I tried out Tony's 6m Noise at Wedge this weekend for a few hours in about 20-25 knots, what an awesome kite!

The Noise is extremely grunty, felt much much more powerful than my 7m Octane in the same wind conditions. the Kite is extremely solid in the air, when you get on a wave it just holds itself running down the line, and turns on a dime.

The bar is quite comfortable, a more plastic type rubber than the slingys. feels like a bit more bar pressure than the Slingys, nice and simple with everything below the bar.

The only complaint would be the depower seems to get jammed easily with the 3x ropes running through one tight space into the loop. (The kite may have been a prototype I'm not sure)

My 2 cents.

The bar tony had was one of the test team bars - the depower rope has been reduced now to fix this issue -
Glad you like the kite

here is the clip of the bar for those that want to see it
