Hey Everyone!

Well I haven't even flown my 5m Haka yet and I am already looking at getting an Imp 2.5 for the higher wind days. Has anyone flown one these? How does handle etc? Any info would be great....

Thanks!

There are a couple IMP's on the market now. Ozone has just released 3 new models for us to play with. I recommend the IMP Quattro. This is the new 4 line IMP and it comes in the 2.5 size you are looking at. Great kite! I had the chance to fly the Quattro when it was demo'd down here at Ivanpah during NABX. I was very impressed with it. It should work great for you as a higher wind kite and fit nicely in with your 5m Haka. You will probably want to get the 3.5m IMP Quattro as well to fill in the gap you will have between the Haka and the 2.5 although the 3M Haka would be a better fit, especially once you fall in love with the performance the Haka gives you. 2.5 IMP Quattro, 3m & 5m Haka - perfect quiver of kites.

I hear ya! However I don't want to spend that kind of cash! I was just looking for a great 2 liner that will give me a work out! :D I was trying to stay in the $150 price range.....
