La Screamer 10LTD revient , les petits tailles de Screamer seront plus stable (un gros manque en 2010) et les grosses tailles 12-14 seront plus rapide et moins de pression en barre.

La Renegade, que j’ai rider. offrira moins de pression à la barre (moins je trouvais en 2010 , qu’elle en avait beaucoup trop) , La 11M va offrir plus de puissance.

Il y aura aussi des boards.

Texte en anglais,

For 2011, Epic Kites is continuing the Screamer, Renegade, and Junior Pro lines. Each kite has had small refinements made to it and Epic claims that they were able to improve every kite in the Epic line.

Like in 2010, there will also be a 10m LTD Screamer, which is designed to be an ultra-performance and very powerful kite. The Epic bar is staying much the same, but features new colors and a new center hole to reduce wear.

For those who have children who want to start kiteboarding, the Junior Pro is a kite specially designed for kids. Epic founder Dimitri Maramenides filled us in on what we can expect from Epic for the 2011 model year.

Renegade

Why would a rider who loved the 2010 Epic kites want to upgrade to the 2011 versions?
The 2010 kites are still amazing kites, so if you just purchased a 2010 kite I would not recommend that you buy a 2011 kite yet, unless you want to upgrade the quiver and get a better and improved version.

Are any changes being made to the Epic Bar?
The bar will remain the same but we changed the colors on the bar and we made a new hole on the bar so now the line of the CL can move in and out easier. We also changed the thickness of the lines and made them thicker and stiffer so it is easier to unroll the lines.

What was the approach to making changes on the new kites?
We are able to succeed in this industry because we listen to customer’s needs and work with them. You will see not only that our kites are superior quality compared to other brands but the performance and the customer service is incredible. Don’t take my word for it, just give us a try and you will see.

Epic Screamer
What type of riders are the Screamer, Renegade, and Junior Pro 4 designed for?
The Renegade was designed for all around riders, from teaching to wave riding to power moves to jumping. In a few words it’s a kite that can do everything you desire. Personally I love the Renegade for the waves. Now on the other hand the Screamer was designed for riders looking for big jumps, big hang time, big kite loops, and a very fast kite.

The Junior Pro 4 was designed by Cameron Maramenides, the world’s youngest pro rider. The size will be 4m with 20 meter lines, but this is not a toy! It is a kite made for those of us who really want our kids to excel and not just put them on a smaller version of what an adult rides. This kite has the performance of the Renegade line but in a smaller size made for the young guns. The one pump, compact bridle, super easy relaunch, and incredible depower also make it a kite that is excellent to teach those just starting out. Watch out though, pretty soon junior will be out-jumping you!

[b]What was some of the rider input on the 2010 gear that you put into the 2011 Epic kites?[/b]
The response on the 2010 kites was amazing from riders across the world with varied riding styles and needs. Most of our customers told us not to change anything on the kites, but we knew we could improve on the performance and construction. With a few tweaks and small changes we made the 2011 kites even better than the 2010.

[b]What are the standout changes?[/b]
For the 2011 Screamer, we made the 12m and 14m sizes 12% faster and reduced the bar pressure by 8%. We then took the construction to a new level and reinforced key areas for added strength. The 7m and 9m Screamer have undergone small construction improvements and minor tweaks for enhanced unhooked performance.

The 2011 Renegade 9m meter was improved to make it 12% faster with 10% less bar pressure and we added reinforcements. The Renegade 6m was near perfect, but riders will enjoy additional reinforcements and minor tweaks on the bridle for the 2011 version. Our greatest challenge was updating the Renegade 11m. We wanted to make this kite more powerful with less bar pressure and faster than its predecessor.

To pull this off we went back to the drawing board and started from scratch, but we were able to make the 11m substantially more powerful and significantly faster with totally stability!

You are continuing the 10m LTD Screamer for 2011. How is this kite different than the standard Screamer?
The Limited Edition is an extremely powerful kite using the same design characteristics but with a slightly different profile making this 10m as powerful as any other 12m kite.

For 2011 we decided to tweak the plans of the 10 LTD to improve the direct feel. Now not only do you get the amazing hang time, but unhooking is even better than last year’s model with powerful grunt, amazing pop, and explosive jumps.

Voici le textuel de l’essai de la Griffin 10m 2010 , fait par l’équipe de SBC KiteBoarding.

Size Tested: 10 m
Style: Four line SLE hybrid

Control Bar and Safety Sytems
The 2010 Griffin four line control has a smooth EVA grip with black and colour coding. The long trim line runs through a smooth rolling ronstan pulley and adjusts below the bar through a cleat adjustment centred on the new quick-release trim loop. The pull-down release is opposite of most push away trim releases and is located on one side of the molded top portion of the loop. The trim loop design ensures the trim loop is easy to hook in and out of for unhooked freestyle. The primary safety uses the long length of the trim line to depower the kite by pulling in both front steering lines. Emergency release handles also add safety and are located above the long foam floats. This bar does the job and is simple to set-up and has a smooth working cleat and trim system.

On the Water
The Griffin kite has always been a value leader with a congregation of devout followers interested in the highest performance-to-price ratio. This season the Griffin steps up the build quality with Tejin canopy cloth, reduced paneling and a dacron reinforced trailing edge. The bridles on the Griffin have been tweaked and leading edge optimized for less drag with good results. The 2010 Griffin has improved wind range, and some additional tunable performance of the kind commanded by a variety of skill levels. Compared to last year’s Griffin, the depower is accessible at arm’s length, the steering speed is faster and the kite has more direct steering with smoother control through gusts. The Griffin is a powerhouse for jumping and delivers good lift and solid drive with plenty of hang time. The kite also pulls smoothly off the front lines and sits well parked, which offers good feel and control for unhooked pop. A good All-Terrain Freeride kite, the Griffin is poised to appeal to the more advanced rider this year that likes to park his kite, boost some air and unhook. The steering speed of the Griffin isn’t as precision oriented as some might like, but this is overcome by some smooth power through transitions and has a combination of pivotal style turning with some power generation in the second half of the turn. The combination of good depower, and grunty pull make the Griffin a top choice for the value conscious progressive freerider.

Reality Check
The pull-down system of the release of the chicken loop is opposite of what most are used to so it takes some effort to switch the mindset.

Bottom Line
Great improvements from last year’s Griffin make this kite more suited to intermediate or advanced freeriders that want a versatile All-Terrain design with optimum value.
