    Interesting move from Ozone, loved to hear about the 16 point connection points with no pulleys, proper big air kite! 👏

    Amazing kite! I had a chance to try it and also to interview few pro riders after the session. Some of them did their first double loops with Vortex and everyone were amazed by ease of doing loops and responsiveness. Also, few of the riders broke their PR records in the jump heights. So what to say guys - you have to try it to believe it! 😃🤙🏽

      Thanks for sharing your feedback on the Vortex! We're stoked to hear about the first double loops and record-breaking jumps! Looking forward to seeing you guys ripping it!

    I tested both 8m Edge v12 and Vortex 8m. Overall the vortex is easier to make tricks, his catch on heliloops and zenith is better, faster reactive turning and less bar pressure compared with EDGE. Vortex recovers faster after a kiteloop. Edge v12 has a bit more hangtime, end feels more confortable when riding fully overpowered. But I managend to make my tricks landed easier with the vortex due to his catch and faster stearing you can easily fix a kite position mistake juts before landing. The Vortex is a more allrounded and can do better than the edge in different styles. I also like the vortex for strapless freeestyle. For Foiling i thing the Vortex will be better because its ligther and faster and goes faster foward. I love both kites and now I have a problem, witch one I take for a session :P

    Hello great review. I will use it for foiling and we normally like to go fast for long distance normally go out and do between 60 kms or 100 kms. it goes as fast as the Edge on free riding Foil. And also how is the bar pressure compare with the Evo Dlab or other kites with soft bar pressures.

    I tested it yesterday with sized 9m. But I'm curious.what size recommended to do double loops to try?

  • @Baptiste_L
    @Baptiste_L 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Why is there no 12m kite and bigger ?
    These Aluula kites are really good in light wind, with bigger kite size flying in no wind.
    Will you produce a specific light wind kite using Aluula ?

  • @lucasdemelo3
    @lucasdemelo3 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    The question is, has it gotten the easily accessible hang-time? Big air Aluula kites seems to lack that (usually needs to fly actively), that would be a huge differentiator.

    I use Edge's can you compare the Vortex to the Edge in terms of big air and hang time.

    • @DavidTonijuan
      @DavidTonijuan 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      Hi, we love the Edge and we are very happy you use it. The Edge takes people to the moon and the Vortex will help a huge number of riders improve their performance levels. If you are happy with the Edge, you should then try the Vortex... We are working on presenting the comparisons in the rage, more information coming soon.

      @@DavidTonijuan A love the Edge, I was comparing specifications and it seams that Vortex needs a bit more wind than the Edge (comparing size x size). Why not make a Vortex 12 that can be compared to a Edge 11 or even a 10?

    and if possible I would also be interested in a comparison with the Edge in terms of upwind ability, this Vortex is an amazing step in the future, but maybe it's a little less high aspect than the Edge, so for kiters most interested to performance freeride which is the most appropriate, as upwind riding, and taking advantage of apparent wind building?

      Everyone loved the boost / float of Edge , though is on the slower side for turns. Imagine a souped up edge, and here we go.

    all aluula kites should have a special section dedicated to foil and light wind relaunch. as a big air foil rider i want a kite that jumps over 30mt, does doubles but also that is able to roll in the water and fly again in 6-7 knots. with such high aspect it could be a problem

    • @candelalux1403
      @candelalux1403 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Foil + Big Air (jumps) + Loops kind of cancel each other out.. For foil you need a kite that can fly without producing a lot of power and for big jumps you need a high aspect all panels hit the wind kite and for loops you need a quick turning direct steering kinda low aspect but can take you decently high kite.
      That’s why triples on a XR Pro are garbage because the kite produces too much power & doesn’t turn super easily through the wind and is bad for foiling as well. It’s a bow kite
      Only kite that would fit into your description is maybe a Evo Dlab as it’s 3 strut, not super much power & kinda fast turning kite
      Will still pull you off a foil as it gets too much power
      It’s like wanting a roadbike for going down the mountain trails super fast - you can’t fit every aspect into a kite

      @@candelalux1403some kites do fit it. Evo dlab is an example, new slingshot code aluula could be another one. 90% of today users do bigair and foil on light wind days so nothing strange. About the pull is not a problem, to jump high with the foil I am getting used to go out in 25/27 knots with my 9 and foil

    Don't sound like a car salesman, yet sounds like every new kite manufacturer mouthpiece that has a new kite... 🙈
    Compere it to something..... An older ozone, if you're afraid of upsetting other brands....
    Only better addition is the 16 point system = less movement / mishaping of the kite under load, ie when looping = less lift/ air volume dump? Ie more air time/ float...
    If im committed to a brand... You gotta convince me to come over.....
