redroversquared Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 Hi there. First-time poster; brand-new reader here. I'm looking for a kite. All I know about it is: 1) It's called the Firestone. 2) It's 127 inches wide. 3) It MIGHT be a stunt kite. Preliminary Google searches haven't yielded a hit. Thanks in advance for any leads!

Wayne Dowler Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 Sure that is how it is named? Maybe Firestorm? Haven't Googled it to make sure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redroversquared Posted July 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 You nailed it, Wayne. The (defunct) Firestorm by New Tech. Thank you! The fella who told me about it had a very thick accent and I'd misunderstood. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
makatakam Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 Yeah, it's a big boy. Saw one at a festival somewhere a few years ago. Impressive presence on the field. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amexpmh Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 RobB just mentioned one of these in the thread WTB. Also I cannot imagine anyone using stone in a name of a kite. :-) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murph Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 You can make out the name on the kite left 'Firestorm' ...middle is a 'Mamba' and right is 'Thor's Hammer' Photo credit to John Chilese Hope thats of some help. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobB Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 The Firestorm is one of my favorite kites ! It can fly in 2-10mph wind, anything higher than that will break it. Ask how I know that... There was a blue one for sale recently, but I think it sold. They come up for sale every once in a while. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
