So one year after the crossbow explosion it seems everyone and there brother is offering "THE" bowkite.
I have a 9m crossbow and love it although the bar pressure can get really old and you really have to concentrate on not sheeting too much. I demo'd a 12m liquid force assault and I have to say it flew pretty damn nice. Less bar pressure and very good range.
Anyone have opinions or suggestions on bow kites? I have some cash buring a hole in my wallet 
Thanks,
Brian |

| I wonder, have you ever tried rigging with just a regular bar other than the stock CB one? I would say the Waroo has feather light bar pressure, but I think the difference is really just in the bar (pulleys on the bar vs. no pulleys.) |

i have heard that using the waroo bar on crossbows works pretty well.
If your going to buy a new kite i suggest you just try all of them out. all these bows fly pretty differiently and some will suit you better than others.
although i do think some are better than others. i was really really impressed by the 14 contra i flew yesterday. probably the best largeish kite i have ever tried. |
