Venom II (found)

3shot - 28-7-2014 at 03:51 PM

Anyone got one in the back of the closet or shed collecting dust?
I'm interested in a 10m or 13m to go with my 16m. Can be kite only, or RTF. Trying not to break the bank here lol.

Dude... How is your wife not looking at you with the death stare by now... I'm only up to 6 kites and get the stink eye when I talk about "maybe another"

Trust me.... her Scrapbooking and Pinterest hobbies are fair trade too LOL
Plus I try to buy all used kites for the most part. That helps.

Seriously though. I involve her. Taking her to JIBE was a huge boost in her wrapping her mind around the whole kite thing, and the people in the sport. Up until then, it was it was just soccer field flying. :thumbup:

3shot, I don't have a venom, but I do have a quiver of scorpions (10m, 13m, 16m) I would sell you if they might be of interest.

Thanks kiteballoon. I'm really just looking for a 10 or 13m Venom II.

3shot, I read somewhere, maybe on here, that they measured arcs differently back when venoms were made and that a 13m venom 1 or 2 is equivalent to a modern arc 15m. That means your 16M might measure more like a modern arc 18m. I don't know, just a theory.

Hmmm. Good question. I've seen markite's 22m CH2, That would swallow my V2 16m twice LOL

Man that 16m scorpion is one of the most under rated kites out there. Some of my best days are using that kite
