7.5m HQ Apex III SOLD

BeamerBob - 30-4-2013 at 04:28 PM

This kite has been used slightly but not at all in the last year or more. We always seem to use the Montanas. It's probably time to move it out and make room on the kite shelf. This kite has no damage or repairs, but it has some lakebed dust on it. I can unpack it and take some pics tomorrow. I've had this kite over 50 mph and that was not its limit in the least.

This kite is ready to fly but without a bag.

To your front door for $500. Reduced to $475 below

Ok, no response in a day so the price goes down.

Still delivered to lower 48 for $475. There is time to get it to JIBE and have it waiting for you there.

Here are some pics I took of the kite today. I didn't realize what good shape this kite is in. I really don't think its been flown more than 3-4 times. The bar and lines look new except for a bit of dust on them. You can see dust on the kite in a few places but the bright colors don't really show it at all. I can really downplay the amount of dust on the kite but it is visible if you are looking for it. These are just 2 of the 8 or so pics of it.

Others are available Here. All pics are hi res so you can zoom and pan all you like.

Let's theoretically say I'm interested. Where would I look for a bag for the kite?

The bag is not essential to fly the kite. So if you just wanted something to store it in any duffel bag, backpack, even pillow case would serve that purpose. Honestly the bag that came with that kite was not the greatest thing in the world. It was always a bit hard for me to stuff it all in there. So I wouldnt put to much effort into finding the original bag for it unless you just really want it all to match.

Sounds good. I knew the bag wasn't required, I just wasn't sure what folks do with the kites they don't have bags for.

When my son lost our bag, I contacted the Mfr and could not get a replacement bag. I keep all my fixed bridle kites in a duffle bag and have considered taking them all out and just having the bare kites in there to make more room and less weight. I have a mismatched bag I keep this kite in but it would be fine to just keep it folded and strapped together. A nylon laundry bag would be plenty good if you wanted to keep inside something.

I picked up one of those mesh cinch bags at a local sports store for one of my arcs for like $11. It's something like 24x18" and is nice because it lets dirt/sand/etc escape out the mesh. It fits a ~24m arc so I'm sure it would fit this. ;)
