i was brainwashed years ago with the naish branding and now i'm a slave to them........while always believing they will rise above the hellfish debacle and there arrow will split the crossbows right up the jack'c.....

like i said brainwashed......rumour has it the crossbow takes some getting use to b/c of the full range of motion of power/depower especially doing aerial transitions the touch on the bar has to be precise...and the lock out on the bar exists in some markets and not others....

perhaps SC you can share the good parts about where all the pingas went so us kite-bludgers (my kites are 3years old now and i dont have the pingas) can appreciate this new technology more readily?

Why does getting used to a new thing scare or put people off... got me f%$ked!

If we jumped on a new kite and it felt similar to ya old one... arent we better to stick with what we got?

So far people I have talked to (not read off the internet) have said "that the kite feels different, but they get the gist of where this kite is heading.... big wind range, great in the surf, and most of all safe with not to many compromises.

Safeties a big thing when you have a family I take it seriously anyway.

My kites are turning up in September; I'll give anyone who wants my opinion once I've had a couple of rides.

My apologies if ya can't afford them.... it's been two years since I splashed out on Sling Shots PLUS the bank manager has OK'd the loan using my TV, fridge, car, and stereo as security.

If ya come up north after September and ya see a short fat bastard getting dragged up the beach feel free to tap me on the shoulder and av a go!
