While the Best Kiteboarding Nemesis HP lives for huge jumps and big surf rides, this kite excels on land and snow as well. For ’09, Best Kiteboarding gave the Nemesis Kevlar strips in the leading edge for quick kite response to your twisting motions during steering (think fast turns even in light wind). A Cuben Equipped LE design thins the leading edge to help with upwind performance, jumping, and hangtime performance. Best Kiteboarding knows you’ll crash your kite, so it reinforced the entire perimeter which isolates the canopy from impact and distributes the blow. A VP2 bridal system provides a 2:1 depower to bar-travel ratio.
I used to shop for snow specific snowkites on this website but now I can not find any. I live in Utah and only kite on the snow so I would like something easy and simple to use. Only inflatables used for water are shown and also the product is on the low end of the quality scale, can someone please point me in the right direction?
A friend of mine has the Nemi 09 and has had a hard time getting in to relaunch on the water. If a kite won't launch on water it is twice as hard to use on snow. The kite jumps good, but if he doesn't stick the landing he'll crash the kite and ends up swimming in half the time. It is an advanced kite that is not easy for average riding... I'm sure the pros like the performance and can deal with those issues better... but I don't know any pros that fly generic brand kites like best.
