Hey Phree!

I'm a fan of the P2's also. My 12 was my favorite kite over the last couple of years. Grunty but plenty of depower. Hated to do it but I just traded out my 8 and 12 for a S3 12 and a Unity 10. Haven't flown the Unity yet (needs lots of wind) and the the 12 just wasn't enough this weekend so I had to go with the 15. Hope we get lots of wind at JIBE!

Nice :thumbup: I love my S3 15 - range for me must be about 10m to 16m (just) for the Xbows. And HUGE boosts, if you can hold the edge :D


... always wondered about the Pulses ...



Yeah... I got a kite. Or two...

indeed the bosst are huge, crazy upwind . not the looper though....i did get off a few loop airs but really don't need it , def have to give hard redirects to keep it together but insane float and this cool low speed pop ....easy cruise up on a transition and you come off the water 6-10ft , had ball with it. bar is luxury compared to the tattered lot i'm use to.

JIBE should have at least a peak or 2 for the water but 10-15 all-u-can-eat, should be great time.

the pulse keep up nicely, glad i got it.

No time on a Pulse 2 but my buddy has a pulse 1 13m I think. Rock solid stable and good low range. It has been the perfect kite a couple of times and got to try it. I wouldn't mind a quiver of them. Glad you got some good rides. Too bad about the GoPro.

How does it handle in gust? I had a 8m HQ Neo which I had to get rid of because during a gust it was very difficult to hold down. Where I am gusty conditions can be the norm.

well behaved so far , standing around not paying attention seemed the only time it got forward of the window, totally depowered letting hang at the top.

in action it can get punchy but smooth and powerful. very similar to the zypher feel, hit a nice light air session at JIBE on tridudes 17m Zepher. they loop about the same , zepher a little faster. i have to say the Zepher and the pulse 2 have been a true surprise. THE bonus units to have around ... and range! 20+

FS is amazing not for everyone but this is gonna make me lazy! falling into a no pump moment !
