Sweet! Welcome to PKF waybeyond. Hope you stay around longer than to just sell those beauties.

I've got a complete quiver of NS3s so I'm not personally in the market for your particular kites, but I'm curious as to why they are quad handles as compared to the more standard 3-line Born-Kite bar set ups. This may be just something I don't know about the earlier STARS as I only got into Born kites this year. Did the NS2s come this way or did you modify them by splitting up the bridle lines? What do you do with the center yellow line?



Born-Kites:
RaceStar+ (3.0m, 5.0m, 7.0m, 9.0m)
NasaStar-5 (2.5m, 4.0m)
NasaStar-4 (2.5m)
NasaStar-3 (3.2m)

Ozone kites:
Access (6.0m)

Flysurfer Kites:
Peak-5 (2.5m)

Buggy:
Peter Lynn BigFoot+ nose & tail; midsection VTT rail & seat kit; home-brewed AQR

Cheers Windstruck! I split up the bridle lines, but they can easily be put back to a 3 or 2 line setup. I have just tied up the middle line. For me you get much more control out of using them as 4 line kites. Its really cool that they are customisable like this.

straight off the bridle. Seemed to work well, they are pretty stable.

I was afraid of that. Did you ever try long line or short line? They are more awesome on some lines.

Why no shipping to the US (if I read the eBay listing right)?

looks like 4m and 7m sold and the reserve not met on the 2.5. 2.5 is a great size to have on hand. very inexpensive but effective high wind engine
