JN WildThing 14: how does it handle gusts?

[mfroster]

sorry to write again in english due to my poor german written capabilities...

so my question is, 1) does the Wildthing 14m2 handle gusts nicely (any jellyfishing/wobbling)?

2) how much bar pressure does it have?

3) is it a strong kite?

MfG,
Markus

Hi Markus,
i have the JN WildThing 14 since 2 Month, but could only use it twice. It handle gusts ok, not really perfekt. By the way, i live in a region where it is very gusty! The bar pressure is great, nearly none! I use the Kite with a 45cm bar and love it!
Is it a strog kite? Well its not a grunt kite, but it jumps very well and high. I also have an 2003 GXR in 14 and the JN jumps higher and longer. But the best thing in my opinion ist the turning speed. All togheter i´m really satisfied with the kite.
hope i could help

thanks Mark

this sure helped, but could specify on how's the JN not perfect for handling gusts?
Do you feel gusts too clearly on the bar and does the kite change the shape when the gust comes?

thank you very much
Markus
