Kite surfing review Peter Lynn Escape 11m 2015
Test conditions:
water: flat
wind: 13 - 23 knots
test settings: 20m and 23m lines
Conclusion:
We tested this 11m Escape in a very wide wind range, because we had the moms, dads and hard working weekend riders, in mind. Kitesurfers who just have a few moments to ride and those moments aren't always the best ones. Nevertheless you want to go out, right now! Well the Escape has that wide usability range. Great low and high end. At its low end the Escape is an easy to ride, fast turning kite with a great relaunch. At its high end you have a great depower and nice sheet & go airtime kite. A bit heavy on the bar, but nice for the feedback. Attach that with a mellow lift and you have a comfortable feel in overpowered situations.
Big air allrounders, expect a fast kite with a great float and stable on/off bar control.
