whatever it is you are useing. if you havent maxed it out at 100% and you still have enough room to develop and grow on it further then stick with it. it will make progressing easier then a new kite. but if your sitting around 90% i say get something a little more advanced and higher performance.
it really depends on where you are development wise.

i wouldnt buy a torch because im not ready yet. maybe you are

Hi pro merc. I'll be after a 2017 though, not the 2016 which I've just sold, was a great kite.

I rode a 2016 on the weekend in Sri Lanka. What a gem to loop. Good luck trying to find a 2017 tho!

how was it unhooking ?

^^ sick pic mate, where was the photographer situated to get that shot? Looks like maybe off a boat?

After years on the freeride big jumping kites
I've been looking at other options
The new parks got a glowing report from the kiteworld crew at cape town whilst testing plenty in that class
I'd also look at or better demo
Enduro
Gts 4
Vegas
Dice ( new)
Rpm
Union
Etc etc etc, I found some kites needed to be set on certain settings to be appealing

nice loop. definitely keen to upgrade to these but cut between the french bandit

I like both of those kites. But 2016 naish bar doesn't have below bar swivel. What were they thinking
