Flexifoil Kites
I own a 3.3 Flexifoil Sting and am looking for another Flexifoil kite. I am looking for maybe a 5.0?
Anyone have any suggestions?

Brad has 2 Flexifoil 4.5 Bullets here:
http://www.powerkiteforum.com/viewthread.php?tid=6587&pa...
One has never been flown and the other has been flown once (for which he has taken $50). Both are RTF.
The Bullets preceded the Rage, so it's a good transition from the Sting. The only nit is the mesh material on the Sting IIs are nicer than what is on
the Bullets.
Brad is great to deal with and ships quickly out of the state of LA.
ATB,
Sam

It might help people point you in the right direction better if you gave us a little more info. A particular model or what you want out of the kite
would be very helpful.
rage, blurr, blade, bullet, etc.
Flexifoils are excellent kites no doubt, but i wouldn't limit myself to only flexifoil if I were you. Again let us know what your interests are
(jumping, scudding, boarding, snowkiting, buggy, etc) and let or imaginations run wild with recommendations  |

this is from a satisfied blade owner --
it's not the kite, it's the flyer. you need skills before you need anything with power. the first kite you get will teach you far more about your
next kite than any amount of searching on the forum.
edit/ [sorry misread your post b4 posting! if you already have a kite and know it well, you should know where you want to go next... more info is
needed before you can get good advice!]
...put the two together and you're sorted!
fixed bridles, flying static, been two years now... ??? folks must be wondering....
sting 1.7, dp power 2.5, crossfire 3.2, ace 5, blade iv 6.5, ace 8, ace 12...
also a couple of arcs, 12 syn and 12 phanny, but i\'m not yet up to speed on them.
