I flew on of these Sunday in 25-38mph wind and it was a sweet little kite. Lots of power but easy to handle. I know it's a long shot as it is an older
kite. But I would like to find one.bigkahuna - 18-10-2011 at 07:48 AM
Don't be afraid to try one of the newer Bests. The Bularoos were designed to be a multi purpose kite, I have sizes 10-16 and they are great kites. I
also had a 5m Waroo and it was equally good, but the Bularoos were beefier. If you find a small one of either of these (mine are 2008 vintage) they
are great kites.rocfighter - 20-10-2011 at 04:46 AM
Thanks I will check them out as well. I was asking about the other because I flew it and it was wicked nice. Just right for crazy winds. I think I
would like most any thing in the same range of size and handling.rocfighter - 6-12-2011 at 07:59 AM
I guess non avalible here, I also checked craigs list a few times. indigo_wolf - 6-12-2011 at 08:48 AM
Perhaps this would suit you.... a tad smaller than the Best.
SkyHigh Kites is located on Martha's Vineyard. Might just want to ring (508.259.2728) them up and see if it would be a good fit for the slot in your
quiver you are trying to fill.

Cool.... Until you're sorted, I'll keep an eye out for other likely candidates.
You might want to check with some of the local schools. They will be cycling out their on-hand trainers and smaller LEIs in preparation for the 2012
gear.

No water for me so far. I just knew about SkyHighKites because I have been lusting after that Uno :sniff: In the words of Hugo the Abominable

Well I didn't figure it out fast enouph and so I didn't get the one in the Vineyard. Still looking. Wish I could figure out craigs list. Is it just me
or can every one only search one town at a time?indigo_wolf - 3-2-2012 at 12:15 PM
Craigslist officially only lets you search one town (region, actually) at a time. Plenty of other sites provide you the capability to perform more
extensive searchs and across multiple cities.

Do a google search for "search all craigslist" and you should find a bunch of sites that allow you to search more than one city at a time or by
regions and such. If you have a phone that supports apps, they have some craigslist apps that allow broader searches too, pretty handy.rdavis - 3-2-2012 at 12:18 PM
