flyjump - 18-9-2013 at 07:42 PM

Keep the kite and use it to scud back and forth across the lawn and shear off the blades of grass keeping lawn trim!

I will get some pictures up when I get home from work. This kite is still super crispy, bright, and undamaged.:thumbup:

Is anybody interested, or are you just waiting for pictures?

Demoknight - 19-9-2013 at 12:16 PM

Pictures are the best way to convince someone they need it.

flyjump - 19-9-2013 at 12:20 PM

I'll be home in an hour and a half to put up some pictures:)

For those of you that are "Newer" to the forum, Adam, aka Flyjump is very trustworthy! He is a stand up guy and one hell of a friend to have! He is not just a great kiter, he is a bad A$$ landboarder as well.

Once he gets the pics up, this thing will move quickly, I am actually surprised it hasn't moved yet,

If you are held up buying this kite because you are unsure of Flyjump, wait no more, pull the trigger!

Thanks Rick :)

65cm Seems like a big bar for a 16m. Those lines look nice and new, 07 release is sweet. I use a 55 for my 19venom and a 45 (I think) for my 13venom. Or do these need bigger bars than the venoms in general? I have used the 55 on my 13 before and it still works fine, just better watch it because that thing whips around!

This is an awesome deal though and very tempting, seems like itd fit between my 13/19 pretty well! Wish I had the funds...

flyjump - 20-9-2013 at 05:38 AM

Whatever the size of large bar that peter lynn used to issue with 16m venoms and scorpions comes with this kite. Now I have never actually measure it myself, but I assume it is somewhere around 60cm.

Like I said, it is in pristine condition! :D

I want it to sell today

OmniSmurfZ - 20-9-2013 at 05:52 AM

Ahhh gotcha. Somebody buy it quick! Me and my girlfriend just got in a bragging match of how good each of us has been with not spending un-needly lately. I kind of lost...

Smeagol - 20-9-2013 at 11:48 AM

This is an awesome deal. Heck, I'm even tempted and I already have a 16m Scorp, haha. I think I even got it from flyjump if memory serves. Kite was in amazing condition.

maybe I should try a Scorp stack? :o

how many 16m Scorpions do you have there flyjump? ;)

someone snag this!

OmniSmurfZ - 20-9-2013 at 11:50 AM

Whats the low end on this kite that you've got it to fly in?

flyjump - 20-9-2013 at 12:02 PM

I've literally had close to seven or eight 16m scorpions over the last few years. It was one of my all time favorite arcs to fly. Once you learn how to fly it, it is one of the best kites to ride.

OmniSmurfZ, I have had the kite flying in 7-8mph on a hard packed beach riding back and forth before at wildwood a couple years ago.

Sheesh, I caught myself thinking about taking her off your hands! Great kite for sure, bargain price too but I don't need a Scorp! (that's what I keep telling myself.)


flyjump - 21-9-2013 at 08:24 AM

Im beginning to think you and i are the only two people who liked the scorpions

This is such a wicked deal, and a sick kite at a good size. I bet that bar is a 55". I used a 65" with my 19 and it was the longest bar I've ever SEEN, much less used. The bigger bars make all the difference with arcs > 14m, in my opinion (maybe it's unnecessary on the P2 and C2... Haven't flown them yet.)

Sold :)

markite - 25-9-2013 at 10:34 AM

I like my Scorpions as well - used them on water, buggy, winter. That was a great deal, glad it sold.

snowspider - 25-9-2013 at 02:33 PM

Adam I was tempted to offer you the lawnmower under the shed and a couple of bags of cans and bottles , that is a very cool kite! ;)
