Wanted: 3 to 3.2m fixed bridle

beachrights - 4-11-2012 at 04:18 PM

My Bullet is too small and my 3.9 Viper is too big said the Big Bad Wolf.

I am seriously considering selling my newly acquired Peter Lynn Viper 6.8m- my winds are just too strong here for this puppy.

I thought I would entertain a trade, trade with cash 1st before selling outright. And thats you supplying the cash!

Fixed Bridle, I fly on handles and looking for pull not lift.

PKD Buster Soulfly! 3.3m or a 4.4m. http://www.pkdkitesusa.com/products/Buster-Soulfly.html I used a 1.5m during pre-hurricane Sandy winds in this video http://vimeo.com/52415203

What were the wind speeds when you had that 1.5m out?

I almost feel embarrassed when I look at my quiver size! Or was that something else I was concerned about size?:frog:

Check out BigMikeskites...he has a 3m core (demo) for sale...
I just flew my little 1.8 core in some hardcore gusty winds the other day and was getting ripped through the fields...
Great little engine for those kind of days so....I would imagine the 3m flying just as well.

soliver - 20-11-2012 at 06:16 PM

I agree with BEC... go for the Core,... I have a 4m & a 5.1m and love both kites,... It is a great & fast buggy engine and they move upwind very well... I particularly like the 4m in 10-13mph winds.

And if you haven't dealt with him before, Big Mike is great to deal with I've bought a bunch of stuff from him and he's a stand up guy. He'll get it to you quick too.
