Yes, it flys just as well on 4 lines. Pulley bar, fixed, Fricken loop/rooster ring, stock - it's all bueno.

| i am really offended by this guy. he sails all over the world with a swedish bombshell and kites everyday. it is absolutely disgusting and should not be shown to those of us sitting behind a computer in the cold NW. i just cannot sit by and watch this type of behavior. i am going to hide in a bathroom stall and cry. |

Some cool photos from Crissy yesterday - 2009, 10m Diablo, in " old school " four line mode, Nothing hybrid at all about this C.
Ships with five line bar, easily convertible to 4 for the core.

I got a chance to ride that 10m Diablo yesterday. That's me in those pics.
It's been quite a while since I've been on a true C and I was pretty surprised at how comfortable it felt, even in Crissy's funky winds. It was a nice change after being on an SLE for so long. I rode it in 4 line mode, so it was a pretty simple "old school" set up with no clutter at the bar. The chicken dick had even been removed from the huge loop.
It handled the gusts really well and didn't yank me around much at all. You could ride it every day at Crissy and be happy, but the Rise is better in the gusts. Power was nice and consistent all the way through turns and loops, that sensation is missing from even the best SLEs. It pivots nicely and pulls strong when looped. Nice unhooked with good slack and not the crazy pull from unhooking my Rise. It's also fun to just let go of the bar and keep most of your power, there is only about 10" or 12" of bar throw.
Definitely not the same power per meter that I'm used to, felt about a size smaller than the Rise. Relaunch is something that I don't miss about C kites. In 4 line it took a stroke or 2 of swimming to get it to roll back and take off. With a little practice it wasn't bad, and since I the Diablo inspired some more aggressive riding I got to practice 6 or 7 times. |
