thebbqguy Posted April 12, 2020 Report Share Posted April 12, 2020 I am looking for ideas for a new single line kite. I have a dual line sport kite, a dual line foil, and a small fighter kite. I am looking for a bigger single line. I am considering a Wala, Premier Delta, or a Levitation Delta. Are there others I should consider that are somewhat similar? I like dual line trick sport kites, but I've never really "caught on" to flying them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTill Posted April 13, 2020 Report Share Posted April 13, 2020 I would suggest a Rok, sled, skyform or the fled. All can be found on Gomberg's website. They have several websites. I have a super sled, amazing deal for the size of the kite. https://www.gombergkites.com/factory.html https://www.gombergkites.com/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebbqguy Posted April 13, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2020 Thanks. My wife was just looking at some line laundry today. They have a few nice kites that support it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebbqguy Posted April 13, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2020 The Super Sled might do it. Just a little higher budget, but from various reviews it's a good candidate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTill Posted April 13, 2020 Report Share Posted April 13, 2020 I need some spikey balls! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebbqguy Posted April 13, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2020 I think the Super Sled with the tail and a spikey ball for line laundry is what I'm looking for, but in the interest of making it more affordable are there line laundry options in the $15 range that I should look at? Also, how can I use it to lift my GoPro? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What line length are you using for the Super Sled? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebbqguy Posted April 13, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2020 My local kite store has some nice affordable spinners that will work. Question about kite line: I have some 120# dacron line leftover from my fishing efforts. Will that work o.k. for kites? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've only purchased tails from Gomberg but the company as a whole has a very positive reputation among kite enthusiasts in general. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I picked up a spool of 300#, but plan on some large laundry and the penant tail. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebbqguy Posted April 14, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2020 Thanks. I decided 120# is probably pushing it with laundry and a tail. I just happened to have a brand new roll of 120#. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
