PKD Brooza's

After spending over a week in Galveston for Dead Bird I had a chance to fly all but one of the Brooza's. When the wind came up real strong one day it was too much for the 2 meter. I had a chance to fly the 3, 4 and 5.5 meter. They handled very good and predictable. They did not luff in gusty winds and launching the kites they power up slow so no surprises. They are a joy to fly. Just put them up and go.

I’m currently flying a 2.5 pepper, I’m planning on a 5.5 brooza for my next kite, all the sites I’ve found in the uk only sell the brooza’s as kite only. What would be the recommended line (length) and handle set for this kite

5.5m Brooza's like 25m lines, mid sized handles(39cm)

Keep an eye out, 2007 brooza's are supposed to be RTF as well as print on the top and bottom, also added cleanout zips on the trailing edge, should be getting my first 7.5m's in some time this week.

I got my hands on a 3m Brooza in high gusty winds and now I own one.
I used to think my JoJo was " all of that " and that I would never outgrow it. While it does most things very well, it will deflate in big lulls. I just got used to it.
Now I pull out the 3m for survival a lot more than fun and the Brooza handles junk a whole lot better. The small inlets seem to be a big part of it. Slow steady inflation and less deflation in lulls. Mine also came kite only.
The graphics are very nice to. Speaking of to LOOKING good ! :wink2:

Cheers guys, Pablo, are they generally released in the uk at the same time as the us or is there a delay, also is it worth looking into buying from us stores and shipping to uk or is the price difference to minimal .

They've been out in the uk for a while now, the US is usually at least a couple months behind, I've already got my hands on some of the 07 kites so they should be available over there.

The guy to talk to for the most recent info would be Roger.

The pricing should be roughly the same world wide, so cheaper to support your local businesses, less shipping cost.
