Mars here, part owner of LiquidSurfDesigns and importer of Royal Kiteboarding.
Due to my position this could come across pimpish, which i try to avoid and keep it brieve.
I am 85 kg, average kiteboarder, and choose to fly the 12m Era as my prefered kite from 15 to 25 knots.
What i like about my Era.
The Kite has a direct feel,
quick response, turns really fast.(fastest i've riden)
is really powerfull, like a tonne o grunt,(again most power ive experienced, could opt easily a size smaller)
the lift and hang time, boost is like i havent experienced on a other kite yet.
Simple construction, quality stands up so far no problemo( been flying the Kite for 4 months)
The bar feels good on the Hands, lines can be adjusted inside or outside, which makes the bar 10 cm different in length.
i love the design, looks and last but not least the philosophy of the brand.
The Bag is kool, over the shoulder style, big enough to fit the pump an aswell..
What i liked to see improoved.
the quick realease on the 09 Era is too sensitive, that's why we opt for the Solo system until further improovement of the Era quick relaese.
The depower system i would like to see coming below the bar for excellent rider comfort, its still above, in reaching distance..
together we will make it better !!
