it was showcased at the Fano event.

on a side note, our friend Faster Arie broke his hand doing a highspeed tandem run.

Nice looking kite... it looks like what would have happened if the montana was a PL design, well expect it would be more pastel. I just hope the bottom of the production kite is not pure white. Can't wait to hear about performance and price! Has anyone tried this kite yet?

looks slick!
Im with arkay tho, hopefully the bottom isnt left white

OK Tim, pony up! What's the scoop?

HQ-Powerkites - 25-6-2009 at 02:55 PM

Well, this is all brand-new. I know as much as you do Angus. I guess as soon as Invento releases more info, I'll be one of the first who gets it... lol... I hope so...

Any news will be posted here. Keep hanging in.

Don't feel bad Tim, Flexifoil just totally messed up the release of the Blade V. They can't announce their way out of a brown paper bag. Their front line staff are clueless. At least you have been telling us that the race kite has been in the pipeline for some time now, and have always been way up front on product announcements to your dealers.

for those that dont like white bellys ... its WHITE

the kite name is on the inside???

comes in 7 sizes (3.4, 4.2, 5.5, 6.7, 8.2, 10.5, 12.0), i a bit odd for a Race kite series. The smallest being 3.4, that totally must be a german thing, since the Nitro Evo II's smallest available size is the 3.1m and probably so with the Xenon

it looks like one colour one size ... Im totally against that, especially from a competitive aspect, the last thing I would need is someone knowing what size I'm using.

order now, since they will be Available in late spring/early summer 2010.

comes at Kite Only.

But, but, but... Black flies so much better :sniff:

Never really thought about the competitive edge of obscuring the kite size, but I guess that makes sense.

But you should be ok with being over powered with a smaller kite.
The face plant is not nearly as brutal!! :P

i can assure you, the HQ Prodigy is a high speed, quick turning smooth kite!
I have been lucky enough to try a couple.
