I got to try out the LF Hi-Fi yesterday in 15knots of wind cross off and head high sets rolling in.

The kite handles very well in the wave, I removed the 5th line leash as it was getting in the way. Not sure why it stops a meter or so away from the bar and hangs down??? I have a "bad" habit of unhooking in the waves and I was surprised that the kite was super stable and I knew where it was at all times. I tested the relaunch and was amazed that it relaunched like an SLE, as in I pulled on one of the steering lines and she rolled over into the relaunch position.

Overall the LIQUID FORCE Hi-Fi is one of the best kites on the market, ideal for all conditions and all disciplines. For $1649-00 its great value for money.

Yes the HiFi feels really nice to fly just like the Havoc. I have just upgraded the entire range of my school kites to 08 Havocs today. Arent my students luky!

Regarding the 5th line, you can always tug the end in one of the 2 holes behind the chicken loop hole so you can still clip your safety to it.
