Obsessed

Watched a rider go out on what was I believe a 10.5 obsession, conditions seemed like 9 meter when he started out and he was still kiting when there were no more caps. Anyone else have any experiance with this kite?

IMO, I really did not like the obsessions....I flew a 12m and it felt slow and sluggish. The range was very small, maybe 5 knts between being over or underpowered. Definetly not my style of kite.

I'm sure someone can chime in here about the 10.5, I've heard from people that the 10 is a lot better. shawn richman seems to like them Wink
