2007 Naish Torch Review
The 2007 Naish Torch 12m Kite
Up Close and Personal
by Skip Schott
07 Torch 12 meter ready to go
New kite and bar bag
The new chicken loop comes with an integrated finger...
...it works great for unhooked moves.
Beefed up metal buckle on the adjustment strap
A great idea in 05 is continued in 06 - a flared center hole on the bar to allow the chicken loop to return to the proper 'hook in' angle

The wingtips have been beefed up with Aramide reinforcements.

It flies great - thanks again Joe B!
