Hi everyone, I would like to know what everyone thinks about the new design of the Naish Helix, is it that good as they say with relaunching?

If your referring to the old Naish sigma shaped Helix ?

Relaunch was nothing special as the kites were built pretty heavy, if your a newbie or have limited kiting experience I wouldn't go anywhere near one.

I owned one of the first helix's. 08 or 09. It was pretty average. The depower was good and it was fast enough back in the day. It was pretty unstable though and I found it would often Hindenburg, relaunch was pretty average and not much low end.

I had a Girlfriend who owned a 2009 Helix and quite frankly it was the bastard son of the Naish range....

I owned the 2009 and it was a handful to say the least. Got rid of it as soon as I could.
