outlaw buggy

ssayre - 22-11-2014 at 10:56 AM

Just wondering if anyone knows if these are being produced and if you can get one in the states. Not that I can afford one right now, but they look like they would be an awesome light weight rugged buggy for fields.

Most likely have to buy it direct and have it shipped: http://www.kitesports.co.nz/collections/skate-snow/products/...

I would like to fly one while using a FS Outlaw, I think a cowboy hat and bandanna might magically appear with that much outlaw going on...

EW that would ba a cool combo. I don't see the FS outlaws come up very often (or never). Do they have a cult following like the phantom 1's

You've got all the cool stuff cheezy!

I wonder what happened. Was there a ban against all cool graphics at some point?

If you look really closely at the pic Cheezy posted you can see all the stitch work involved in the Outlaw graphic.

Manufacturers can always silk screen stuff, but that's not the same as stuff eventually peels.

Die/laser cut panels are forever beautiful, but ratchet up the production costs.

Eventually it comes down to dollars and cents.

"Whenever you have to ask "Why?"... the answer is inevitably "Money."

Not sure how the graphics were applied (suspect silkscreened), but the Wainman Rabbit Gang kites always had cool graphics, even though they have kind of "dumbed down"/homogenized the graphics for RG 3.0


Rabbit Gang 2.0 had more personality and whimsy....




In the slightly ominous vein of the Phantom and the Outlaw, Wainman also had the Maniac in two color schemes:

check out the stitches on this one of a kind custom Rev.
I was thinking about selling it until I took it out of the bag... :evil:

One more kite that has sewn in graphics. In the video on this page; you can really see them when the sun shines through the canopy on the close ups:
