  1. They don't come out until May! I hate waiting. There are some sweet looking new prism kites coming and super reasonable price too.
  2. Probably not a better starter kite out there for the price. A lot of people make the mistake of getting a smaller cheaper stint kite and get something that's to fast to fully enjoy. Quantum is a large full size kite. That flys great. Make sure to post pictures or it never happened.
  3. Some one wake up John. Let's get this party started I need another hq in my closet.
  4. I can always use a new dually and I love the grew fade.
  5. That's going to be slick!
  6. What are some of the indoor kite you have seen Wayne. I'm out of the loop. Haven't ever had a place to fly indoors.
  7. What's in the pm Wayne? Secrets?
  8. i need to put some stoppers on my stack of avengers. see you next weekend.
  9. Nice. It's fun, fast, loud and flys super straight.
  10. Oh good questions. First one I don't know. About an indoor kite. Indoor kites do better indoor. 0 wind kites usually are super low wind and will also work indoor. Indoors are really meant for indoors. A gust out of no where could damage an indoor kite. Not to say we haven't all flown our indoor kites out side. Indoor quad really you best option is a rev. If you can find a synergy deca they are the nicest quad I have seen but are no longer made and harder to fly. Indoor rev is usually what people get as it's the only one made at the moment I believe. A stunt kite can be used of any kite that can be maneuvered really. Quad or dual line, indoor and out. And sport kite and stunt kite I have both heard for different reasons. Rev is often used to describe any quad line kite like chap stick it's a brand but used wrong a lot. It's usually just dual or quad but fighter kites are in there as well and probably take the highest skill.
  11. so when i fly my silver fox UL 2.3 on the blue beads i cant pop an axle. but on the red beads i can. on this kite its either a 3 point bridle or a turbo bridle depending on what color bead you pick but it doesnt say which is which. it would be nice to know which one i like better and maybe why. but why is less important.
  12. Gotcha. I have heard of both and wasn't sure which ones were the same. I look at his diagrams and they look the same
  13. Ohh man there are now way to many bridles! Non of the ones on Andy's site were a turbo or reverse turbo bridle. So there seems to be about 10 basic common bridles and they are all a matter of feel to the person and to the kite. So that said I should try all ten on each kite I own to know what I like.
  14. So i have a lot of dual line and most all have a little different bridle. i dont know the names and what they all mean. turbo bridle, reverse turbo bridle, whats the difference. i have a bead bridle system on my silver fox and its a knock of nirvana. the guy i was flying with yesterday made the same bridle that is on his nirvana and put it on his silver fox. the sea devil is the exact same as the nirvana as well what bridle does it have. is there any benefit to a fancy bridle over a basic 3 point bridle for an older kite that wont see any slack in its lines? cheers
  15. It's why I only fly pretty kites.
  16. I love this conversation!
  17. That's the weatherflow wind meter and app. For a wind weather app I use WindAlert and it's my favorite for sure.
  18. By far the cheapest accurate wind meter out. It's fun to use. I usually never use a wind meter as numbers don't seem to do as much a feeling it on the back of my neck. But for a specific number it's right on with anything else I have scene or used.
  19. yeah i have been looking into a ultrafoil 15. i have flown with the 10 for kat in higher winds. but for lower winds i think i need the ultrafoil 15.
  20. Well if you have a Wm you really have the last kite you will ever need. But we are kite people and don't have what we need we have what we want! The kymer is a different beast loud and demands attention in the sky. Love the kymera!
  21. The quantum is a nice flying kite. And the quantum pro even better. There was a kite flying team that won worlds with there quantum pro. It's a whole new beast. The quantum is a big slow kite and being so is easier to fly. And it'll do every trick in the book. It's a good kite that can grow with your kite skill.
  22. Ohh buddy! Welcome to the world of fix and fly! I have been flying for 20 plus years and I head to the local kite shop on a regular bases! That's a big rip. smaller rips just need some tape. You learn fast due to cost repairs, spars are fairly cheep and any real kite store can fix you right up cheers mate!
