Naish Torch 3 met double depower.
Google maar eens op 'double depower' dankom je vanzelf een aantal reviews tegen.
supersnel en onwijze depower. Iets minder dan een echte bow maar vliegt als een C.
Uit de een test is gebleken dat de double depower van Naish nog altijd minder is dan de standaard de-power van de Rival van F-one en ook die heeft nog niet het de-power bereik van een BOW..
Ps ik vond dit ook wel een interesant stuk wat goed bij het onderwerp aansluit: "--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I've ridden both. Why would you compare these two?
One is a bow and the other a C. Very different kites.
The SB2 is very nice, but it's still a bow, so turning feel and response is different. Not a bad feeling, just different. If you are willing to compromise just a little on handling, the SB2 is sweet.
If you are not willing to compromise then the V7 is the choice. A pure C kite with bow depower.
It's all about feel, so you really need to try them to know where you stand.
Perhaps a better way to say it is that if you are willing to learn and try something new, something with an inherent inbuilt safety margin, that C shaped kites never had, then try a genuine, Legainoux design based, bow kite.
And you can learn to do any of the currently popular tricks or styles with them.
If you are unwilling to accept new things, re-learn some stuff you are already good at on your C kite, then stick with what you have.
This bullshit about compromise, is a crock, marketing drool at its worst. New machine, means new feeling, you adapt, if you are adpatable.
If you are not, stick with the ordinary old stuff.

Its not a pure C kite!
Pure C kites suck, they have almost no depower and limited windrange!!!
V07 is a high depower hybrid, that you guys are marketing as a "pure C", but it most definitely is not that.
Keep it real, its a new gen kite.

I agree, only major differences between C's and Bows is different feel (you can get used to it), slight slower turning speed (try the 07 bows and you'll see that most are pretty fast so its not a big gap) and you need to learn how to jump differently. All of those 3 take all of 10 sessions till you can work the way you did before. If you went to a different brand of C's with a different feel you'd have the same issue. Bows are definitely 10 times more forgiving for the average rider.
