Any one seen any review on the soon to be released crazy fly trix kite?

I dont use any of the US forums, has any one seen anything on them? It looks good, and if board quality is anything to go on, they should be solid.

Col??

I looked for reviews regarding the Trix but also not much to be found on the web. We ordered 3 kites (9m,11m,13) and had an absolute blast the first time we took them out. Hang time is awesome, relatively aggressive and all over pretty awesome. Unfortunately my 5th time on the kite hit the water relatively hard and the leading edge and bladder popped all the way on the stitching. Pretty Nasty for a kite thats been flown less than 10 hours but Crazyfly have provided me with relatively okay deal. The other guys are still flying their Kites and very happy with them and we will be looking at ordering the new Sculp soon enough. Definitely gets a thumbs up for being a great kite but it would be wrong not to mention the leading edge problem.

cheers for the review. The guys at crazy fly are pretty sound. Id heard from other people that theyre a fun kite, and a good first attempt.So did they sort u a new kite?

No New kite which I'm not too happy about as this isn't the norm like other suppliers but they gave a 50% discount on a new kite and a free bladder. As a first kite I think everyone is in agreement that its a lot of fun, I'm interested in their school kites (Moo Wii) for my shop but there isn't too much feedback yet or any forums.
