Getting a toxic but it looks like I'll be getting only one.
Guess I need to choose between the three larger ones.
As much as I like the 8M, it would very rarely see air..
The 5M would have quite a bit of overlap with my 4M CrossfireII.
The 6.5 would see less air but would end up being the big dog for a while..
My quiver is below and unless something sells, I probably won't shift it around too much.. Flying is mainly static and some buggy.. Your thoughts
please?? and Why??BeamerBob - 8-3-2014 at 09:07 AM
A 5 meter would probably be your most used size. It was always a staple in the quiver when riding grass and the beach.3shot - 8-3-2014 at 12:55 PM
That yellow is pretty sweet!riffclown - 8-3-2014 at 08:31 PM
Actually, all of the toxic colors look good. ssayre - 8-3-2014 at 09:08 PM
The 6.5 would be useful for you up to about 12 and your 4.5 would be good above that. With that said, I'm looking at the 5 meter because I think it
would be my goto kite for my conditions. AnnieO - 9-3-2014 at 06:51 AM
6.8 Viper S is my most used kite during the summer. 4.7 Rage or 5M Blurr are my most used kites during the rest of the year. I'm inland and if I want
to do much flying or riding in the summer months then low wind machines are a must. Of course the 5M will be more fun because it will turn faster and
will always have a place in your quiver since on average it will see more use than a larger FB kite.
I even have an 8.3 Reactor that comes out some during the summer months. That's for when I really want to salvage a kite day. Just some food for
thought from an inland flyer with not the greatest winds.
I would get the 5M now because the big 'uns do come up in the FS section from time to time and you can find a nice big low wind machine that way. At
least that was what worked for me.Demoknight - 9-3-2014 at 08:27 AM

I think the 6.5 would be fine to ride or fly static with up to 18 or so actually. I tend to fly a bit overpowered, but my 8m is a blast in 12-15.riffclown - 9-3-2014 at 09:02 AM

Good point and That's exactly what I ordered today.. Thanks for the advice.. I'll keep my eyes open for the 8M if one ever hits the "For Sale" section

it 5 and the between 6.5 considerable the difference . the 5 much more nervous ones , I do not like using it with a bar only with banana can it be
treated :evil: and not only the force of wind .
but without the 8 ??? important size ! - if my shoulder gets into order once , I buy it to immediately riffclown - 9-3-2014 at 01:04 PM
I have a Flexifoil bar that I've never even used. I'm strictly the quad handle type. (a control freak if you will ) The 8 is in my future, it's just
a matter of when..3shot - 9-3-2014 at 05:07 PM
Cant wait to see that kite!Demoknight - 10-3-2014 at 07:26 AM
While I love all the colors of them, the 3, 5, and 8m are the best looking of the bunch for what it's worth ice kiter - 11-3-2014 at 06:24 AM
You have a 4.5 so the 6.5 ...ice kiter - 11-3-2014 at 06:56 AM
