There will be few surpluses and mega-closeout deals in 2023. They are running as lean as possible and only making a small percentage of product above pre-season orders from dealers. What that means to you is it will be hard to get the color you want in the size you want, when you want it. Plan accordingly or buy the 2022 deals still available.        "The MotoX is one of those kites you need to feel for yourself. It has the smooth feel of the Switchblade but a very different feel in the bar and on a different level speed wise. It pulls hard but really drives upwind, it also drives through a loop really well. I normally wouldn't consider a kiteloop on a 12m but had nearly no issues with the kite coming around and catching me, which was pretty nuts for a 12m... I suspect the smaller sizes will be good for double loops as the kite is so fast. Too fast for an unhooking freestyle kite in the smaller sizes I imagine, but I think this is what makes it shine for big air/looping especially in the larger sizes, and will also allow it to work really well in the waves. Between the light feel in the bar and sky, but while being super powerful and quick to turn I think it is pretty much exactly what I'd hope to feel in a fast yet boosty 3 strut kite. Normally I'd never give up my 8 and 9m Switchblade in the quiver, but I think times may be changing....This is a totally new Moto, not just a refined version of the previous model." - Evan Netsch LITE FRAME The Lite Frame has the benefits of the proven HTD Lite Dacron along with a refined canopy design to provide the lightest most reactive kites to date.
