what I've heard there is no depower foil, don't wait for one. The way they're currently imploding I suspect you're looking at an Ion and an AH Pro, and if you want a board, a new depower foil or a new Blade I suspect you can whistle for 'em. Quote

I think we are listening to different grapevines /back on topic I want to try a psycho4 as I love the sound of the adaptive canopy but I've not tried anything new recently so I've no idea what to ask Santa for Quote
rgbartlett Posted November 13, 2008 Report Posted November 13, 2008 I'm not listening to a grapevine, this is from first hand accounts, people who worked there. Quote
beardyjim Posted November 13, 2008 Report Posted November 13, 2008 ok well I'm listening to a grapevine I guess that it sort of makes sense to me that the new stuff will come as they have to speculate to accumulate and it is appearing to be more business/cost orientated company in these tight times...

Ally Posted November 13, 2008 Report Posted November 13, 2008 i think i'm on jim's grapevine too. all that stuff and more might be in development, release dates at this point are mere speculation... Quote

Now, put like that - it just endears me more to Flexi - But it sure wouldn't hurt having a l'il sneak preview, some tantalising snippets of vid, heck - even a blurry photo - Ha! No pun intended Hmmm, sounds like you like the wet stuff Quote
