Phantom 1 18m MINT KO SOLD

Feyd - 10-1-2012 at 07:09 AM

This kite has been in the air twice. Once static flying and once riding ice in super light winds yesterday. It looks, smells, tastes and feels brand new.

I flew her side by side with a a 2011/12 15m Speed 3SA flown by a pilot 40lbs light than me who was on skates. The Phantom performed better than I expected. Some very F-Arc like flight quality without the "I'm going to kill you at any minute" feeling when the wind picked up. ;-)

But I have too many kites to warrant keeping her, too bad because she looks Bad A$$.

Kite and bag only. $450 shipped to the lower 48.

Park and ride beauty! Love mine!

Feyd - 10-1-2012 at 08:01 AM

HA! Yeah that would be nice.

I'd like to keep her but I gotta thin out the herd here. It's too nice a kite to be sitting in the garage.

yes I flew with Todd and Rich at JIBE and those are works of beauty in the air...........................rock solid with great depow range..............better snag this one whilst shes still available or Feyd changes his mind.........................

OMG this is still here, I can't believe it. Someone has to buy this and get rid of the temptation! Where the heck is Goofball!

Just curious. Is the auto zenith on the Phantom better than on the Venom II series? Does the 18m Phantom have more power than the Venom II 19m?

Feyd - 10-1-2012 at 05:50 PM

Auto zenith is right there for sure. Even in the funky winds yesterday I was able to let go of the bar and mess with my boots, skate over to talk to people, etc.

Does it have more power that the V2 19m? I haven't flown them side by side to compare but I would hazard a guess that they would be close but the 19v2 would have more grunt.

The Phantom would kick the 19mV2 in upwind and speed tho.

And very likely lift.

Feyd
Done deal, just email me your info as I'm locked out of the u2u messenger for the moment and can't respond via

Just had my recently acquired p18 up at the beach this weekend.
The wind was still to low to do much, but it launched fairly easy and was like a slo-mo ballet in the air...:cool2:

g force did you try erasing some of your u2u's, don't forget to empty them out of your trash once deleted. Not sure if you were aware so just throwing it out there. There is also a way to get your u2u raised to a 200 limit, forgot how that goes!

Oh and you are going to enjoy the heck out of this kite! Great pop on a board, awesome park and ride in a buggy!
Just one massive beaut!

g-force junkie - 11-1-2012 at 02:17 PM

Thanks shehatesmyhobbies, did that but forgot to empty trash, I'll try that
