Description: EH Ripper - you either love it or hate it. EH Ripper is a kite spoken for its performance. EH Ripper is definitely a great kite, but probably not a beginners kite...

If the Ovando look like a little fighter jet in the air, it also feels like one. It´s got very urgent handling and it really darts in the sky!
Bar and set up: The unique shape of the Ovando is obvious when you lay it out. It has a fairly straight trailing edge but swept back wingtips and the leading edge meets to a point in the middle. It does look more like a delta wing aircraft rather than a Delta kite and there is no other kite like it on the market. The build and finish will be familiar to EH riders: strong, unsleeved leading edge bridle, industrial strength, wear patches on the main tube, and an overall air of ruggedness rather than luxuriant
The Ovando on the water: If the Ovando looks like a little fighter jet in the sky, it also feels like one. It has very urgent handling and it darts around the sky and there is a very direct connection between the bar and kite: you pull or push and the kite turns. There is a nice tension to the bar, and the steering is light, urging you to throw the kite around. When you do, it picks up speed quickly and gets you trucking along superfast in no time. The Ovando has real throw around potential for shredding up
