20th January 2005 Kite surfing: ynyslas Wind Direction: sws Wind Stength: 30knts to mental Surf / Sea State: rough Air Temperature: going cold Sea Temperature: ok Weather: drizzle Max Speed: scary pant Distance Covered: loads yeeeeeeeee haaaaaaaa. if you read shems post you'll get the drift, strike2 9m is like a storm3 thats fell off the atkins diet..ie:- a fat storm... pulls upwind like a train with storm type boost for the jumps and then when your up there you just hang there due to the moderate aspect ratio, super powerful strong progressive pull all the way though the wind win dow without any nasty surprises..ok i know that in those winds even grahams cabrinhas will fly fairly well, but the difference was noticed in that walking to the water with the kite overhaed it just sat there and didnt twicth about the sky ..i was fully depowered and being lofted and the strike 2 just sat there.. The strike as it is is still a fantastic kite, but the tweaks theve done to the strike2 put it on storm3 performance without the kick in the pants that the storm gives you.. very nice indeed and the best bit ive been promised a set for eygpt trip...ive got the 13 already so if i'm up at borth come and have a go but be quick as i'll be out on it all day.... |
