This kite is designed more for lift than a "trainer" kite. Just sayin!

OK choice tho... Gonna be challenging if you don't have gentle winds for your first few goes. Small lifty kites in the top of their wind range can
be extremely dangerous though... Use a bit of common sense with the winds and you'll be fine, if not you'll be runnin for a spankin bro...
Just sayin!
edit: just saw your other thread... Yep that kite will teach a bit about brake usage, you'll just have to be a quick enough learner to keep up...
might be good to have the video running, esp if the wind is a bit up...
Good luck there!

4.1 might be a better size, but I have not flown the 3m yet. Normally kites in the 4m range are a bit of an odd size, but this one fits perfectly. I
have a feeling that the power and feedback from the 4.1 would be steadier and more solid than with the 3m. You'd just have to be careful with it,
because it's a beast of a kite.

I have the 4.1 brand new in the pack. Took it out once to see what it looked like and put it back!! I was going to fly it Sunday at WBB but then Todd
warned me it was a lifty beast. I don't have desire to be lifted. So it is still waiting for me to man-up and try it.:ticking:
