In its first year, the Razor established itself as the leader in the new school C-kite movement. As a dedicated 5-line kite, the Razor draws C-kite enthusiasts, freestyle fanatics, and wave purists with its high-end performance. The Razor has left its mark on the World Tour, with a World Championship title to its name, and has become the benchmark from which all other C-kites are judged. Developed with the help of our pro freestyle team members, Gisela Pulido and Alex Pastor, the 2012 Razor captures traditional C-kite power delivery in a high-performance, new school, 5 line C-kite. This year, the Razor exceeds expectations as the kite created and chosen by champions, delivering the highest level of performance within the reach of intermediate riders.

I bought my very first Airush Razor today, and what a great kite it is so far, the best c-kite i've used and i,ve used lots.
HOW IT FLYS - The kite is a fairly slow moving kite which is great for my old school freestlye tricks and surface handle passes, i also thought the hang time and lift was great too. The bar presure is about light to moderate, but you can change this to a heavy setting if you like, i found on the normal setting you could feel where your kite was all the time even when doing triple back rolls and surface handle passes. The relunch was very good to, i connected the 5th line bridle to the middle connection points on the leading edge this resulted in excellent relunch, normaly c-kites are a bit tricky to get up off the water, but this kite makes relunching so much easyer its awesum. Oh and the depower is great too like all kites.
THE BAR - The bar is awesum, very well made, and simple. On the depower rope its covered with plastic tubing which is great for me, cause i tend to hold the bar in the middle when i,m doing all my tricks, the plastic tubing prevents the rope from rubbing againt you fingers. Just above the chicken loop is a black swivel to untangle your centre lines, theres not many bars on the market that have that swivel that close to chicken loop, i thought it was great to have the swivel so close to the bar, normaly on most bars you have to reach out past the depower straps to untangle the centre lines and what a pain that is. The saftey is realy good too, its simply,easy to use and works well. And also the bar has o**** loops on both sides of the bar. All in all i thought the bar was great, it was well made and very simple and safe. Whoops i nearly forgot, you can also shorten the bar, this is standard on all bars.
