Any one know anything about this kite? I want to get into kiting surfing and a coworker offered this one up for sale, he doesn't know anything about
the kite either it was given to him by the previous owner of his home.
I have only snow kited so far and dont know what to look for, I think it is a 12m kite.

Till others with specific knowledge come along, historically any kite 2005 and earlier tended to not have any safety whatsoever and also very little
depower. I would imagine this Cabrina wouldn't be any different.

2nd Bob on this one. And generally when someone asks about buying a used kite from a seller that doesn't know what they are selling, its a red flag,

Good point, I was just thinking I could get a good deal because he doesn't know what he has.

Here is some discussion on it : http://www.kiteforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=2314253
Sounds like it was a beginner kite from just before Cab' brought out the Bow kite.
It has the " Recon " safety system . No personal experience with that.
I think if you get it for what your buddy paid for it . Free. It will fly and doesn't sound so aggressive that it will kill you ? Better than it
sitting in the basement but ???
If it was a year newer and a Crossbow it might be more interesting.
