12m Flexifoil Sabre 2 Foil RTF $550 SOLD


Selling off our 12m Sabre 2. RTF with the 5th line Sabre 2 bar. (Early AXIS bar?) Rasta colorway.

No holes, never been in sand, no repairs.

I did resize 2 bridal lines slightly to increase the turn rate. Otherwise bone stock.

Nice kite, tons of grunt. Decent light wind kite as it is a big kids kite. Super floaty lift and glide. Stable and suprisingly good and swallowing gusty winds. Great depower range.

Has a 5th line safety, leashless set up. I really thought about keeping the bar and lines for other kites but I'd probably never use it so I'll sell the 12m complete. The 5th line works awesome. Better than the 5th line on our Psycho 4. Really allows you to test your skill in higher winds than you would normally ride a 12m in.

Includes bar, lines and backpack. Great kite for the $.

Good description here...

Will consider partial trades. Maybe something in the way of a mountain board or Arcs. PM me with an email and I'll send pix.

Ive flown this series kite (2 week demo) in the 7.5m via coastalwindsports.......................sweet kite, with plenty of depower and superb safety system not to mention Flexi quality. I often wonder why Flexi stopped making this kite and thinking the UK landboard market demanded LEIs..................too bad awesome kite!

I would have loved to ride the 7.5. I really like the bar set up and the 5th line works great. Way better than simply a leash on the breake line and better depow than the OZ relaunch and ride set up IMO. Too many times I popped the hat on the Frenzy in high winds and still had to fight the kite.

I like the tunabilty as well. You can really tweek it to your tastes which is great. And you're right, great build quality.

I really like the Sabre but she has to go. Someone needs to be getting some use out of her.

Does anybody know how it pulls compared to a 10.5 Blade 3?
