For a many years now I have enjoyed dual line stunt kites and now feel that I'd like to move on to Power Kiting. I am 15 years old but 5' 10 " tall
and my arms can handle a fair amount of pull so I'd like a kite that can administer a good pull, and be quite a challenge as I become more
experienced. My budget could stretch up to about £160 although due to a bit of income problems, I cannot move up a model in, for example, 6 months
time. Therefore I need a lasting kite. Any advice? :puzzled:

my first kite was a 3m buster from pkd, about £130 from tradewinds, ready to fly. as for up-grading in six months,i would not part with this kite for
£150 now!!
having recently flown a 2.5 ozone frienzy, i would recommend one of those as well, prob in your price range
a warning tho, stay away from argos

ps, bear in mind that the season is changing shortly, don't be tempted by anthing bigger than 3m or you will be sat indoors waiting for calmer wind!!
p.ps flexifoil bullets are also great

ok, thanks for the advice. I shall have a look at these kites and browse the internet for more now I have a better idea what I should be looking for.
Luckily though theres very little wind in Ipswich and not really much in Felixstowe, giving me a chance to get used to whichever kite I decide to buy.
:tumble:
