hey 
Ive been kiting for a while and Ive loved my venom's they are really good at absorbing gusts Ive gotten some good jumps with these too on the right
settings
But i got an opportunity to get two 2005 fuels one is a nine meter the other a 15 meter payed 200 for both of them and lines and bar didnt think it
was to bad so Ive just been flying these without my board to get the feel of
them got some lift off them not much hang time but its scary how fast i went up.
I don't really understand the fifth line system or the settings on them is anyone familiar with them? or if someone could give me some tips on C kites
in general
Fuels

Ok, so 2005 Fuels have less depower ability than modern iterations. That's not to say that they're not useable, because they most certainly are. They
are, however, very advanced level kites. Yes, they're lofty. Yes, they are a handful at times. Two kites isn't enough of a quiver for these kites.
They have a VERY specific wind range. You simply cannot use them overpowered. You will end up losing your board and/or you'll
get hurt. :o
I can give you more information on them via PM or email, but seriously, this is your first post on the forum, so I'm assuming you're not toooo
familiar with the potential dangers of older LEI's. Be safe at the very least. I've got a good amount of experience with older kites, especially the
Fuels. Look forward to hearing from you.
