Hello,
Want to change my LF Envy 12 and 9 m2 to C shape for unhook progression and freeride with big jumps and kiteloops.
I can't decide which will be better North Vegas or Naish Torch? It is hard to decide because I can't test them.
Some people says that Torch true C shape and Vegas not so good as previous 11 or 12 year models. There no so much reviews even for new 2015 models. I think Vegas completely different in 2015 (Hadlow edition and many settings for different styles etc. But will it make better kite?)
Which has better quality of structure? (I have 6m2 North Evo 2012 year model for some strong winds and quality very very good)
I think North have better quality of structure and materials.
So I will be thankful for any opinion.
Thanks

Mate rides torches they're good.

New vegas looks like a proper C now, haven't ridden it but would expect it to be good.

Don't think you'd go wrong with either, depends if you can't stop or won't stop i guess

I would rate razor and torch better than the vegas although vegas is still good. For brand new price razor is going to be the best value.

For Vegas I can get discount and it is North Bar for free.
For Torches I can't get such discount so price will be the same as Vegas+bar in the end. So this is not point of choice.
But North kites more expansive than Naish kites (why I don't know. Better quality of materials? Or just for nothing I don't know).
