The sonic bar pressure is neither heavy nor light, apparently its just perfect!! The turn rate of the kite is super fast as well, apparently faster than a RRd type6!!

Cant wait!!!!!!!!!!

Actually "mr I put my hand up animals arses". Im paying for my kites. Because of my kite school, I obviously get offered a lot of free kites, However Ive given back my free kites, and am paying for kites, because I want a certain one, and brand.

It says GK, beneath my name, because as with any other kite pimp out there Im spreading the word!!

Incidentally, just checked on the shipment and its less than 2 weeks, I should also have a demo on Monday.

Like wise, Im gagin to get mine. I got a serious lofting again today, Boys on the beach said it was 15-20 foot, and I landed in less than an inch of the wet stuff, admitedly it was 25-30 knots and gusty, but hope fully the de power will make life safer, from reports 30 foot jumps are becoming common place with the sonic as well!! ooer!!

It's good to see everyone getting excited! Looking forward to seeing all these new kites on the beach. And hearing the reviews.

For me, I'll wait 'till next year when they've ironed out the lumps and bumps....

Talking of ironing kites, I heard of someone who tried to iron their wetsuit once!!!!... They didn't try it again.

tried two bow's today not on water land only, gusty conditions, one was ok but did overfly a bit in the gusts, the other was very good light on the bar, maybe even to light wierd feel etc,but the ability to kill power seemed to work, only static flew but potential looks to be there.

should be on the water with them soon and give a better feed back, sorry but can't say what brands, all i will say that its not flexi or north and there due out V soon..

SO FAR IMPRESSED THE PERFECT QUIVER MAYBE..!!!!

From what I've read and seen on other forums it looks like the Cabrinha Xbow is the kite to go for.

Still waiting for mine to arrive...it's in the port waiting to be checked. Come on you damn porties!!
