Attachment contains some feedback from Europe on the new Takoon Furia. Will have some more feedback from Australian riders over the next couple of weeks.www.kiteforum.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=2341682

Hey aaron,
any chance of getting a review? Compared against the nova2 and enova
cheers
pablo.
Somebody must have the time to post a couple of points on this kite?
Its almost crunch time for me to decide on kites for next season and the obsessive compulsive Kat needs to choose.
I have a couple of friends back in SA (south africa not south australia) who are riding them already who said they were the best kites they had tried to date, but it could just be people stoked with their new kites, and its kinda the same thing you hear about anyone with a new kite on the market.
Why not just get a demo?
cheers saffer, am getting one from a mate of mine on the weekend who scarily asked me the same question. Don't think there's a takoon dealer in WA?
I'll post a review if i get a long enough session on it.
Couldn't tell you. i'm Vic based so never bothered to check for any dealers elsewhere. (for obviously reasons)
There is a nice video of loops on it here. Where is that damn bonus when you need it? I'm sure I can find a way to hide it from the wife, just need to work out how...

no joy yet. The wind over here hasn't delivered the seabreeze and the weekend looks suss.
I won't demo/review the kite until i get at least 2-3hrs in the 18-27knts range. Online videos show the furia turning and looping quite nicely, thats on the takoon site of course so could be the riders skill. time will tell.
