Default Halo 14m '07

just wanted to share my thoughts about the new Halo 07 14m. I took it out for a spin last Saturday, it was about 10-13k.

First I have to say that when I was out with my Contra and Dave with his new toy I could not keep the same upwind angle...must admit though that he was riding his big protoy.

Then I gave it a try. I was expecting to be faster since last year's Halo was a drag and AR said that they have focused on speeding it up a bit....and they did, it reacts much faster than what I thought, maybe even faster than the Contra. The Bar pressure has definitely decreased and what amazed me the most was the jumping ability which from last year's model it's like a complete differest story. the hangtime was good too.

Overall AR has definitely improved its 14m Halo from a slow turning truck into a more versatile BOW kite.

I'm very curious to try the smaller sizes....

My personal advice is to try a kite before you buy it, your way of riding it might be totally different that others
