cjay Posted March 7, 2023 Report Share Posted March 7, 2023 Just wondered if anyone has tried a Widow pro classic or Widow pro classic UL, and what they thought about the flight characteristics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cjay Posted March 23, 2023 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2023 I am debating between the ul and the standard. Not alot of info out there about how it flies compared to the Widow NG. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthewk Posted May 31, 2023 Report Share Posted May 31, 2023 Did you ever get the Pro Classic? Seems like the Widow NG is pretty popular but is a few years older and hard to find in stock, but I couldn't find much info on the Pro Classic.

cjay Posted June 17, 2023 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2023 No I haven't bought one yet. I was concerned about the flight characteristics because the person who helped design the upgrades is pretty much a dedicated freestyle flier, and I am not. I prefer directional flying. I still might buy one though because I like the purple color, plus it has a polyester sail and is supposedly the same shape as the NG, so if I don't like the way it flies compared to the NG, I could probably put an NG bridle on it. I did buy an extra yellow Widow NG though since they are being discontinued and I like mine, and continue to use it and abuse it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NojRemmah Posted July 20, 2023 Report Share Posted July 20, 2023 I've got an STD Limited Edition coming that should arrive tomorrow! Couldn't stand the itch any longer waiting for my back-ordered Skydog Dream On so landed on this. Only problem is it'll be my first kite so probably can't help answer any questions. I'll be happy if I get her in the air on Sunday! From Kent at AWOC : Quote ...The Widow Pro, IMO, is one of the best tricking kites on the market but it is also exceptionally forgiving. It is excellent for learning on because it recovers easily and the smoothness of flight gives the pilot very good feedback through the lines so you always know what the kite is doing. It is my favorite kite and we have had many first time pilots fly it with great results. It is also the one i suggest fir anyone wanting to get into more advanced tricks. He also mentioned 5-10 mph is best for STD. UL is better situated from 2-6 mph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
