Is that the love between a man and a woman, or the love of a man for a fine Cuban cigar?

Oh sorry, how about "yeah man its the gnarly best full awesome kite I've ever used, the first time I flew it I was so surprised I got like upwind in about half the time on my upwinder and I had so much control it had like double the depower of the older model bla bla bla..."

I just said "no" I'm not in love with it haha. I think it is a good kite, especially the smaller sizes for in the waves. However I am a fuel man and I use those 90% of the time, because their performance is unmatched.

Anyway wouldn't it be better that people can trust my opinion instead of me being another useless brand pimp... It's almost like what's the point, everyone knows you are lying.

I got one two weeks ago, I rode it on the Freestyle settings and thought it was a pretty good kite and much better than last years, then I swapped it to the Wakestyle settings, F#@$ING AMAZING trucks upwind like a motherf#@$er even at the low end its wind range.

2012 available for demo anytime from Woodys.
Click the link off our banner.
They really are as good as it gets for Xover from freeride to freestyle to surf.
Personally I only like them on the freeride setting but mates think exactly the opposite and some use the choice offered depending on the day.
Thats what makes them the true all-rounder.

I prefer the 8m on the wakestyle setting and the 10m on the freestyle setting.

Tryed the 10m in lighter winds was a bit less grunty and slow compared to my bandits..I have seen some guys on the 8m tearing tho.
