bgywrinkle Posted January 12, 2006 Report Posted January 12, 2006 I'm in love with the decas, would like to find intact or damaged deca 6s and indoor variety as well as small version the "Minergy." Hope someone has somthing. email me at: bgywrinkle@comcast.net Regards, Don Quote
Penny Lingenfelter Posted January 18, 2006 Report Posted January 18, 2006 Did you get a response? It's been my understanding they could be hard to get parts for. Hope your finding what you need. BB Penny Quote
bgywrinkle Posted January 18, 2006 Author Report Posted January 18, 2006 Penny, Thanks for the reply, I' ve had a few responses from another forum but no one with 6s (indoor or outdoor) that wants to part with them, broken or whole. The minis seem to be held onto very closely. I saw one fly in Lynn MA on the 7th and was intrigued by by it(read that as "lusted for it"). The indoor 6s with tapered graphite spars will be a challenge for parts, but I think doable. Eventually I'll find an owner who will reluctantly give their kites a new home. Regards, Don Quote
kite.flyer Posted January 18, 2006 Report Posted January 18, 2006 Eventually I'll find an owner who will reluctantly give their kites a new home.Regards, Don Hi, Don, Reluctant is a key word. These things are almost like hockey tickets in Toronto - you've got to inherit them because they rarely show up for sale. And when they do show up, they can be pricey. Last year a friend stumbled across one for sale and he and I bought up the whole collection. Some folks never click with them, others prefer the Revs, some folks just want one to fly occasionally or just to "have" and others need to have 'em all and fly them frequently. They are a challenge to fly and can be a little finicky but fun when you get it just right. And they are beautiful to behold. You could also ask Marc at Guildworks to build you one. Good luck in your search. Marty G. Wings Across Carolina Kiting and Okra Society, Quote
