The pads look a bit lower, but that might be because of the colors. I also noticed that there is reinforcement on the pad where the screws go. The print of the board looks cool, and everyone loves the transparent topsheet so you can see the woodcore!
I put the Omega wake and Kappa next to each other, the boards have the same length (130?) but the Kappa is slightly wider (39?). The concave looks the same, and the scoop of the Kappa looks a bit flatter. The outline is really square, which looks very nice for wakestyle tricks :). On the water the board immediately has much more grip compared to the Omega Wake.... with smaller fins! It feels great, all of this grip and superb upwind capability. The pop is good, and the landings are easy. I think that is because of the width of the board. Riding and landing blind feels a bit easier on the kappa compared to the wake.
I have tried flat landings from high jumps, and the board did not break ;) (I didn’t expected otherwise) and my ankles and knees are not broken either.
So: The board is strong enough for harsh landings, but it is soft enough to spare your legs.
My girlfriend rode the board too, she didn’t wanted to give it back to me. She thought it was really comfortable to ride, and easy to do freestyle with. She also loved the weight, it made her own board (liquid force aura) feel like it was made of solid concrete (in stiffness and weight). So overall I think the board is very good, it behaves just like you want a freestyle board to behave, but it is very accessible for lower levels of riding too!"
