big session in Rosebud. Great location for NW breaze but this is on the lighter side.
First the Kite- new Mono 12m...what a difference ..so easy to pump and the standard north pump works without any stupid adapters, one strut makes it so easy to pump even a 12 m..so what are the pluses and minuses

Plus
- easy pumping
- light
- low end
- Light wind
- depower
minus
- flutter like crazy
- self launching needs bit more angle to get the kite filled in
Verdict
Great kite for lighter days and 12 and above batter choice than Neo?
Now getting on the board
failed on getting technique nailed
- board too square to wind
- not enough pressure on back foot
- shoulders too far back
- kite goes to opposite side
Key takes for next session
- Roll on to the board with shoulders forward
- pressure on back foot and point board downwind
- get kite back to 10-11 rather than 12
