Need some advice on kites
I know this will be a hot topic but I need some opinions from everyone,.
I don't care if you sell kites, rep them, or just ride them. I'm looking for a lot of feedback here. besides a C kite, what are some good kites to do unhooked tricks with? Simple enough question, right? Lets hear what you guys have to say! |
whats wrong with a ckite???
|
Nothing, I've never riden a C kite and I'm pretty satisfied with the depower and safety of bow style kites...
|
Flexi ION, new 2008 waroo are two nice ones I've ridden and liked how they felt unhooked.
I learned to ride unhooked on my 06 waroos (probably one of the worst kites for freestyle).. I wouldn't consider it a "good" kite for unhooking but the large depower range made it easy to get hooked back in without loosing too much ground. I think it's more about the rider than the kite when riding unhooked, but I know Scott will argue with me on that. :D |
Switchblade 3, you can't go wrong with that unhooked....... maybe you could get Steve-o to let you demo one
|
Does anyone here think riding with a 2:1 vs 1:1 bar setup has any effect?
|
I thought Switch 3's were only 1:1 bar setup?
or do you mean " how does the xbow 3 go unhooked? " ? |
Just in general how does the 2:1 vs 1:1 effect unhooked tricks?
|
No sure it does at all... other than how the feedback from the kite feels.
Josh may have an answer to that one... he rides Cab. |
i like my ckites, and the fifth line makes them safer then bows :)
