Old Unflown Shanti Kites

Hi all! I've been out of town for work and haven't gotten to fly for a bit. I did however make it to my parents place where 2 used kites were waiting for me. They got them (plus a large single line delta) off Craigslist. There person they bought them from got these kits for his kids in the 90s but never flew the dual lines.

Thanks to the instructions I know the large one is a Shanti allegro, framed in high modulus carbon. One part of the bridle came untied but I think I can fix that. The kite has these wing battens which are new to me too.

The other is also a Shanti, and looks real nice, but I can't for the life of me find the model.

There kites came with lines, one set of Shanti Zip #150 lines and one set labled 90' #150 "comp" which I'm pretty sure is their speed line?

Anywho, I'm just looking for info and maybe tips on these kites before I take them up :) I've included some pics and can take more when I get back from work today.

Thanks!
