I have sold most of this stuff. Only the 11m Wipika is left.
I have a pile of Wipika kites that I would like to sell. A buddy of mine took these out of his garage and asked me what I thought. I told him I would
throw them out there to see if someone wanted them. If you want pictures, let me know and I'll send them your way. I have no idea what these would be
worth, so let's start at $300 for the lot. If they go for that, I'll pay for shipping anywhere in the lower 48. If you want them outside of the US or
if the price is lower than $300, the lot weighs about 27-28 pounds and I am in Utah. All bladders hold air well. All kites come with bags. Below is a
list of what is included:
3ish meter trainer kite with bridle. This kite is a little LEI two line kite. There really isn't much to say about it. I flew it on my Rush III Pro
bar and it flew fine. There are two patches on this kite. Both match the color of the sail.
Wipika Classic 5.0. This kite is fun to fly and provides plenty of power. It has no bridle system, but there is plenty of info online on how to make
one. I've flown it with a depower bar and it has worked ok.
Wipika Free Air 7.1. Do a search and you will see how well these were liked back in the day. This kite is convertable between two or four lines. There
is no bridle with this kite. It is in good condition. I noticed no repairs done to the kite.
2002 Wipika Hydro+ 11m. I have never seen this in the air although my friend told me this kite nearly killed him. There is a tear that was
professionaly repaired on this kite. It looks like the tear was pretty large as the repair runs from top to bottom on the kite. It was repaired with
tape then sewn for strength.
3 Airush bars. 21, 24, and 28 inches. All bars come complete with 4 line linesets (I don't know how much time is on them). I have used the 28 inch bar
and it works fine.
1 30m x2 500lb lineset. This is just what the lineset is labeled. I have no way to know is that is what it really is but I have no reason to doubt it.
2 Pumps. These are just little red hand pumps. Nothing special, but they do the job.
If you have any questions (or if you fall off your chair laughing at my prices) drop me a line.
Thanks for looking.
