This is my Review on the HP Nemesis So I went for my first kite on the new 09 HP Nemesis It was 15 /21knots S - SW & big swell. I was the only one that got out the back & the waves were a good 6m tall huge bombs. Went with a cople of local guys. I must admit It was gusty & narly out, Matt on a Rev & my self on the HP were the only Two to finish. (HA HA!). Good kite. lighter on the bar than the 08 & has more depower, When depowered it seems to have a more of a C shape with less flat surface area I think this is good it makes the kite seem smaller & allows the kite to sit back in the wind window when not under power, & it does'nt get that invert look you get on bows (the wind hitting the top of the canopy & fluttering). But with the power on. The canopy has a similar shape to the 08, although the trailing edge is now slightly escoloped & could be silghtly deeper. The kite has a good snappy feel about it, much better than the 08 I did notice the twist tech working when turning the kite under load, that may be why the kite feels snappier & lighter in the bar. The relaunch is, well, OK but it does take some skill, in light wind.
I feel it is a intermediate to advanced kite. I love it I will be riding this kite most of the time. Can't wait to rip up some flat water on this baby. If you are looking for High Performance, low-down grunt & power with range this is the kite, give your Bow kite to the girls. This is my opinion, you will have to demo one to have your own.
I am going to Bribie with a crew on Tues, 20 to 16 SW. So I will do some filming.
Best Regards Jonno Mojo
PS; If you are on the SE Coast you are welcome to come to Bribie on Tues I have some 09 kite Brands you can demo .
