Flexifoil Sting vs Ozone Samurai 2

vjanda - 1-8-2016 at 02:25 PM

I sold my Sting 2.4 and want something a bit faster and more challenging.
Found a s/h Samurai 2 3m for sale.
Does anyone know how they compare?
From what I can tell they both have low aspect ratios of around 3.2.
Do I wait for a Rage instead?
Thanks

I suggest a Rage based on your goal for more speed and a bit more challenge. Maybe a 2.5 to start. It's medium AR . I have the Sting 3.3, and find it to not handle at all as well as the Rage.

Thanks!
What do you make of the Blurr?
Quite a few of them around.
Would they be more fun for static flying?

I have never flown a Blurr, but from what I have read about them, this may be a good kite for you if you have easy access to one. Again, I would start with the smaller size on a light wind day, and for general static flying, you would probably like the handles over the bar.
