If you are willing to pay a little more the Diesel has one pump which is sweet but really you can't go wrong with any of the three kites. :mrgreen:

I just bought the same sizes and I'm a bit confused, to say the least, how they are supposed to be installed. Any chance for a show and tell?dewey wrote:Nothing, I still can't get the 12m to engage. It's the 17m that works well. Maybe the 12m flys too far foward in the window.Dewey,
What did you do to dial the SAFE bridles in?
I'd be happy to rig them for you if i see you on the beach. Offer goes for anyone else as well. Once you've done a couple kites, it's automatic-easy.panzerfaust wrote:I just bought the same sizes and I'm a bit confused, to say the least, how they are supposed to be installed.

sweet, thank you so much, I don't know what you look like but I'm sure we've seen each other at the beach.BayAreaKite wrote:I'd be happy to rig them for you if i see you on the beach.

Ollie
yeah, the video quality is pretty bad but I will definitely see if I can figure it out before I take up Ollie on his offer.the wing wrote:There is a new SAFE installation video hosted on www.windwing.com. Go to the forum, and at the top of the General Kiteboarding discussion there is a video (low res) on how to install the system. It takes a minute to download, but should help answer questions. Thanks.

My orginal posting was differentiating/comparing 3 different brands. Perhaps I should have quantified the effort to setup the SAFE system. First, Ollie was kind enough to setup one of my kites and I used it to check the rigging of my other 2 kites. Second the WW forum/feedback is really good. Third, if I see you on the beach, I'd be happy to check out your lines.jowall wrote: It's a bit of a hassle to install & tune the safe bridles but worth the effort for performance. It's such a simple and efficient idea.
