To all the kiters who love the sport and isn't afraid to try something new

Just wanted to share my experience i've had using the Primma Donna II. I'm absolutely amazed at the depower range the kite has and the power of the kite. The designs on the kite are awesome too, just check out their site:

www.jn-kites.com

If you see me down on the beach don't be afraid to come and have a chat. Il also let you try the kite if you're lucky hehe

Cheers
Rosy

Glad you like the kites. People that try them all say the same thing, "they are so responsive and just the right feel through the bar..."

Hope you get to use your 7.0m soon

I thought that was the whole idea behind a "gear review" section in the forum, to inform people about kites, boards, harnesses etc.....

If this isn't possible what is the point of having the section in the forum?

And yes BJ, Rosy is my WA based rider but still paid for her kites. She's not pimping because she got free kites, she's informing people because she likes the kites.

C'mon Martyn that sounds a little nieve. I have nothing against your gear, never ridden it so.... but the point that I think BJ is making is that it is difficult for people to believe a sponsored rider, regardless of the level of sponsorship, is going to have an objective view of the gear. You wouldn't expect Dre to say anything other than Cabrinha is the bomb would you? Or Ruben with Slingshot and so on. There is a duty as a sponsored rider to say it's the greatest. Nothing wrong with that, but probably not a truly objective opinion.

They are expensive if you buy them in Europe due to the Euro, we have priced them to suit the local market. Cheaper than some brands, in line with most. 13m PD2 for $1800, Naish Helix 12m $2149, Slingshot Fuel 13m $1949, North Rebel 12m $1899, Blade Vertigo 12m $1450.... JN Kites don't seem expensive to me.

The prices on the Oz site are the original Euro price which I wasn't happy about so we got together and negotiated the right price for the Australian market. The website will be updated soon. Sorry for the confussion.
