9+m NPW
I'm currently stuck between either waiting of the NS3 to come out or getting a large NPW from Susan. I figured I might see if anyone has one that's
just sitting around not getting much use.

Over here John Holgate says:

There is also now (or about to be) the Nasa Star 3 which should be a little faster with a little better upwind ability - I'm not sure if Steffen will
make you a larger custom size for the NS3's or not but you can always ask him - I think they will be available this month. |
That's all I know, but it has me very excited.

Only if Steffen would custom-make a bigger kite, will you get a larger size from him. You could ask without being committed, and decide later.
But Susan can make any size(that could be a tough decision, which size)...:puzzled:
I'm not sure which NPW's (ie: NPW5, NPW9, NPW-HA...) she can make you..in reference to a 'broader' dimension or aspect -that will give you upwind
better( and be faster/stronger).
Her work-from seeing one- is impeccable...in construction and materials(bridals, etc..).

It looks like the NS2 was originally offered in a 10m size so I'm hoping when the NS3s come out there will also be that option too.
I already have a quote from Susan on a 9m one which is awfully tempting.
