EH Ovando

SKU: 490

Overview

The Ovando design focused on winds from 10 to 30 knots, in general when selecting sizes you need to too select 2M smaller than the average kite out there, 9M becomes a 7M Ovando, 12M becomes a 9M etc.. so smaller with the same power. This has been confirmed from feedback from all over the world.

No need for a huge kite and all of it's shortcomings as you will be the first one out on the water with the Ovando. Imagine riding an 11m or 13m when others are on 16m and larger.

The Ovando will be appreciated by the experienced riders, it’s like a race car, it is fast and powerful in every sense of the word and screams up wind effortlessly.

Bottom line is that the riders are just blown away by its excellent all-round performance. From strapless surfing to new school unhooked freestyle the Ovando excels in all departments.

Remember when buying the Ovando to choose a size smaller than you would on other kites.

OK, 3 words to describe this kite- POWER, POWER & POWER Pumped the 9m Ovando today (available for demo) in marginal winds that I usually don't bother pumping up in as these days my biggest kite is a 12m "C" kite. To my surprise I was motoring along on my 139cm board. Five minutes in I knew there was no need for the big plank and went to my 131cm board. The wind picked up after a while and as I was on the most powerful setting I had to tweak the de-power strap on a bit. I can't say how windy it was as the closest beacon tends to over state the wind by a couple of knots and our beach is in a bit of a shadow. I would guess it was around 11 knots at the start and up to 18 for the last 10 minutes. Other kiters were another heavy weight on a 19m Speed, a middle weight on a 19m speed and two light weights on pump ups one with a skim. I won't make comparisons to them though as it wasn't an upwind comp or anything. I didn't try too much with regards to the kites general performance for jumping or unhooked as I was mostly consumed by the power trip but will review in more depth later. Those who know me well are fully aware that I am the first to ignore advertising hype about kite performance until I try it myself but at this point I am absolutely convinced this is the most powerful kite per meter I have ever used. If you are considering one of these definately get a size or 2 smaller than you would normally fly. As an every day kite for 85kg I would say the 9m is enough. Jas
