2011 BEST KAHOONA V3 KITE 7.5M WITH BAG (NEVER USED) This 2011 Best Kahoona 7.5M kite was bought new and never used. I took it out of the bag and rolled it out to take these pictures. However, it has never been pumped up nor been in the water. Recently, a friend bought a quiver of new 2012 Kahoona kites and unfortunately was injured on vacation. He will not be able to kite this year, so he sold me a bunch of his kiteboarding equipment, which includes a 2012 Kahoona 7.5M. So I'm now selling this 2011 Kahoona V3 7.5M kite. This Kahoona 7.5M kite includes: 2011 Kahoona V3 7.5M kite Compression Bag Technical Backpack Bag NOTE: The first and last photos, showing the kite flying, are stock photos of a 2011 Kahoona in the same color combination as the kite being offered for sale. They are intended solely to show the colors and shaping of the 2011 Kahoona kite. See what the reviewers say about the 2011 Kahoona kites: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The Kahoona V3 is still the Delta kite to beat, delivering the perfect mix of freeride, new-school and wave riding performance. The V3 combines rock solid stability, smooth power delivery, endless depower and precise handling, making it the perfect kite for advancing your riding level, regardless of your preferred riding style. Freeriders who love the Kahoona for its surprising hang-time and great low end power will be blown away by the improvements we’ve been able to make to its high wind stability and low wind performance. When wave riding, the Kahoona V3 serves up its best attributes, combining incredible downwind drift, precise steering response and huge depower, whether you’re going down the line or being chased by the close out. The Kahoona V3 allows you to perform the latest unhooked new-school tricks. The effortless re-launch motivates you to learn new moves and gives supreme confidence to wave riders who simply have to be able to re-launch their kites before the next set comes in. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Best Kahoona V3 Size Tested: 9.5, 11.5 The Kahoona V3 returns in its third incarnation with some refinements in shaping, materials and bridles that have energized its overall performance. Hailed in previous tests as a big boost, big hang-time kite, the Kahoona V3 promises total versatility for freestyle, waves or for taking your riding to the next level. Performance Highlights • Huge glide capability for old-school danglers• Lighter bar pressure than last year’s• Versatile performance for waves and freestyle On the Water The Kahoona V3 continues on the path of evolution with a central canopy, swept wing-tip shape and upgrades to its compact V3 bridle system. Best has done a great job at building an entire line of kites that work distinctively for different riding styles and skill levels. The Kahoona V3 is the Delta hybrid of the line that has become a favourite on beaches around the globe, especially amongst the quickly and aggressively advancing newbies. The test riders were impressed with how much beefy grunt the Kahoona had last season, as even on short lines, it pumped you along to plane quickly. Although not as predominantly grunty this year, the 2011 Kahoona V3 has more nimble steering control and is smoother while unhooked. If you are an aspiring freestyle or wakestyle rider, the Kahoona will cross over to the park with decent results, but its real niche is freeride big-air gliding, as well as formidable wave performance. It remains a jumping kite, as testers noted its big hang time and smooth lift for takeoff and landings. Easy water relaunch and solid stability with no back-stalling issues to speak of make the Kahoona an ideal school kite that you won’t easily outgrow. Its fast pivotal turns and good drift capability give it plenty of prowess for waveriding, as well. In fact, the 11.5 would be an ideal jumbo wave kite. Bottom Line The Kahoona V3 will satisfy a lot of riders with its value-packed featu... read more
