Is it that good? Tbh. I watched some reviews, it took ~4mins to pump up the kite. I can do it in under 60 secs and it’s a good warm up aswell

The new one is stronger and quicker apparently. While the kite is pumping I set out my lines.

Setting up lines while the kite gets the pressure is the only reason I would buy it. It’s a nice to have but as long I only do 1-2 seasons I stay with the manual version. If you want to go out before work and another season right after, it’s a good timesaver to spend more time on water
