THE RED DEVIL!
Ok this isn't exactly a review, more like a post of pure joy!. The 19m SA2 I just picked up from PZ is sick...got it all tuned up last night and mtb
boarded today.
This kite sweet when the sun hits it and the whole thing is glowing red.
I was out in 7-10 mph nice steady wind.. nicely powered for my taste even at 200lbs.
I wasnt quite getting the timing on jump with the board.. I got used to the p4 and was pulling the kite way to far back for jumps and my timing was
off... so not much height.. but the float on the little jumps was sweet.
Jumping static was sick (timing was better here)..just go up and enjoy the scenery, cus the hang time is ridiculous.
I can't believe there are two of these for sale on the forum right now.. if yer in a low wind area.. im tellin ya.. this is the ticket!!!
Kites: 14m Vegas, 15m SD3, 10m rebel, 4m radsail
Boards: GI mtn board, Flyradical 139, plydoor 154

Nate and I flew our 19m SA 2 Red Devil at Sullivans Island on Saturday and Im still in awe....................theres a local website here called
waterlogged.me. Last week a blogger was disappointed in the low/no winds and said something about wake boarding or buying a "Flysurfer" kite. Another
blogger replied not sure if a Flysurfer 19m could fly in winds this past week. My son replied we were out crusing on Saturday with the 19m and 145x48
Crazy Fly board..............................I was surprised how quick she turned........quick in terms of her size.............very nice uber
stable...........awesome first session........................... :duh:

What wind ranges is this good in? How does it do with gusts?
How would you say it compares with your synergy?

its still early dayz on the 19m......................water no problem in 9 kts and Im 190 lbs riding a 145x48................................for a
buggy once its off the ground your gonna roll and apparent wind will kick in......................landboard on sand 5 kts easy, grass probably the
same.................
about the only comparison I can make with my Synergy is they are both uber stable...............our 17m SA 1.5 is also very
stable.............................great kites and having a blast with them as well as the 10m Pulse................................
try them both and you decide...........PL and Flysurfer are great kites...............................
