Ive flown the 06 and the 07 9m back to back for hours in 30mph on Newborough beach.

The 07’s got:

15% more lift - take it from me.

Slightly quicker through the air

All that flappings gone on full depower

Massively more stable

But its lost some of its “flickability” but that’s personal preference.

The 07 bar is eco friendly with finger grips, full spinning and all new stopper system so it can be flown like a C kite.

I also think the 07's have a smoother feeling and have lighter bar pressure but still really good feedback.

Wasn't struck on 06's (mainly coz of the flapping), Absolutely love my 07.

improvements over the 06 waroo's

 

More stability/user friendly if you fluff a jump i.e you can send them a little further back and if you don't redirect correctly they're alot more stable.

 

Smoother power delivery, which in turn delivers more apparent wind/lower bottom end.....you have to try one to appreciate it.

 

Jumping is still great fun and improved again by the power delivery.

 

The bar is lovely, complete with very sturdy adjustable stopper ball......ride it like a C or ride it classic.

 

Just took delivery of my 15m Rasta Waroo from www.upahill.com it is lovely..... its always a scary time when you change your equipment for new. Hoping that you'll get on as a well as i did on my 14m waroo, which was a superb kite for me. A couple of sessions on and I'm already loving the 15m......schweet.

 

p.s my mint 14m waroo is now on ebay....grab a bargain
