whats the windspeed?

thanks

@teto191919 12-14. Mangroves blocked surface winds making butter conditions

I personally would suggest owning the liquid force envy 2011. I say that, but know I'm a 'C' kite flyer. People want more 'C' kite assets like the envy has, but still be able to turn like a newer kite turns. The envy does not twitch like a bow kite. I find bows unstable. I've done a 360 and damn near end up in traction. To fast for my style of jumping high and handle passes. Super easy to fly too. Good luck with your choice.

If possible, find an instructor with the envy, offer a 6-PAC and fly

Awesome vid, do you have any thoughts of the envy vs the havoc in terms of how they feel?

[riprockvx9]

@llamasrage I like the Envy's solid pull. Reminds me of a wakeboard boat. The Havoc is lighter to turn and quicker..little higher aspect.

cool vid, how light of wind is this and what you think is the low end for the kite, I have the 2010 and was wondering if this was a bit lower but still had the high end?

[riprockvx9]

@zh4k Winds were about 15 when I went out. The water was shadowed by mangroves and low tide.

The 2011 is super light. It hangs up there in 8kts wind. 2011 combined pull and stability like a 'C' kite but turns fast with bar inputs. FYI-Haven't used the 2010 Envy....In Honduras I stuck mainly with the 2010 Havoc 14m

@aliitil I copy/pasted it from my channel but it's still hard to find. It's a youtube track: "Stop" (blue mix) (Ghost_k)
