Prototype spotted!
This is something my phone saw when i was at the beach last week. Editted and uploaded here.
Me: Dutch Flyboarder ... but not the kind you\'re thinking of.
Power: PL Vibe 1.8 (1.9 mod) - PL Vibe 1.9 - PL Vibe 2.3 - PL Hornet 2.0 - PL Twister 4.1 - PL Twister 5.6
Wind Range: Riding: 11 - 38 knots. Jumping: 12 - 21 knots.
Ride: Trampa (14ply 35deg channels)
Wants: PL Reactor II 6.9 - PL Impulse TR 3.0
Former gear: Libre Dragonboard Sirius - PL Guerilla 13 - Flysurfer Speed I 10 - Ozone Manta II 10
Homemade: PL Vibe 1.8 - Star 6.0 (Depower) - 3 Nasawings - Pixie 1.5 (fun foil) - Flowform 3.0 (slk) - Frog (laundry)
Dilemma: If you work, you have money for kites but no time to fly them. If you don\'t work, you have plenty of time to fly
kites, but no money to buy them. Either way, we\'re all screwed...

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.
