Hi, as i have a found a job now I have been looking at different kites and have been interested in power kite. I was looking at some bit dual lines like the hq cougar but was wondering what someone would recommend.

what are you wanting to do with the power kite? buggie, jump, static fly ????
I would suggest qaud-line either way!!
are you on a tight budget?
the more info you give ...........the better, response you will get!!

Im on a tight budget and was looking to just really fly it on the beach and feel it drag me around. Thats why a big dual line i thought would appeal to me.

I would recommend something like the Peter Lynn Vibe. This kite is pretty inexpensive and will drag you all over the place. It will have much more power than the framed stunt kites, even the very large ones.

That looks like a really cool kite! Do you think the 2.6 would be the best size as i way 218 lbs. I was also looking at maybe trying to fly with my skis in the winter

For winter use on ski's, I would recommend the larger sizes for sure. The 2.6 would be a great size to play and learn with and when the winds are stronger, you could use it on ski's in the winter. It would be a great starter kite but you would probably want to move to a quad line power kite in the future as they have much better control and better power delivery.
