Eclipse is a new brand in 07' receiving a huge attention worldwide.
THRUSTER is one of the best performance hybrid kites in the market. It's a much faster kite than my previous bow kites, tighter arc in turning, concise bridle design, and very easy to relaunch or self-launching on the beach. The EZ Lock bar system is an very unique and smart design. The power/depower straps are easy to reach. The flying lines are super thin and 100% non-stretchable (made from Euro cord at Holland), this enhances additionally to its quick response. And from now (May 07) on, a pack of "KiteFix" is included in any complete set! Check what others say in KITEFORUM: Thruster12m, Thruster 14m (a) , Thruster 14m (b) , Thruster 16m.

Highly recommended all-round board!
ALL SKYWALKER KITEBOARDS ARE MADE IN POLAND!
Pro 135x48
Best suitable for HK summer as the SW/S/SE wind is usually light! It is surprisingly easy in doing tricks. As being short is an advantage for spinning/ looping, and being wide is for better landing (& upwind too)! Check Kiteforum

TAKOON is actually one of the first Bow Kite brands, from France. Takoon is at the top of the list in the original bowkite designer's site.
The reason I choose eNOVA here as it's an very easy handling kite with total depower ability. Especially good for beginners to cope with the gusty condition like HK.
Sutra ia a high performance board made in Austria. Its thin & square rails makes it as an very edgy board. And it's high rocker design passes the chops comfortably! "It's now my most favourite board for moderate-strong wind!"
