Yeh I had the original XRs, have flew all the next gen. XR3 had the shortest bridle of them all, should have seen the bridal length on the earlier models!! Great kite (And bar), Yeh big wind range to, but 'do it all' well it doesn't. Nothing does. Believe that and you probably stay up at night to try and sneak a look a Santa claus.
Well it was certainly crap unhooked and I found it too heavy for waves. But hey, do it all freeride. Everyone knows that any kite advertised as freestyle freeride and wave kite is only good at marketing and will probably suck at most of the categories or at least at 2 of the 3.
