My Comments:

Firstly i would like to thanks Kite Addiction in Myaree ( Daniel & Reg ) for the recommendation of the Peter Lynn Kites.

I have brought the Peter Lynn Escape 9m and 11m, I have been blown away by the wind range the stability and the blink and you will miss it turning speed of these kites. I have been brought up on the Cabrihna kite range most recently the cabrihna drifter 9m. This kite was great but then i flew the Peter Lynn Escape and it was in my opinion the Rolls Royce of kites.

The Escape, bar pressure has as little or as much bar feed back or as little as you need, I had it set up on the lightest setting and there was no where near enough feed back in the bar in my oppion. I set it to the middle setting and i was blown away with the difference it made the feed back was lively and awake and told me exactly where the kite was.

The turning capabilities of the Escape are phenomenal, look and its there, i found this amazing for messing around in the small chop of perth swell, see something go for it and before you know it the kite was all ready there, i can not speak highly enough of this.

The Depower system is something I am not used to after coming from the ids system on the Cabrihnas, but after messing around with it for a few runs i found it very easy and simple to use with plenty of de power there when need, riding un hooked was a breeze and felt very comfortable.

Bar set up is very comfortable and user friendly.

I hope this has been helpful to anyone who reads this. If you have any queries please dont be afraid to comment on this thread and ill help where i can.

Cheers Mark Davis

Once youve had some time on the kites it would be great if you could grab the furys and do a back to back review with the escapes,would be interested to read your take on both,fury is a little lighter on the bar but feels quicker to me and pulls a little harder through the loop,but the escape is a bit punchier down low and yea both have an incredible windrange.
