borntofli - 10-9-2011 at 08:15 AM

Both good condition complete w/bar, lines....23m lines + 4m extensions for the 13..........
13m $400 shipped
11m $350 shipped sold

Windrange is about the same, the 13 has a little more grunt and the 11 is a little faster..I can go in 11kts on either......

They are not one pump kites, but that makes leaks easier to fix.

<160 lb go for the 11
> 160 lb go for the 13..

13 Pics




Look how flat it is..

reason for selling..... I am always buying and trying kites, no way to demo all the kites I want to try...

Better flatwater kites than surf... Floaty jumpers

I have always wanted a tube kite… but I dunno. The wind out here is always really crappy, and I don't want to have to deal with the fear of popping something/valve degradation over time >.<

Midgaar - 10-9-2011 at 11:41 AM

What year are the kites? Any leaks, repairs? Are they bow or C-kites?

Dibs on the 11m.

This link will give all info on the kites......

I've replaced a valve or two on each, they are both good to very good condition....

This is the first time I've ever seen 11 and 13 meter inflatos referred to as "light wind" kites. What do you weigh, 60 lbs? I've got a 20m Best Waroo. Now -thats- a light wind kite! :lol: (Just teasing... ;) ).

Midgaar - 10-9-2011 at 04:00 PM

I guess these are not beginner kites so I will be passing, great price though!

borntofli - 17-9-2011 at 05:08 AM

Bump for new additions.....rotating out most of my kitesurfing gear....

Ovando 13/11

Power on 13m is almost the same as 15-16m bow/sle when using standard 23m lines.

I fly mine on 24m+6m extensions, with my weight 200lbs and beginner/intermediate skill can go as low as 12knts on 150 Mako, 10knts with a 6'6" surfboard, so it has roughly the same power as my 17m Waroo on 27m lines.

Under appreciated good kites, good materials and construction quality, decent wind range, relatively good depower (even with 9" bar throw).

Not beginner friendly only because it needs constant back lines tension as it will overfly fast and just dives down. Once learned very easy and predictable.
Reverse launch comes handy (mid wind range and up), practice needed to avoid yarding :-)

BTW; EH does not sell 13m anymore as the newest 11m has almost identical wind range.

PHREERIDER - 17-9-2011 at 08:45 AM

I'LL take the 11mm.

borntofli - 17-9-2011 at 09:24 AM

Unfortunately EH closed shop this year..... He'll be coming out with stuff under a diff name soon, i bet....His designs are always pushing limits of what can be done w/ kites...

erratic winds - 17-9-2011 at 12:28 PM

Someone scoop that octane 7, it's just a GREAT kite. I absolutely absoluely LOVE my 5m as my high-wind tool.

borntofli - 23-9-2011 at 01:56 PM

A couple new additions....

2009 Naish Global 5'7 surfboard.. bought new early spring.... $375

domdino - 23-9-2011 at 09:02 PM

Love the mako 140, what you switching it for out of interest? Its my main board at the mo

Kamikuza - 23-9-2011 at 09:42 PM

What year is that Mako? 2010? How about shipping to Japan :D any idea?

borntofli - 24-9-2011 at 03:10 AM

The mako is 2009-10, not sure which...... The only thing I ride anymore are surfboards....

Kamikuza - 24-9-2011 at 03:51 AM

Can it be shipped to Japan or will that cost an arm and a leg?

borntofli - 24-9-2011 at 08:13 AM

my guess it would be an arm and 2 legs....

You would need some serious power for it at your size... A friend of mine at 230lbs has a hard time on it unless hes seriously powered....

Kamikuza - 24-9-2011 at 09:17 PM

Yeah I switch to my small boards when I get powered up on the big kites ... gives me another 5 knots of range but it depends on the kite - the Speed's make so much lift that it's really only the utter bottom end that I need the 'door. Arcs and LEIs on the other hand ...

Oh well - I was hoping shipping wouldn't kill the deal but ... :(

dandre - 24-9-2011 at 09:28 PM

THE FATTEST KITEBOARDER IN JAPAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'd buy the c4 if I didn't beat the crap out of my kites.
Me and my kite are nakama! If I eat that bush you'd better bet my kite is coming in for seconds//

van - 24-9-2011 at 10:08 PM

I'll be in rockport in a couple weeks. If the mako is still available , I'll drop by port A and pick it up from you.

Kamikuza - 24-9-2011 at 10:13 PM

You bastard van :lol:

borntofli - 25-9-2011 at 06:40 PM

Mako sold....

van - 26-9-2011 at 06:30 AM

Kami .. you still go dibs on it so it's still yours if you want it .. haha... I was gonna get it if no one was gonna buy it before I head down to rockport. I was planning to go down next weekend to surf at Port A.

btw ... not sure if he means it sold to me or some else .. :D

borntofli - 26-9-2011 at 09:06 AM

sold to someone else...was kiting yesterday and guy bought it right there....

van - 26-9-2011 at 11:21 AM

Cool .. you just saved me $275 .. haahaaa .. :smilegrin:

Kamikuza - 26-9-2011 at 05:03 PM

No you're right mate - local sales get priority IMO for the benefit of the seller ... shipping, boxing etc is time-consuming and we all have to sell our gear at big discounts so ...

rocfighter - 26-9-2011 at 06:27 PM

We bought our PL STD from Born2fly. The Kidd and I have worked that buggy a lot since then. He's a good seller and we got just what he said we would.
