The coast is golden right now, Looks like North winds are back in the forecast. (hopefully to stay...im getting tired of the frozen land) water is still a bit cold however....after an hour my fingers we're getting that frost bite feeling. got a chance to try out to 6m Nano(on water). That thing is a bullet! with great low end range. What a fun kite.

Sick wish i was there! dude on the thrusters if you move the turing speed to the slow one it feels just like a c kite hard steering and it does not seem to slow the kite at all. the kite loops with alot more power to.

thanks PG,...

I had to turn down the turning speed on the 6m, It was just to fast. And the bar pressure made it hard to feel where the kite was. So i adjusted to "ninja turtle" setting and it was much more responsive. I noticed right away the amount of bar pressure increased, and lost some of the "power steering" feeling. but the Nano is a GREAT kite for wakestyle. It's range makes it really easy to find that "sweet spot', wether you want a lot of power, or just enough to attempt new tricks. And the "mini 5th" line works really well for killing any power. I had so much fun looping that i started getting confident to really SEND IT!!!! I cant belive i was able to fly a 6m in 20-30knt winds, i would have normally been on a 9m...talk about low end. Cool

super stoked

I can hardly wait for summer!!!!
