Hi all i bought a best guroo 6m kite and i know its a learners kite but found it to be very sluggish and slow at turning compared to my griffin argo 10m is there a mod that can be done to the bridle to get it to perform better ????
Not that I am aware of, as you say it is a learners kite, specifically designed to turn slow and easy to give plenty of reaction time in a small kite for learners.
Best mod you can make on a Guroo is put it on ebay and sell it..
If you knew it was a learners kite then why would you even bother with it. The old Guroo is one of the slowest kites available. I'm taking a punt that you got it very cheap from someone... In this case 'rule 34' applies.... "a 6 actually turns like a 12' not to be confused with a BWS a 10 turns like a 6!!!!!!!!!!
Learn a lesson, sell it to a noob and demo some kites from shops so you know what is good and works for you..
You're not the first to make this mistake.. Shops do have advantages over private sales.
Don't mind surfingboye.. He just is upset because 'Best' knocked him back for sponsorship!
For the record I actually do like the 7.5m only kahoona V3 and V4. They jump very very big and loop well.
Anyone that says they don't go big is lying and has no idea what they are on about.
The Guroo is for kite-schools and that's what it was designed for .
As for the Kahoona V3, i agree with RPM ...biggest airs i've ever had and the V4 also goes huge but more refined for wave riding. Also have the GP's which are awesome wake/freestyle kites with huge wind range. Try a Kahoona from your local shop coastflyer.
Thanks anyway all. yeah i did get it cheap and bought it to play and practice over winter.But after flying it i wondered if i could maybe i could get rid of a pulley or seperate the rear steering lines from the front bridle lines or something and it would be the same as one of the other best models(if thats any better lol) and maybe turn a bit quicker, oh well it was still cheaper than buying a uno trainer and came with bar and lines
try it with a longer bar
your Argo lines should go straight on? and a longer bar should give it more turn-y-ness
My old 7m Waroo turned waaay too fast, so probably sell it to a learner and get a better toy.
