Awesome job ! Of course it is important to have an objective and fair way to test and realistically address the performance of the kites. And you are doing just that. But also much more than that ! The tests are interesting but the relationship between the riders and the focus on Ruben biggest carrier moments are brilliant! Keep going with your great work !

@Greg-ii6nq
@Greg-ii6nq Год назад
The War Pigs Squealler is alot like a Blade High Score. Thin leading edge, high aspect ratio 5 strut, made for a fast turning kite that had a lot of canopy flutter and very little boost. It also has the angular swept wing tips. Couldn't see if the one on test had a pulley on the bridle, the High Score does.

@extremelycassidy9818
@extremelycassidy9818 Год назад
The Cabrinha Nitro is a super fun kite. Flew it at a demo. Very nice hangtime and lift- even in marginal conditions. I felt that I needed to add some speed for it to work, i.e. pushing the kite a bit back into the window, then boosting. Its quite efficient, even when fully sheeted in. Kite is super stable and intuitive in the jumps( using bar pressure). I did not try loop it, but I think if you crank it, it turns super fast. It flies nice and far forward in the wind window. I think it dumps power really easily because of that. I noticed its extremely lightweight build. I'm quite cautious about the lifetimes and canopy stretch - but seems to be the way most brands and kites are going...

@michaeltimn8561 Год назад
Only one quibble.. I hate F-One Kites, but its not fair to test kites like F-One that require a high Y bar with a low V splitter. It does make them perform a lot differently. Its jitteriness in the air and backstalling would likely be improved by using a high Y bar.
@xtefanxxx365
@xtefanxxx365 Год назад
Also my first thought, but the Trigger seems to use the low V setting on the linxbar. So seems to be okay. But this could be the reason why they didn't test a Duotone kite.
