kite for buggy

minde28383 - 7-9-2010 at 12:48 AM

Hi,
I want one of the Pansh kites. I can't decide which would be great for buggy for inland runs and gusty winds.
I don't want lifty (vertical) kite but one which has lots of traction (horizontally). That’s the main criteria which makes me confuse. As I mentioned I need powerful traction (horizontally) kike; jumps/lift is not needed at all.
I have flown some kite, so I know basics.

I'm 82kg

I know that ACE 5m 6m is really lifty beast
Legend is slow and for beginners
Sprint is fast for race
Blade is slow…

I have 2 Ace 5m and yes they are lifty beasts. In fack one of them is still brand new and never flown. Not good for straight run buggying. I bet awsome for freestyle though.

I would stick with Legends or blazes to start with if you are set on Pansh. 2 kites, 3m and a (4.5, 5, 5.5) would probably do well to start.
