Most notable are better low end and slightly faster turning, along with some minor refinements to the bar which includes a steel post around the depower rope (which prevents chafing on your knuckles), and a very neat kite briefcase. Other improvements include enforced strut closures, reinforced struts, and easy-off pigtails which makes removing your kite lines easier. All these improvements together with the one pump system (a single inflation system) makes the kite a good package.
