New set up for beginner

soccerflyer - 7-7-2009 at 02:58 PM

Hey! I have a freind that is looking to get into the sport. I think he should start out with a 3-4 metre beginners level 4 line kite. Something like a Pansh Blaze or Beamer. He will need it to be flight ready. He will want the kite, lines, handles, bag, stake, and kite killers.

He is probably looking for something lightly used, but in great condition. Something affordable. Around $150-200.

He lives in Charleston, SC. Any ideas?

Not sure if Arkay ever sold his Beamer 3.6, but it was $160 with bag, kite, handles, lines

It's here:

Not sure about killers.... no, stake. However, Angus is just a stones throw away. Adding the stake and killers would probably put it right at the $200 mark, depending on shipping and such.

Thanks Indigo! I actually saw that thread and already sent him a U2U. If he still has it that might be the one!

I found a brand new Beamer III 4M ready to fly with kite killers, bag, and stake for $210. I have also been advised to look for a PL hornet.
