Best Waroo 2008 Kite Review
Kite Features
Optimized load distribution through the VP2 system. Full customization thanks to the direct rear bridle. The large wingtip control surfaces make the kite more responsive which is ideal when surfing freestyle or unhooked.
Kite Overview
According to the people at Best you will be surprised by the new Waroo. For 2008 this Dacron/Rip-Stop SLE has been completely redesigned according to customer specifications and client feedback. The only way that they could keep on top of the game was by producing high quality merchandise and the only way to do that is to listen to the consumer and find out what he thinks about your product. Load distribution between the wing tips and the center of the LE is achieved with the aid of the VP2 short-throw front pulley system. This makes for a more stable kite that can be ridden deeper into the wind window. You can set up the turning speed power delivery and depower to your needs with the multiple line configuration. The most attractive part about this kite is not the fact that it is top end high performance; it is the fact that it is incredibly affordable. You will be hard pressed to find another kite that offers the same quality and performance at the same low price.

Control Bar
If you decide to go for a fifth line system there is a two-piece pressure-swaged stainless-steel centre bushing on the bar. The size of its center hole is increased. The bar is made of carbon fiber. The bars have fiber-reinforced molded bar ends and padded inserts on the incurve. These have been fitted so as to reduce the strain on the outside of your hand whenever you do an unhooked loop. Bar Features Reduced release force. Simple single-handed assembly. Full biaxial carbon fiber construction. Thanks to the dual rear line OSR handles this kite has multiple dual redundant safety options. All of these come in handy when launching or landing regardless if you do it with or without the handle pass leash.
