That's an awful ad for some really good kites.

I misread the tittle as "new geraldton" kites

Expected to see a video of kites flying backwards

yeah jumps around too much and seems like every type of kite is used with a surfboard. this one still holds up imo

Thanks Zebra.
Excited on the new kites - some great improvements in materials, designs and finishing. All kites are using D2 canopy and Dimension Polyant KPE Dacron, and all the kites have dropped the roll over pulleys making them more responsive. Heaps of info on the website.
The new Pilot Control Bar lands soon as well.



Any questions shoot.

Been on the new 12m Flite a few times. Too early for a review, but great kite for freeride. Good jumping ability and great hang time. It feels more direct too with the removal of a pulley each side but still retains light bar pressure. Feels a bit edge-like (flies forward in the window) but depowers a bit more for better drift on a wave. Also turns very fast for a higher aspect kite. Loops are smooth and predictable
Found that it stays in the air in bugger all wind which will be good for me learning to foil.
The bag is nice and big with big plastic zippers. you can link bags together and the other normal; pump, bar compartments work well. Also line extensions are included.
Haven't found any negatives yet other than the bar (just not the biggest fan), but a new one is coming out soon.
Heaps happy so far with the purchase. Now ill look at getting an 8m for 30kn+
