I Have ridden my 12m B4 4 times 3 of those were light days. I moved up from a Dos and found it had lighter bar pressure and turned quicker which is nice when in the surf. Boost is good but not as aggressive as the Dos, I do miss the hand of God reaching down and wrenching me hard off the water - However I found the landings to be much smoother and softer with the 4, Its as fast as the Dos but you can let the bar go without the kite dropping to the water. Within 5 minutes I could ride without looking at where the kite was - You could actually feel it pretty well and it is reluctant to backstall in light conditions - The Dos was not forgiving in that department. Overall it behaves itself and I feel the need to get seriously powered up and see what the top end has to offer. This beasty has potential and I can't wait for 20-25 kts.....

This kite pulls like a teenager with his first stick book from Bottom to Top ![]()
