Ripsession had these and did a pass.

I found it to be a lot like my old Bullet but with adjustable bridle. Different / smart bag. NOT much of a race kite but a good buggy engine.

Unfortunately with Ripsesssion out of the picture my access to this and a few other cool brands is gone with it ! :no:

OOPS! You are in France. Should be available near you ?

IdiGO ????

Applicable threads:

Wolkenstuermer ... german kite company

Pass The Wolkenstuermer Electra 4.6

Wolkenstuermer Electra 4.6m

Reading through those threads should give you some more info. After that, you won't know until you know.

Depending on where you are in France, you might want to contact http://www.bilboquet.com/kite,uc2.html (their physical store is located at 9 rue saint Guenhaël, 56000 VANNES, FRANCE on the western coast. . They are a Wolkenstürmer dealer, even though they only list the Paraflex on their website, they might be able to arrange a demo of the Electra for you.

ATB,
Sam

hello,
tank you for answers.
I live near La Rochelle.
I'm not practicing buggy but the kite jumping and sometimes landboard.

The Electra had an adjustable bridle but was pretty low aspect so isn't the 1st kite I would be looking at for jumping. I think coming from a Blade background and wanting air they may disapoint. The kite reminded more of Flexi's Bullet in shape.
