Any news on changes aside from the new 7-point 5'th line and the new bar? I think i'm more interested in the new bar to be honest!

i just stumbled across this pic today so I thought i would post it. I can't find anymore info. i was actually looking for TB boards the ones that chasta rides and just came across the pic. I agree with you on the bar. Hopefully they have improved the chicken loop also.

Have you seen the proto for the chicken loops that was posted on Appozone?
It's got kinda a cross between a North QR(?) and a SS QR... here's a picture of the snowkite version which is apparently very similar (read as identical) to the water version... known as the Megatron.


Also, the comments that went with that photo you posted on Appozone was something along the lines of 'yeah that was one of the early prototypes, we've come a fair bit further than that.'

A bit of a tangent but damn these Instinct Sports look HAWT! They're apparently a custom set for some Swiss company/team.

thanks Koma ,........... have you come across the designers notes on the new gear yet??, I was thinking that the new line attachment system will give the edge even more hang time. I would be keen to find out what he had in mind.
The new bar looks real good.
I have already asked my shop to order the new edge as soon as it is available. (there will be a really nice 07 13m edge for sale as soon as the 08 is available.)
