John Barresi Posted March 23, 2009 Report Posted March 23, 2009 Wood frames, or fiberglass, or carbon? How many kites in the stack? Are these Hyper Pluses, Hyper Cruisers, or... ? I've got an old 12-stack of carbon framed Hyper Pluses myself, got it from Randy back in '93. Quote

John Barresi Posted March 24, 2009 Report Posted March 24, 2009 Here are a couple of places you might be able to sell them... GWTW Swap Meet http://www.gwtwforum.com/index.php?board=28.0 GWTW Swap Meet Readme http://www.gwtwforum.com/index.php?board=27.0 Or... http://www.kite-classifieds.com Those are more likely to generate educated interest than eBay or Craigslist, since you'll be showing the kites to fliers.

CLTKiter Posted April 10, 2009 Report Posted April 10, 2009 The kites in the picture are of my original 6-stack of HyperKites. I bought them about 10 years ago in Atlantic Beach, NC. The condo in the background is one where we have a timeshare. These particular HyperKites have carbon fiber frames. I've since grown the stack to a 9-stack. Doug Quote
