this may have been there first pulley bar with 2;1 RATIO, and its changeable.

forgiving for a tube kite, easy relaunch, all around . its a bit relaxed compared to the FUELS, 12m meter is their center of design 12/14 would be desirable, not sure of any quirks or value. bridles are long as i remember. or longer than you would find today.

Good to know! I'm kinda in the market for a kite that has better/ easier relaunch and is not as punchy and aggressive as my Fuels. I found a nice 12m and am kinda anxious to pull the trigger on it. I'm intrigued by the fact that you can change from 2:1 to 1:1. How does this change the characteristics of the kite? Faster turning, more direct feel, and less depower?

Would a 2010 Naish SLE bar work in the 1:1 configuration? The 2007 SLE bar looks like it would be a mess with the trimming and safety system all above the bar.

Hi

Yes the 2010 bar will work. The change over is usually done at the bar. The only thing is a 2010 bar should be almost as much as an 07 kite and bar.

Good Luck
John
