It is christmas, I need a new kite and strugling to score demo,
anyone who has experience on more than just one of those and can actually compare?
I have an RRD but open to anything so long as it is wicked in the surf.

What style of riding are you doing? Without putting down those kites, let me suggest that if your riding un-hooked a lot of the time and riding down the line ie. downwind towards your kite, the BWS Noise is the best drifting kite on the market. Not to mention a lot cheaper too!

Also the 2013 Naish Park has improved heaps from the 11 and 12. If you can, try it out too. Drifts well, turns fast and now has a much improved bottom end!

I got a 8 and 10 reo from Jason couple of months ago and wow they are just perfect. I have flown noise on many occasions and the reo is just in a different league. You can ride without thinking about the kite and just concentrate on the wave. I've had no problems unhooking and tracking down the line either. My only little concern is you need to move it to make power. I can't just park it unless fairly lit. Never had ozone kites before the reos and I highly rate them now! Shame they don't make the inflate valve the same as all my other kites it's a bitch when you forget that pump of adaptor!
