  1. +1 on the Sportbrella. I would buy afew more longer thicker stakes like cheapo aluminum for when you use it standing up.ALSO a hose clamp and cheapo screw driver to hold the clamp in middle of post. There are six total anchor points including the wings which i used to anchor it on the Marina Green this last Saturday (90 degrees and a hot azz breeze--had touse all my zero wind and SUL kites with that hot breeze!!!

    Too often I see people chasing equipment in favor of not developing technique - not a useful practice unless you have deep pockets! Yes, the diamond frame is meant for light winds, got one myself in an SUL. but not in my Zen! Relatively, not a whole lot gained by weight loss. But if you know how to use it - another story!

    Chasing equipment ! ? Guilty as Charged!

    I ended up buying Skyshark2 p400 to mimic  a SLE LE plus uprights.. has more give but still more lively than stock parts. pick a super glue that gives 15 seconds before it sets up solid. lolz

    I know a very experienced flier that ONLY uses 3 wrap frames in EVERYTHING he flies - doesn't seem to hinder him. My point: it's not necessarily all about the equipment! 

    PS: the offer of the P-90 frame would be a great choice!

     

  3. Bring a small bottle of water with you . Round bottle works best. Put it on the bottom inside of the kite before u go back to ur Stake. Thats my standard op procedure.

    Have fun. Welcome to the addiction
