I also like a reminder to unwrap when it binds. Good to know that waiting for a kite is not uncommon. Sounds like it is worth the wait!
-
Just found out that they are having stock issues (sewing sail issues according to the online kite shop) with the Solus and could be a month or two out... maybe. Just have to wait I guess. The mirage line should be alright. (It is spectrum from Prism)
-
I have some 180# 80ft line with my Mirage and is in decent shape. Hopefully that might work...
-
Thanks! Just placed an order. So which one did you go with I bought a Solus and I am really excited to get it up in the air. (I also went with LPG #90 100ft.) Thanks again everyone for the help!

Is there a certain brand/type of line you go with? (Sorry for all the questions, just haven't ordered kite stuff in a long time and not sure what changes have happened) I am used to Spectra... not sure if things have changed.
-
If I go with the Solus, what lines would you suggest... can't seem to find any info.
-
The Solus looks like a great kite and might be what I am looking for. I am pretty sloppy in my inputs though. Might help me to tighten up tricks...
-
Is there any difference in durability of the three? Thanks again for the help! I have been doing a lot of research and will buy soon...

Okay, 5-15 mph sounds like most winds I see. I have flown my Mirage in pretty high winds (up to 50 mph) and you are right. The fun did stop after about 25-30 mph. I have been looking at the QPro, Kymera and Widow Maker, but not sure if there is something else to look at new or used....

I have a Mirage (Now Hypnotist) that I have been flying for the almost the past 10 years and I really like it and have beaten it up practicing freestyle tricks, but I am looking for a new "expert level" kite. I have a 4D and is great for low to no winds, but I want a new kite for the 5-30 mph winds. Needing a durable kite for tricks that can do most freestyle tricks that are thrown at it. I also don't mind spending a decent amount of money to get a great kite that will last. Any suggestions on what to get next?
