Liquid Force NRG Tech Specs:
Bar size recommendations:
- 6m & 8m = 45cm control bar
- 10m = 50cm control bar
- 12m = 55cm control bar

Who is it for?
Anyone and everyone. This kite works really well for riding waves, boosting, cruising, learning new tricks…. The list goes on.

What kind of conditions is it best suited for?
All wind conditions, particularly suited to gusty conditions due to the large wind range.

How is it different to the Envy?
The NRG is flatter than the envy and sits closer to the edge of the wind window. This improves upwind performance, wind range and grunt. The Envy creates better pop for unhooked freestyle tricks because it sits deeper in the wind window. Freestyle bandits should definitely have a good look at the LF Envy or the Nirvana.

How well are the kites built?
Liquid force has an excellent reputation for build quality and their kites always feel solid.

How easy it to use?
The max flow inflation system makes it easy and quick to inflate and the ability to turn the power off and on makes the kite feel really safe. This kite is a breeze to fly straight out of the box, no complicated set up is required.

What is the bar like?
The Liquid Force CPR bar is tried and tested. We really like the clean depower system and comfortable grip. Click here to read more about the CPR bar. The CPR bar comes in 45 or 50cm and has 23m lines as standard.

We Really Like: This kite soars upwind so well. If you are riding in the waves or learning new tricks, it makes a big difference to be able to stay upwind so easily. The hangtime is also a blast when boosting on the smaller sizes!
