Demoed the 8m wow it was a powerful little kite. would have just been touching on 20knots personally I feel this kite is better suited to freerideing. it turned quite quick when the kite was loaded, as soon as I went downwind it wouldn't respond to steering input, just sat there and dropped back in the window. Relaunch was fine. It pulled me off the board a few times through the window from the power and lift it creates. I tested this kite strapless with 20m lines, might be different on that monstrosity of a bar they call the mission control (rip cpr bar) i ended up with a v4 reo 8
I demo the kite 12 and 14 meter wow 2017. Lots of power and turned a lot quicker than a NEO 2015. I demo the wow, sst waves religion and naish slash kite on the same day and wind speed. the wind was light. The wow has a lot more power of all the kites I flew on that day.The religon RRD kite also has the same power. The only problem I found in the two hours I flew the kite is the line tangled when I self launch. The same problem I had with the NRG liquid force kites. I self launch everyday with NEO, RIde and REOs kites and the back lines don't get tangle. I will buy a used one and keep testing the kite pm waves. cheers
