Description
The 2007 WAROO Pro
is the most technically advanced, best performing kite ever
made. With a reduced diameter Cuben Fiber leading edge, exclusive
new "Canopy Framing Technology", profile shapers,
surf-proof construction and countless other quality features,
the WAROO PRO is simply the perfect kite.
The WAROO PRO has handling to match its technical excellence,
it delivers more explosive pop and greater hangtime than any
BOW, SLE or C kite, while still delivering maximum depower,
unmatched stability and multiple integrated safety systems.
The WAROO PRO is not just for professional riders; it's for
any rider who can stay upwind, in fact for anyone who wants
to boost higher, hang longer and simply have more fun kiteboarding.
Bests' exclusively designed Cuben Fiber leading edge material
has the bias load handling and torsion distribution abilities
of traditional Cuben Fiber, with the easy handling and abrasion
resistance of Dacron.
Built up into a leading edge, it has enabled BEST to design
a kite with a thinner profile, unmatched aerodynamic efficiency,
pinpoint responsiveness and undreamt of stability. The WAROO
PRO rewrites the rule books of what can be achieved with a
kite.
Canopy Framing Technology
>
Positioned between the canopy and the airframe of the WAROO
PRO, Best have developed a new reinforcement technique called
'Canopy Framing Technology', and it's guaranteed to further
improve our reputation for legendary reliability.
'CFT's' function is two fold, not only does it protect the
entire surface of the kite, between lightweight canopy and
super stiff Cuben Fiber airframe, but it also helps to evenly
distributed flying loads and turning inputs from the control
bar by linking the entire trailing edge to the airframe in
a way that isn't possible with normal point-reinforcing techniques.
Canopy Framing Technology helps to deliver the toughest and
most responsive kite on the market, combine this with the
benefits of our Cuben Fiber leading edge construction and
the new WAROO PRO design has no peers.
Profiles Shapers >
High modulus leading edge 'Profile Shapers', new for 07, add
precision to the shape of the leading edge and canopy curve,
improving efficiency in flight and enhancing stability during
depowered riding. With greater upwind ability, reduced weight
and huge depower range, the new Waroo Pro sets the standard
by which all other kites will be judged.
Any new kite should make you a better rider, you shouldn't
need to be a better rider to get more enjoyment out of a new
kite.
Harmonized ARC >
The new WAROO PRO benefits from our new 'Harmonized Arc' canopy
and LE shaping. Every kite in the range has a unique balance
of control surface and lift surface, giving the optimum blend
of performance and ease of use, whichever size of WAROO PRO
you choose to add to your quiver for 07.
The performance placement strut design of the WAROO PRO helps
to reduce kite weight, making every size more efficient and
easier to fly in lighter winds. Our uniquely optimised under
canopy layout also improves under canopy airflow, reducing
drag and allowing the kite to turn faster with lighter bar
pressure without sacrificing stability or relaunch.
The WAROO PRO has a rear line 'V' that continually distributes
load through the rear attachment points for the most accurate
trimming and positive feedback at all depower angles.
Don't let its 'Pro' tag put you off, the WAROO PRO is aimed
squarely at riders who demand the best from their equipment,
regardless of their kiting experience. The WAROO PRO delivers
on every riders' dreams for 07, it's simply the most flexible
and user friendly kite on the market, suited for all riding
styles, all riding conditions and all riders.
Depower Control Bar

Safety
and Performance Without Sacrifice
The new BEST bar is equipped with almost every safety
feature possible. Multiple dual redundant systems are
used throughout the bar, with riders having the choice,
of punch through 'Maximum depower', fixed front line
leash, multiple rear line 'oh-shit handles', as well
as the usual chicken loop positioned bail out quick
release.
With the New BEST bar your riding should be as a safe
as possible, combined with the WAROO PRO 07 kite, we've
simply not found a better or safer way to progress your
riding whilst hooked into a kite.
Because the BEST doesn't use pulleys on the bar ends
there's one less thing for the rider to worry about,
turning feel is improved and the bar has a much lighter
feel in your hands.
As we've stuck with the tried and tested trim strap
for additional depowering duties, the bar set up will
instantly feel familiar to all riders, with the same
layout at the bar that you've always been used to.
A high-load stainless Ronstan swivel provides for tangle
free rotations and loops, so whether you are heading
towards that first back loop or ready to push hard for
that Mobe 7, you have one less thing to worry about.
For riders pushing the trick envelope we've developed
a new bar end pad set up to spare your thumbs from those
fully laid out unhooked kiteloops, being radical never
felt more comfortable or safe.
All BEST bars come complete
with 25m lines as standard.

Monster Jumps!
Colin Phillips
Despite the windy conditions - I headed out
on the BEST Waroo Pro with a tentative hand on the safety
leash, the kite was launched and coped well with the sometimes
20 knot gusts!
The Waroo Pro just sits there and even after
I let go of the bar - it just goes to the edge of the Wind
Window and just sits on the wingtip - probably not a fair
test as anything will fly in this wind, but pleasantly surprised
with its positive feel through the bar without having too
much bar pressure.
The kite whips about the sky - but thats expected
in these types of winds.
If you want a jump machine - this is the kite!
It was the highest and furthest I have ever jumped. I have
been out in these conditions before but I have never jumped
so high or long.
The build quality is up there with the rest!
The control bar is comfortable with a nice
feel allowing you to know where the kite is all of the time.
I would however have preferred a snap shackle at both ends
on the safety leash as opposed to the wrist leash that is
supplied.
Overall - if you want monster jumps - get
this kite!
