Nobile NHP kite - Any reviews yet?

There are only a few demos in the country at the moment. We have a 555 here and I think there is a 666 HP in Sydney. Maybe ask your local Nobile dealer about a test ride?

Yes, used the 666NHP yesterday for approx 30 mins until the wind dropped and the tide changed.
Its a nice kite, fast, medium on the bar, great direct feel, good power through the turn, and not too radical depower at the bar.
Dropped it once, relaunch was easy, another rider had some trouble, but got it up after a few minutes.
More a kite for an experienced to advanced rider, wanting a lifty, powerful and fast kite.
Want to try it again in better conditions.
It was a 12M, when I started wind was approx 15-18knots, and I wasusing a 1.32 FLX staying upwind easy, but eneded up on the 1.52FLX and unable to stay upwind so quit for the day.

Will write a proper review soon.

Yep thanks koma

And the lines are good quality, just the heat shrink on the ends was an issue on some Cabrinha lines, and they dropped it. Its not needed and its only done to give the lines a "more quality look".
The bar is nice, I like the diamter and the grip of the bar and the finger gooves.
The hole through the middle is not huge, but in use it felt fine and I could sheet and steer at normal angles, at the same time.
Trim strap is too far away for me and I suspect a lot of people.
Chicken loop was great, and I like the design now that I have used it.
