In that issue we follow the broadening about tuning setup of BEST's SLE, 2008 generation.
The dream of Peter, R&D designer, was to project a polyvalent kite.
A kite able to satisfly the requirements of most riders maintaining all dowrys of dinamyc exellence and usability of new concepts and new details, as VP2. Designing a kite less "brutal", specially in the power delivery curve, due to a shape more "C"-shape oriented, the kites 2008 try to challenge to realize "polymorphic" kites. Ables to adapt to the differents styles, enlarging the usage destination and the satisfaction of riders keeping in mind following targets:
1) kite more suitable for unhooked;
2) more direct feeling due to the direct connection of backlines: no pulley on the backline on the kite, no pulley 2:1. Simplicity.
3) perfect behavior in all conditions: waveriding, freeriding. Freestyle, unhooked or wakestyle.
A purpose ambitious completely reached with last 2008 generation.
Best SLE Waroo 08 and Nemesis HP come with a backline setup totally customizable with 3 attachment points "A B C", as following picture. Please note the quality in building and assembling that points. The materials used for that will make *happy*and*satisfied* all 2008 Best buyer.
The possible combinations are 6: all very different (2 about less usable).
Last note: now the dinamyc effect is "reasonable" and sincere in any config.
The default setup is AA. That setting exalt le behavior of speed and depower.
The config we suggest at the most riders is AB. In effect, as we'll see, the most balanced.
But the new idea is, instead, just to adapt, if desired, the kite's behavior to conditions and to personal preferences and style of riding.
"Wearing" also reaction of the kite to personal level, to proper phisical structure and to own weight.
So this is the table to synthesize, isofar as a schema can do it, the behavior of differents combinations, relatively to Waroo 2008.
The Nemeis HP, follows enough accurately the table, accentuating the power, greater, at the cost of a slightly harder bar feeling in the same config.
