Kite Surfing

Hi Guys,
As I saw this BAr update, I am really curious, if it will be some improvement or not.
I bought Griffin Argo Quiver (13.5 and 9) and sad to say the 13.5 is really horrible.My Spleene Q 12m is able to keep me going and jumping in 10knots, but Argo 13.5 is not. I tried different bridle settings but without any result.
Next day was 14knots and I was able to comfortably go upwind, but the kite is so slow, that after one hour session I had to change to my Spleene Q.Same day I tried my friends Wainman Rabit Boss 12m, and wow what a differance.Boss was so quick and powerfull, that jumping and Kiteloops were easy like with 9m kite.
One more thing to mension is, that the deflacion of Argo was my nightmare. The thiny rubber tube connecting Struts with LE are bending and therefore its not possible to deflate the Strut. You have to hold the small tube in appropriate position and press the strut to force the air go out.
After this experience I decided to give my Argos away and buy something else.

Yes and they also pivot in the turn too much which dumps ALL the power in a loop which sux and you will be putting it away at 20knt as that's about it's top end.

Griffin Kiteboarding has contacted us regarding this thread.

The individual making this post has been asked multiple times for the kite's serial number and the supplier of the kite, evidence of this has been supplied to us by Griffin Kiteboarding. Unfortunately after multiple attempts made by Griffin Kiteboarding to resolve the situation the individual creating this topic has repeatedly avoided supplying the kite's Serial Number and Place of Purchase. Due to this we have no option but to draw the conclusion that this is nothing more than a competing brand using a fake account to slander a competing product. This type of behaviour we do not welcome nor encourage on Extreme Kites.
