Hi everyone.

I just went out yesterday with a freind of mine who suggested i try power kiting. He has done it many times before and is a pro, but as until 24 hours ago i had never tried it.

Good god did i enjoy myself, we went out in what he said were the strongest winds he had been out in, and said that i did very well for my first time etc etc ( i have videos if you would like to see! - email me!).

He had a Blade 4.0, and was very much thinking of getting one myself. I know its not a beginners kite, but i really liked that one and it suited me really well, can anyone give me any advice on how best to get myself started?

By the way, power kiting is amazing, i REALLY enjoyed it and cant wait to get out again soon!

Many Thanks.

Air,

I started with a 4m Blade III - it was a great kite. I kind of wish I kept it.

It really got aggressive/violent in high winds!

Maybe you can try to buy his old 4m?
