Am I seeing only two intakes? That's bizarre.

Awww, i was hoping for some "omg a kite for flyboarding! Must be an awesome new foil noone heard of yet! What could it be!" kind of response, but Ripsessionkites pretty much gave it away :P

It's indeed an Impulse TR, 2.0. It's a completely new design from the old Impulse. Three lines, kitekiller on the middle one, and a very nice design (though that's probably personal). Flies like a dream too. I did a 15km downwind run on the flyboard with it (about 24 knots wind speed), and was sad it was over when i got to the finish. I'll post a review in the appropriate forum when it's available in shops.

There's plenty of intakes by the way, not just two. It's a normal open foil kite trainer kite, like the last Impulse was.

Not so bizarre, all Pansh Sprints have just 2 inlets
