Performance Posted September 8, 2007 Report Posted September 8, 2007 I found one in my house that's been sitting there for ages. It sat under the stairs for at lease 10 years. Today I decided to try it out. It was nice, not as floaty as "modern" ultra light kites, but sure was close. The kite didn't take any effort to get up and it stayed up even with the winds we had (probably 4 mph and lower) I sure had a crowed today and got many people interested in kites I had people asking questions like "whats a great beginner kite" and other questions. I may make a new sail for it. we will have to see. Quote
DaveH Posted September 8, 2007 Report Posted September 8, 2007 Very Cool! I have a couple of Hawiian Team kites and used to fly my friend's standard Spinoff. Really fun kites! I didn't know Don ever released an ultralie version. What's it framed in? If I recall, Beaman was prety popular back then, and the Advantage wrapped spars Revs used. Of course, this is 20 year old memory talking so I could be way off. Nice to read of your success with the Spinoff! Dave Quote
