"When one woman was asked how long she had been going to symphony concerts, she paused to calculate and replied, 'Forty-seven years - and I find I mind it less and less." --Louise Andrews Kent Considering your kiting history as I discern from http://kitelife.com/forum/topic/7257-emoji107/?do=findComment&comment=58752 , the step to a 4D is not a small step. After I bought this kite model last summer it took me about 3/4 of year to start kind of liking this kite (OK, the time with this particular kite did by no means dominate over others). Frame mass has been much important to suit my flying style, which this kite got very little of. However I find this kite a good trainer for going in the direction of smaller inputs. I can understand your sense of responsibility having won the 4D in a Karma drawing - the kite should come to use. What I try to say is - patience. If you have decided to do duals (trick/precision?) as well, perhaps getting a larger kite with a heavier frame would be a good start (as you suggested?), but not necessarily the end. My least used kite is a HQ City session bought a long time ago (also with a light frame - used two times perhaps): http://www.kitepower.com/reviews/citysessionreview.html . Today (well not literally), 17 years later, I'm going to see how I'll find it. 1
Mikelp3586 Posted September 5, 2016 Author Report Posted September 5, 2016 Exult I understand what your saying..... I think I'd be a lot happier flying a heavier frame than this is all. I like to fly in wind and feel the tension is who I like to fly. Maybe if I spent a summer with it I would not feel the same way but I don't get much time as it is and would just like to be able to throw something up and enjoy......Sent from my iPhone using KiteLife mobile app

reefaddicted Posted September 5, 2016 Report Posted September 5, 2016 If I had a trade for the 4d I would lol and even I would have to get used to it very small inputs for sureSent from my iPhone using KiteLife mobile app
Mikelp3586 Posted September 7, 2016 Author Report Posted September 7, 2016 So tad bit of info on this kite. This is the Berkeley custom 4d. It is signed by prism designers and owner also numbered. I didn't even know this until stumbling upon this, not sure what difference it makes but for anyone that is a prism fan would be cool piece to have! I'll put up some pics later Sent from my iPhone using KiteLife mobile app 1
