From a Happy customer.
Hey dude
Today was a good day on my EPIC ltd 10 meter . We have not had any wind for a long time in florida as you probly know.The kite is the best toy ever man.
There is a rumor over the beach that a local kite manufacture is about to copie the shape of your kite for the next year model.Do you know anything about that ?

I am still in Brazil and have met a guy that wants to buy my kite...
I will only sell it to him if I can get another one from you as i LOVE IT !!
Please let me know what you think?!
I was at a kite competition today and am going again tomorrow to show it off and get people interested
I have let 4 people try it so far and everyone loves it ALOT.
All the best

A word from the boss!
Working hard on the Demos.
Nothing new just selling kites and letting people demo them.
Look what people are saying on the KITEFORUM.

WARNING DO NOT BUY ANY OTHER KITE UNTIL YOU FLY AN EPIC KITE!!!
I have to agree with Makani, if you fly an Epic you will not go back, I have flown many kites and instantly fell in love with the screamer when I had a chance to demo one in Mexico last Christmas. I ended up buying the 10LTD for myself and a 6m Renegade for my girlfriend (and me when it is nuking).
Recently I had an issue with the main bladder of the 6m Renegade slowly leaking, I sent an e-mail to Dimitri and in a week I had a full replacement set of bladders on my doorstep free of charge. You can't beat that customer service! A buddy of mine had an issue with a harness from a company that I won't mention, but he spent months sending e-mails and making phone calls to try and get a warranty replacement, so it was a pleasant surprise to have Epic respond so quickly with no questions asked.
I have become a total convert, take these kites out for a session, you won't be disappointed!

I agree, I recently demo'd the 7m Screamer and the 14m screamer. I (beginner/intermediate kiter) got the impression from the description of the kites that these kites were only for advanced riders but from my experience flying them and riding with them, they are suited for anyone who wants to shoot upwind with extreme ease. They relaunch nicely and were very predictable, I was amazed at the angle i could achieve to get upwind which enabled me to relax and try new things, even in the great lakes waves these kites perform well! On Sunday i was underpowered on my 8.5m ion 3 but i was well powered on the 7m screamer...
If you get the chance, demo these kites, and what I'm told from Terry, all you need to do is ask, if he's on the beach....don't be shy, try the kites!
Sincerely
Pete

Have to agree with Pennohawk. I was stoked the first session on the Renegade(already left a review). I was equally impressed with the customer service....
1. Dimitri did not have one of my color choices, not a big deal. However, he made several phone calls until he found it. All my kites were at my door step within a week.
2. There was a small stain on one of the white panels, not a big deal. However, Dimitri replaced the kite with no questioned asked. I did not expect that.
3. Had quite a few questions about the kites while I was deciding to purchase. Dimitri always got back to me within the day.
Word of mouth is the best form of advertisement, plus it's free. Who really pays attention to or believes all those adverts floating around your screen or mag. It's just pimping unless it's coming from a satisfied customer with no affiliation(like me). From all these posts and videos(on Epic site) of satisfied people, Dimitri gets it.

He totally gets it, and that's why this will be a big success. He's been working hard at this... look at the demo schedule this year! He's been all over the place. But he's been all over to hear what riders think. Epic will make kites that people want, and follow it up with great service as well. He's always gotten back to me with any question within a day and I've put others in touch with him to ask questions.
Very much looking forward to see how things progress in the months and years to come!

After my first 2 days in Paros having 15kn yesterday and 20+ today people are going crazy on the Epic kites. The performance and construction of the 2011 Epic kites are improved and the new graphics are amazing. I flew back to back the 2010 and 2011 kites and I can say that if you liked the 2010 you will love the 2011 models. Year after year these kites are moving to perfection!!

These kites just rock !
Tried the 9 -12-14 Screamers of 2011 and i can say that these kites really work and react how a good kite should do. All these years i am a Cabrinha fun but now i feel that there is something new and fresh for me out there. For sure i would say that people should try them and then they will understand that these EPIC kites are exactly that most of us are looking for...
Not to mention the new 2011 - 11 renegade that i tried !!!! I just loved this kite. Fast -perfect bar feedback -fast turning and reaction, just perfect !!!

We had a great time down in Paros.I went with my old kites and i didn't use them a friend of mine said to me that he is been in a demo o a different brand but there is no comparing with the demo that EPIC organized..anybody could just grab a kite and go out and not only have a little ride but getting able to feel the kite and say his opinion.He is a rookie but rapidly understood the difference from his kite(like a girl that i taught kite before 3 years)...she came after 2 hours of riding with the 7 SCREAMER and said to me that this is her next kite and it feels much better than the kite she is rididing for 2 years now.Thanks Dimitri for been there giving us your kites no only for test(i gave a hard beating to that 9 RENEGADE ) but for real sessions of kitting!I have to mention that if that 14 SCREAMER wasn't there we wouldn't have fun that light wind days when everybody stood from outside!!!

Was also lucky to try the epic kites down at Pounda - Paros..
to be more specific, I tried the Screamer 10 and 14 and Renegade 9 and 11..
I must say I liked the feeling of the Screamer, the 14m was more responsive than my own (which is a 10m2) very friendly kite as well.
However I fell in love with the Renegade.. Sooo light, so stable and smooth.. Strong yet forgiving..
I am a rookie, yet this kite gave me confidence within the first 10 minutes I was flying it. Made me try stuff I've never tried before and I didn't want to come out of the water.. nor did It ever get me tired.. Renegade, I love you !!
Dimitri thanks for giving us this opportunity!
Planning on getting a Screamer 7 and a Renegade 11 myself this year!
kk thanks!
