How do all you link-riders like em? I am used to Fuels, and Waroos...just curious how I would like them. Any input would help cuz I'm sure these will go quick. http://www.realkiteboarding.com/index.cfm?page=detail&catID=559&productID=8184 Thanks, Jake chanson Since 31 Jan 2006 1280 Posts Portland XTreme Poster Fri May 04, 2007 11:41 am     man, that chanson dude is a turd.... I'm not going to reply to his post. Mark Since 20 Jun 2005 2325 Posts I need my fix because I'm a Naishaholic Fri May 04, 2007 11:49 am     Better than being a turd burgler! IMHO kites are getting better each year. That being said I am only interested in 07 or better yet 08 kites. So I say NO deal. _________________ Cleverly disguised as an adult... _________________ PM me for a Naish demo www.naishkites.com KITEADDICT Since 13 Apr 2006 103 Posts TIGARD OREGON Stoked Fri May 04, 2007 5:07 pm     I tryed the 06 link hated it.

I flew the 9m & 12m LINKs (with the updated bridle) in Maui last December (thanks for the demo Amery) and loved them! The kites handled the gusts very well. Tons of fun in the waves. Good pop and height when jumping, quick turning, bar with sliding stopper works great, etc. Similar to the Waroo, but the LINK has the option to ride with four lines or with the adjustable fifth line which makes it feel more like a ‘C’ kite and provides a greater range of tuning options. Picked up a 7m and 10.5 for the wife (I “borrow” the 10.5 when the wind cranks up and the 7 when it’s nuclear!). For comparison I ride a 13m Fuel and a 17.5 Machine and weigh 205lbs. ~D chanson Since 31 Jan 2006 1280 Posts Portland XTreme Poster Mon May 07, 2007 9:06 pm     's up!! thanks for the info. -Midwest is the best!        Northwest Kiteboarding -> Gorge / Portland / Oregon Coast All times are GMT - 8 Hours Page 1 of 1   Jump to: Select a forum Northwest Kiteboarding Discussion Forum----------------Gorge / Portland / Oregon CoastFor SaleLost & FoundIndustry SoapboxCGKA  You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum You cannot attach files in this forum You can download files in this forum
