recently bought a 10.5 Blade III depower kite from kitedog and had a chance to take it out for a ride today. Wind was so so but enough to get a whole
new outlook on the power these kites can produce.
oh yeah, one word to describe the pull from the kite, AWESOME
I didn't have a harness so manually depowering with one hand while steering with the other was challenging
pics below nothing to fancy just showing its new home.

Get a harness for the full effect. If you need a harness, I have several for sale.
Glad to see it in the air!

Sinclair: Where in chicago do you usually fly?
Kitedog: What kinds of harnesses?
kitedog - 21-11-2009 at 06:01 AM
I sold the Prolimit waist harness. I still have the Dakine Fusion with spreader pad and pivoting bar for sale. Van is trying to buy it but its still
available until someone makes a commitment. The Mammut climbing harness and custom Wichard and Holt Pulley block are still available as well.

Jolt fly at montrose beach
kitedog what size is the fusion? looking for 34" waist
kitedog - 22-11-2009 at 05:06 PM
The large Dakine Fusion harness should fit from 34 to 36 inch waists. It also includes a Dakine bar pad and pivoting spreader bar. There's also a
line knife. Let me know if you want it and I'll send it out tomorrow.
