when i demo'd it it seemed very forgiving, more so than my titan FS.
for all around use it's a nice rig.

Hehehe, man those Titan's were dogs... flysurfer kites were pretty unbearable till the speed came out in my opinion :)

Nice kite for sure, still wish they'd redo the bar though...

That looks like Kite Point. I've only been out there once but it was blowing 20 knots and the water was really tame.

I tried the 14m at Lake ontario last month in 15-20mph winds. I think Chris at hq has a few pics of the day.......aj

Great vid...................as stated back in September, this kite is sweet (still havent seen a tip tuck). Pictures or in this case, a video speaks a thousand words. If Peter Lynn Arcs weren't so damn nice, Id already own the 11m...............ah but what do I know anyway.....................

Nic pics Chris....looks like a fun place to ride...I'm guessing the water might be a little frosty but nothing that a steamer can't fix.

BTW AJ, how did you like the 14m?

I liked it alot. It was a little slow to fill but, it was the first time it had been out of the bag from the factory. Once it was at the zenith it was rock solid. Out on the water it had quite lot of pop. I flew it at Fort Niagra on lake ontario. Air temp was 50 and water temp was about 55. I am looking forward to trying them out at dbbb on my home turff. Good flying kite!..............aj
