  1. Finally! The opportunity to test the Detox 2019 Super Ultra Light thoroughly. No wind up to gusty 5 knots. Great fun! Very satisfying to still be able to fly in these conditions.

  3. Sure thing! I am also very excited to test the SUL extensively. But at the moment it's 6-7 bft and I'm flying other kites with pleasure
  4. Los Hermanos (esste.com) have released a Super Ultra Light (SUL) for their Detox 2019 series. I've had mine for a few days now. The SUL has a size of 244 x 76 cm. So it's a bit lower than the other Detox. The weight with spars is 145g. The leading edge is made of spinnaker and fitted with Sky Shark 2P. The verticals are made of conical Sky Shark 2PT. The end caps are adapted accordingly: Top (LE) small opening, bottom (wingtip) larger opening. The end caps are of their own high quality and are not very bulky. As usual, the LE is not tensioned with rubber, but with Detox's own string system (but without the additional endcap). The bridle is a half bridle, i.e. the upper and lower bridle lines are not connected. I have not yet had the opportunity to fly the SUL extensively (strong gusts). The recommended wind range is 0 - 4 mph. Although the first tests have also been flown at up to 9 mph. But I really like the first impression: The quality of craftsmanship is top. The SUL makes a very fragile impression on the ground. Super light! In the air, however, it is stable, precise and reacts directly. But what @John Barresi does with his Djinndoor (prototype), I wouldn't put the SUL through that. That's fine - then this option remains open and eagerly awaited By the way: I also had two printed kites made by Los Hermanos at the same time. A Rokkaku 1.5 and a Quad Super Custom. The print on both sails is really great. As far as I know, there are two suppliers (for us here in Europe) who have sails printed: Los Hermanos in Spain and Polo in China. Quad Super Custom flies similarly to my Rev 1.5 John Barresi STD. Great! I am excited about it. Pictures of all kites can be found in my album: gallery/album/487-bundukivlieger/

  21. I would say that even as a beginner / less frequent flyer you notice the direct change B Series - Djinn - Detox - B Series immediately. Especially when you play with different line lengths. But the most obvious difference is the immediate, clear leap in quality in the craftsmanship. Every time I set up my Djinn, for example, I am delighted by the small details (such as the end caps or the bridle). All my B Pro by Bazzer had to be restored in the meantime (LE, gauze).
