Thanks for linking my post above Dimitri. Yeah, these kites are sick and performance oriented. But one thing that struck me about the Renegade in particular was how that kite begs to launch itself. Self launching has never really been a issue to me as I've been kiting for some time and have mastered various methods of doing so, but I can't remember the last kite that was so damn effortless. I barely moved it and in popped up on it's side, followed that up with what was hardly a tug and just like that, it was up in the air. Not that this is the most important quality in a kite to me (heck, it better perform on the water or who needs a good launching kite that sucks in all other aspects), but it's a nice-to-have feature
