Finally had a good day to try out the new Nano.
I was amazed at the speed thru turns and amount of low-end range. Well balanced with bomb proof construction and lots of small details. I cant say i've flown many SLE's to compare it to, But i sure like how the bar feels very responsive.
Not trying to give everyone a sales pitch , just sharing the stoke.
See the Eclipse Kiteboarding website to get the specs and better pics

I have all sizes of the 2008 Nanos and a few 2008 Thrusters if any one is interested in giving them a try.

hey dale,
are you coming down for the snowdaze? I'd be interested in trying a thruster I'm curious to see what differences there are to the nano,
kitekid (lil john) brought out the 10m but i didnt get the chance to fly it. (having to much fun)
The thing i like about C's is the no turning while sheeting out factor, i took some hard hits with the waroo. and even though this is a common thing with SLE's, the nano seemed to have enough bar pressure to sense what the kite is doing. and the mini 5th line is a nice feature

Sol Fly, I rode an 8m Thruster yesterday for 3hrs and was amazed. If you get the chance to ride one, you will be plesantly surprised. No need to hype, just try it.
