13m V2 problem
I have my 13m v2 as my smallest kite, and she has been great. Very dependable kite and with my favorite colors. I know most people who have them
don't ever sell them. I think I want to keep this kite forever, but with my recent sponsorship from Peter Lynn I'm considering selling it so I can
upgrade my smaller kite from a venom2 to a new charger. I like how the v2 accelerates helping jumps boost high. but with a charger in a similar size
and with a quicker turning speed, i might as well upgrade so I can progress quicker. My 13 has been my higher wind kite for awhile now..;.......
So I guess my delimma is, do you guys think I should sell it and upgrade, or should I just wait for awhile?
give me your thoughts, and input, and opinions

I have yet to fly a Charger so take my comments with a grain of salt...
I would keep it...love my V2 13 in high winds....I heard the Chargers are really fast....I prefer a kite that turns a little slower as the wind speed
increases, but that's just me. And please note, I am not saying the V2 13 turns slow ;-)

I know what you mean. I kinda don't want to get rid of it, but i'm a little greedy and want new stuff at the same time. I love a super fast turning
kite though. I like to jump high. I really appreciate the input though. I'm just on the fence with my greed i guess

i have a VII 13m as well ... and charger 15. i consider them nearly equal in power out put.
i would not sell mine. very stable def more range on the topend.
i can run this kite in 25 plus without a thought. the CH15 can not be so predictable in higher ranges. when you get the CH you will not use the
13 as much, promise

my c15 is in the mail. but the other day--my 3rd session on it---i glew my c12 into the water breaking one spar and bending the other. the c12 is
the fastest kite i've ever flown and i love it! so with the c12 in the truck, i launched my modded v1/13. it flew so slow and was so un responsive
compared to my c12 that i took the kite down and quit for the day. i'm keeping it only for emergencies.

yeah, i think i'm going to keep mine forever. its so predictable. there is much sentamental value to it, since it is the kite that helped me get
good enough to be sponsored by peter lynn. i just got my team stuff last week, i can't wait for some good wind to take my new charger out
