jamesy Posted September 18, 2018 Report Share Posted September 18, 2018 So i ended up ordering the big buzz flexifoil for my first kite. I was concerned about the material of the lines (dyneema?), so I called flexifoil last week and spoke with someone who told me it was dyneema that has been pre-stretched. This surprised me as I have read a few people here on the forums who were unsure of its makeup. Anyone have any comments here? Now im waiting on it to arrive. I'm hoping that in low wind times it will be flyable by my Son. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riffclown Posted September 18, 2018 Report Share Posted September 18, 2018 No concerns.. That is a common line material for sport foils. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greesmunky Posted September 18, 2018 Report Share Posted September 18, 2018 I ordered one in July, its a damn fun kite. great quality construction, and easy to fly in moderate winds. You'll have fun with it and the feeling it gives in a full speed pass across the power zone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobB Posted September 19, 2018 Report Share Posted September 19, 2018 Lines for foils aren't as critical as framed sportkites. Just check them for being even every few outings, they should be fine. I've flown my foils with lines that were 6" different from the left and right and it wasn't too bad. I would never tolerate that with my framed sportkites, though... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
