SOLD - 9m, 12m, 15m, and 18m Gen 1 Phantoms

g00fba11 - 3-11-2014 at 12:58 PM

Since I only kite once in a while now and only in the snow, I am selling off these sweet kites.

The 9 is near new crispy. I had 2 - 18s. I don't think this 18 ever saw air time. The 15m is the orange and black version and was flown once. The 12m I got from BeamerBob and has seen air time on the playa. I had purchased these for what they are as part of kite history. I had Feyd's cult 15 phantom which saw plenty of air time but that one is long gone.

The 9m comes with its short bar and lines that also works on the 12m.

I am selling this as a complete set so don't ask me to break it up. You won't like my single kite prices.


I haven't been around much, but I am sure there are those still around that can vouch for me.

Wow...

ssayre - 3-11-2014 at 04:47 PM

my sentiments exactly. I hope you get them jadog. Your only a little under 2 hours away. I need to make it up there to check these out if you get them.

PHREERIDER - 3-11-2014 at 05:36 PM

Man Goof, whole kit! what a deal.

what happened to the P15 that came with the V10?

macboy - 3-11-2014 at 05:51 PM

Oh god.......look away.......look away.......Please tell me these are snapped up already.......

g00fba11 - 3-11-2014 at 06:25 PM

Yup, whole phanny kit.

I don't remember who got the cult 15. If memory serves me was some new kiter and was his second arc. He wanted a phantom so I let the cult kite go. My quiver was starting to swell at that time.

So I hope the kite I kept covers me for my occasional goofing around.

Mainly husky powered now. A good share of my kite gear has crossed over.

No kite porn like I used to list with 3 huskies running around. They know how to open doggy gates and escape and to much husky doo in the yard.

macboy - 3-11-2014 at 07:33 PM

What is it you mean by the "Cult" kite? Not the bagged out, tired one that wound up passed around and around here for a while? I've got that one waiting here quietly for a Kieron inspired project ; )

g00fba11 - 3-11-2014 at 08:17 PM

Hopefully Phree will pop in and give the illustrious history of the 15m Phanny Cult kite.

PHREERIDER - 4-11-2014 at 07:52 AM

is this the one ur talking about? "cult", i had got this kite from Carl and repaired it used for couple years. it definitely has a "cult following" and pulled some serious time ,

i think carl ripped it on a post snow kiting , then i got for postage $ and dental floss repaired it and totally loved it. learned a ton on it, as did carl.

sale went down summer of 2011

heres the original thread ..

Wow, Phree, I hit my head harder than I thought at NABX 2012.

That is the one and the story!

Thanks Phree for clearing the cobwebs.....

Still got the leash hangin on the wall from your 10m reunion tour with the 10m Venom at NABX 2012.

macboy - 4-11-2014 at 03:57 PM

Yup.....I think I've got it sitting here in my closet right beside the sewing machine! It's still in the "family" and hasn't had a stitch ripper taken to it (YET!).

Just thought everyone would like to know it's still around. I'd love to know where some of my old stuff is nowadays....like my first car, first bike, my Acid rages (shakes head regretfully).....

g00fba11 - 4-11-2014 at 05:51 PM

Is it the one held together with some very fine stitching done with dental gloss?

PHREERIDER - 4-11-2014 at 06:56 PM

yes , close to spar pocket up to LE, seem to be about 2-3ft section

jadog - 4-11-2014 at 07:38 PM

Does anybody have an extra bar for they are looking to sell? I just found out that this only includes a single bar for the 9-12M kites. So if this works out for me, I would need a bar to share between the 15M and the 18M.

g00fba11 - 4-11-2014 at 07:57 PM

Jadog. You could PM BeamerBob and check with him on that Navi.

You'd have to ask the experts here how 1st gen Phantoms would handle on a Navi bar.

Anyone got an original large PL bar setup they could sell Jadog?


BeamerBob - 4-11-2014 at 08:03 PM

I wouldn't want to fly one with an original navi bar unless it was a really small one. I was always against the Y line configuration though. I think it closes the arc in too much to allow it to fly like it was designed to fly.

g00fba11 - 4-11-2014 at 08:30 PM

I remembered the Navi and it's long y line had issues but thought I should double check.

My Griffin bar went east with my VII a while back.

I fouled this Airush bar that is very interesting. Converts between 5th line flag out and four line with single line flag out.

It's a very interesting bar. If I was still big into this sport one of those would be on its way here for testing.

g00fba11 - 4-11-2014 at 08:32 PM

Hmmm. Found them.....

Adjustable length in a single bar as well. A one bar does it all set up.

Should just have to play with the standard adjustments on the pigtails to get this one dialed in.


carltb - 5-11-2014 at 02:02 AM

I had no idea my old phnny was the "cult phanny" in its prime - https://vimeo.com/1094064 and the last time I flew it - https://vimeo.com/977301

carltb - 5-11-2014 at 02:04 AM

oh yea, if you was in the UK I would ve taken this quiver off ya !!! with the exchange rate its only £750

g00fba11 - 5-11-2014 at 08:32 AM

Carltb sweet vids.

Pics coming on the Phantoms. Only a peak in the bag as I don't want my huskies getting a hold of these beauties. After cracking the bags and seeing these almost having sellers remorse already.

Wow, these kites are sweet if I do say so myself.

Adding my bar request to the wanted section...

g00fba11 - 5-11-2014 at 08:34 AM

Boy trying a few ways to add images but doesn't look like PKF likes Dropbox.

Got links working. See above.

jadog - 5-11-2014 at 08:50 AM

Links not working for me.

g00fba11 - 5-11-2014 at 08:54 AM

Hmmm. Tested several androids and iPads that are not on my Dropbox account with no problems.

Anyone else having issues with the links?

Let me test on macs and PC.

carltb - 5-11-2014 at 10:08 AM

my pc's working fine

g00fba11 - 5-11-2014 at 11:34 AM

jadog, hope you got a chance to watch carltb's video's of a 15m Phantom in action.

hope you found a device those links work on. Had several other people try them and as carltb states, they appear to be working for everyone else.

Hmmm......

g00fba11 - 5-11-2014 at 08:15 PM

Sale is pending on these.

you are linking to download versions of the images, don't have anything after the .jpg

g00fba11 - 6-11-2014 at 08:39 AM

Thanks for the heads up on the links, but with a sale pending not going to worry to much about that now.

Will have to work on that though for pics of my coyotes on another thread!

jadog - 6-11-2014 at 10:22 AM

Links are working for me. Figured out that it was a browser issue.
