Spence Watson Posted September 3, 2008 Report Posted September 3, 2008 If you happen to be at Camas indoor in November, I could give you a set. I have an extra set. or you could try the kite shoppe (www.thekiteshoppe.com). That's where I got my extra pair. I got them right when they came out. But I'm not sure if she still has some to sell... but you could try. Quote
John Barresi Posted September 4, 2008 Report Posted September 4, 2008 The weights are 2 grams each. Honestly, if you want to experiment with weights, I'd suggest you try making your own in 2, 4 and 6 grams. You'll find more inertia on spins, axels and flic flacs. Quote
Spence Watson Posted September 4, 2008 Report Posted September 4, 2008 Wen and I were messing around with them at WSIKF. It's amazing how much of a difference they make. Quote
John Barresi Posted September 4, 2008 Report Posted September 4, 2008 FYI, although they're included with the B-Series, iQuad never uses weights. We practice everything on a stock kite, to keep the skills up. When you're learning about the kite however, it's good to try everything. Quote

ant man Posted September 5, 2008 Report Posted September 5, 2008 never used the weights yet .. i dont have any but i was going to try 3 gram fishing snap shots they are long and thin.. i use them for floating striper fish baits Quote
Baloo Posted September 8, 2008 Report Posted September 8, 2008 FYI, although they're included with the B-Series, iQuad never uses weights. OK so now I know where I am going wrong. I often wait, sometimes for more wind, sometimes for less wind. Often just till I just feel like it. Always a wait. So iQuad never wait. I will have to try that one. Got to improve my flying. Quote
Stix Posted September 30, 2008 Author Report Posted September 30, 2008 Thanks for all of these tips. This really helps!!!!!!! Quote
