2010 13m EH Ovando KO or RTF

Eric Hertzen design Ovando, Delta C kite with amazing low end, power, and turn speed. Flown on 27m lines this kite will take you upwind in 8/9 kts (190 lb rider and a Door or surfboard). This kite has the same low end range as my 17m just to give you a power prospective. HOWEVER, this kite is not intended for beginners. It is a delta C design with only 10 inches of throw in the bar so she powers like a c kite. Fast turner and kwick but stable thru the window. 13 to 17mph is amazing speed and boosts huge with more than ample float.

Kite is black, green, and brown, a nice color scheme/combo. New LE bladder and 2 struts done at Fixmykite with warranty.........LE and bladder valves were leaking so I sent her in. Also rear line pulleys were replaced, Front lines do not have pulleys....no tears, repairs or leaks, pics avail, kite only or ready to fly your call. If your current 4 line bar has an active stopper ball that locks to control bar travel, your good to go. The bar I have to sell with her is a PL 55 cm bar, Zero 7 modded with an Ozone Megatron chicken loop, active stopper ball that locks, and front line safety release line. No bulky leash attached to the front lines for flag out. Lines are factory PL in very good condition.

Kite only $300shipped and insured
Kite with bar and lines $400


In closing this kite is not intended for beginners. This is a Lamborghini not a SUV. Look forward to hearing from you........

Hmmm :puzzled:
I just sold my '09 Ov13 and I am already having a "seller remorse"
I am a beginner (on water) and yes kite required constant attention, but novice should consider this;

A guy that keeps stalling a Lambo is a guy that ownes a Lambo nevertheless.
When one stops stalling, one starts driving it, and this one is a rewarding ride :cool2:
(not too many can outgrow this kite, that is for sure)

Ohhh....... the decision, new roof or a "Lambo"
Will have to sleep on this some more

I'd perfer the buyer enjoying the kite in real time not on you tube while in the hospital..........point is there are a lot better choices out there for beginners to get started ie depower and relaunch.....relaunch is fine but this kite depowers 70 percent at best, again which is fine with more experience............also a quick turner for a 13 combined with limited depow...........experience necessary........
