** Gin Yeti 6m & 4.5m depower foils **

B-Roc - 29-4-2012 at 02:57 PM

I'm selling my 6m and 4.5m Yetis. The Yeti can best be described as a cross between a Frenzy and an Access or a Montana and an Apex.

I weigh 150# and kiteboard on sand. I've ridden the 6 from 12 - 20mph and the 4.5 from 15 - 27 (don't know the true top end but that was what it was blowing last time out).

Both kites are in very good to like new condition. Both have been flown only over sand (no water and no snow because the winter was so bad). The 6m has around 12 hours on it and the 4.5 about 3.

Here is my review of the 6 and I feel the same can be said about the 4.5. This liink also demonstrates the 5th line safety of Gin in action. http://www.powerkiteforum.com/viewthread.php?tid=17617&p...

See technical specs and Gin descriptors here http://www.ginkites.com/products/foil-kites/yeti


Asking $535 shipped (con US) for the 6 and $420 shipped (con US) for the 4.5. Both kites come complete and ready to fly.


Here is how they could look in your collection all bagged up.

???? Why ???? Those kites are awesome ...... and BLACK !!!! like no other ,,,,... I love my 4.5m......

No disputing that, Kober.

The 6 is a fantastic kite and I don't have enough time on the 4.5 to comment fully.

Do you know the sizes of the Sherpa? Hoping I can get that in a 7.

you need minimum of 1 Gin in you collection .... there is no that many black kites .... that fly very well .... as said before ..... i love my 4.5 ...

Bumpty-bump. I appreciated the inquiries from those of you interested in these kites but they are still for sale.

Winter is coming, now is a great time to get familiar with these kites and then ride hard this the fall / winter and beyond.

Thanks for your interest!

Please check your u2u box.

B-Roc - 17-7-2012 at 04:08 PM

Both kites are still available.

B-Roc - 16-8-2012 at 04:01 PM

Given that summer is ending and my prime riding season is approaching, I'll let the 4.5 go for $420 shipped (Con US).

If you've been holding out and thinking about this kite, now is the time.

Will consider selling both as a package deal for $935 shipped (Con US).

I want to get my quiver settled by Labor Day.

Thanks for looking.
