Blue Moon looks like a Mantis

thanks cerfvoliste

i found some specs  for the Mantis on the web that match my quick measurements of the kite, also read several positive reviews...unless Ken made other models with the same  measurementts as the mantis, then i guess a mantis it is.

hopefully the Level One will be as easy

Definitely a Mantis. 

Check the tail strap on the back side of the spine for more identifying information. 

Mine is a UL. Black Diamond 3pt lower spreaders, P200 spine, P100 lower leading edge. Sorry, don't want to de-spar the kite to see what the upper leading edge is, but that should be enough to figure out if you have a UL or standard.

Wow!!! Nice score and id's of the kites.

I have a red/grey/black Mantis (among many BMK's.!!!)

The sail can have a 3D effect in the air.

The Genesis is a great kite as well.  Nice snag.

thanks dragonfish, i didnt look under the tail strap, the lower spreaders are 5pt 

thanks mebeatee and jaydub200, this forum is a great resource
