I believe the trade was excellent. If you look at my collection, I am more old school. I picked up the Zephyr (and a Acrobatx) for a great price.
The Zephyr is a great kite, I only flew it twice, the first flight the center T broke while making a ground pass, (Prism replaced it quickly). The second time I tested the repair and was impressed with the tracking and pull. Since I am not into "slack line tricks" the kite is similar to others I own. For light wind I usually pull out my Griffin stack.
