The widow ng sure looks great! Sadly $190 US is out of my price range but im liking the look of premier kites! I saw a Video of the addiction that seemed to show it as a pretty capable kite at a good price! Now to try and compare it to the quantum

Thanks! If buy new (from Kiteland.ca which is local) I was thinking of getting the HQ limbo, or the Salsa ii which come with dyneema lines. My other option was the Quantum which comes with spectra. It looks like they have spectra lines in stock if I do find a used kite. Just got back from the point, not enough wind to get off the ground but pretty day at least!

Thanks for the encouragement and tips! There is a promise of ok wind at a grassy point near the house today so I'll take it out there this afternoon. I still don't have much luck tricking it out on longer lines without feeling like the kite gets sluggish in responding though! That little kite is holding up well for having taught my whole house (5 of us) to fly from 0 experience! Sure surprised me!

Hi! I've been learning the basics of dulies on a $20 Amazon kite (here, silly video and I'm not doing any tricks but at least you can see the kite!). It was a great purchase and I'm now totally hooked on flying. I can usually side and snap stall and axel it and I am pretty sure I'm at the point where I'm not going to immediately trash a proper stunt kite, and would love to upgrade. I'm on a pretty darn right budget at the moment though. I think I can squeeze some more experience out of this kite (I can get it on its back so maybe a lazy Susan or something). However, if anyone has a step up for (ideally) less than $100 CAD (I am in Victoria , BC) I'd love the chance to try a previously loved kite I've don't tonnes of research on kites but haven't flown any OPKs so it is hard to compare proper stunt kites to this little one. As long as the kite isn't too huge I'm sure I'll love it to death! Thanks for reading! Chris
