My Comments:
Just rode the 11m Sport + for a few hours... I'd still be out there if I wasn't goin to the Cable park later. It was sooooo good!!

WHAT A KITE!!!!!!!
We test rode it against an 11m Rev 2 in about 15-17 knots... 70kg rider and 60kg rider...

Basic Rundown:
It was slower than the Rev in the turns... Certainly not a turning machine. But it had waaaay more power, insane Hangtime, and its just unbelievable from the moment you unhook. Jumps are nice and high with plenty of float for the freerider guys.
Kiteloops are full of gut wrenching goodness, and underloop turns are FUN AGAIN!!!!

The bar is cool, I like the Square bit in the middle. I like the new tophat on the Chicken loop, its bigger and works well. Didn't try the below the bar safety, It looks good though...

Tiny bridle works well, kite nice and crisp in the hands but as i said before, Turns like a wake kite...

SO IM STOKED!!!!! Can't wait to get my hands on the 9m Tomorrow...
BEST BIRTHDAY KITE EVER!!!!
