DUDE!!!! That is such good news to hear! Next time you go home, please let me know. I won't ask you to pack me in your suitcase, but I will book a flight to come kite with you for a few days while you are out there!

WAY COOL!

I am happy you got to kitesurf for the first time in your stompin grounds!

SWEET!!!

All of the reviews I have read said it's just like a bow kite... so it's best for the free ride crowd (jumping, carving, etc)... not so good for unhooked stuff, kiteloops, etc.

The reviews didn't sound all that exciting... not bad or anything but they just seemed like it was a better than the average bow but not anything ground breaking.

Would like to try one though.

Default Naish
I know the local shop up in PC (pcbkitesurf.com) is becoming a Naish Dealer and they are getting the Helix. As soon as they get some they will have some demos. Once I get to ride one, I will try to write up a review for it.
