It has the power but stall when you need it!Many times this trip i was face to face with 6-9 ft waves that i just need to hop to get over and a flic of the bar and i was there. Had a few good session on the 19 but not not enough yet. Still getting on with the new board. I got a Decay 144x44 custom in New zealand. Nice size for arcs.................aj

I had a session today with winds from 3-20. How do you pick a kite in that? I tried the montana, but it didn't like the lulls. Fell back to the reactor and it would go from barely staying in the sky with no power to oh crap how am I going to turn around. Had to go to kite killers twice when I ran out of room or was going to get yanked out. I was boxed in by single line kites several times. But I was flying a kite and riding the buggy. Twice this week, after 5 sessions last weekend. It's been a good week.

Mood: Countdown to 24H of SPO is on

Just got back from 3 days of Les Hemmes in France. The first two days were not that great flew the 13 Century most for the first day (till the wind totally died and I was about two miles from base camp, I got to walk back) Second day I started with the 13, then the 10,8 and ended the day with the 8,3. Third day was kick a$$
we had 18 mph wind and were flying the 6.4 and the 8.3 Reactor

In 5 weeks we will be going to Browersdamm in Holland and get to kite for two weeks.
