Anyone Tried the 2008 Liquid Force Havoc 2 yet??

I've heard great things, but curious if anyone here has tried one.

I'm comparing to a Cabrinha SB3, and a 2008 Best Waroo.

Any input would be appreciated!!

Both my kites are 2008 Havocs. I love them. I've tried Cabrinha, Best, Ocean Rodeo, and Slingshot, and still prefer this one. It's a great all-around kite.. good range, easy to control and keep in the air. I also prefer the Liquid Force bar with the movable stopper and the cleat system for power/depower. They do need to work on the release.. I haven't needed it yet, but keep it lubricated and it should be fine.

At 150lbs, I can use the 8m in 18+ and the 12m in as little as 10 knots with a light wind board. Hope this helps.

Thanks bro... been hearin' good things on this kite, just never riden a hybrid. Only bow kites.

I may try one if I get some other positive responses, anyone else?

Hi Todd,

I love them...I have been on them for a while now (year) and yes I sell and promote LF but I tell you the truth, they are great.

They jump, loop, relaunch easy, have light bar preassure and the best bar for unhooking for sure...

I have all sizes new and demo...I would be happy to send you some to try out or you can demo some anytime down here in Islamorada...

Thanks for the response bro...

I actually got my 14M Havoc 2 about 3 weeks ago. What an awesome ride!

It's a 14M and is as fast as a Switchblade 2 9m!

Boosting, rolls, etc were pretty effortless. And I tell ya' what... I've never riden my 16M SB2 so fast as on this 14M in 15mph!
