So you are looking for nirvana's for the world cup. are you not going to use the genesis for the wc? and if so why not?

yes the vanas are indeed for the fwc...

First let me start by saying that my not using the Genesis is not a reflection of its ability as a kite...

There are several reasons the main one being my workload has just doubled, i may at the drop of a hat have to put in full weekend shifts if casework arrises, this means that i cannot offer the kind of commitment Level one and Go kites deserve from a sponsored flyer at this moment in time...

A function of the above is that the genesis, whilst having a french look about it feels very very different much smaller inputs, more oversteer different timing... in short it would take me along time to really get in tune with the Genesis from where i am now, unfortunately with the FWc looming i dont haver that sort of time.

so with this in mind i have bowed out of the sponsorship deal with L1 and gokites

Thanks for that, would you say that the genesis is closer to like say the gemini in inputs or more like the stx?

I would say it is somwhere between the 2 ... the precision can be bridled into it but it did lose other qualities
