I have flown the Titan a few times on land with my mountain board and so far I have been loving it the power in the kite is amazing and the de-power is fantastic I would say that you get 3/4 the pull when the bar is out! Wind was 5-8mph, onshore and fairly steady. The kite was easy to self launch take it out of the bag, unwind lines, pre-inflate it a little and then put some sand on the wind tip, walk down to lines, attach the safety clip and then clip into the chicken loop…deep breath and then take off. For take off I had the kite on full yellow (depower) and it effortlessly went up to the zenith and stayed there at first it would slightly overfly a little but by adding a little of the blue (power up) it would sit really stable and not luff.

he makers of the kite Gin Gliders are relatively unknown with the UK Kite community, although they have actually been the paragliding world cup winners for the last 5 years. The company has been going for 15 years, and when looking at the kite you can see that their experience and knowledge has been transferred across into their kites

The Mac range of kites is relatively unknown within the kiting community; they are another paraglider manufacturer which has diverged into kites. Anyone who has a look at the Mac bego will realize that this is kite to look out for in the future. The reason will become apparent as soon as you get the opportunity to fly one at a festival, event or from a nice friend!<

Naish are more commonly associated within the water side of kiting, but this has changed with their new foil the Element – aimed towards the KiteATB market. As they are not new to kiting the package is well rounded with good finishing, the kite has only recently been released and over the forthcoming year we can see how it competes in the marketplace.

I have only been out with the kite twice due to the lack of wind! I was fed up of waiting for wind so decided to go down to setup the kite anyway. There was literally no wind but both the 10m and the 14m flew incredibly well. Stable, fast and smooth even in the lack of wind.
