Flexifoil Rage 3.5 - Sold Out?
Well, after pulling the trigger in a new Flexifoil Rage 3.5, I just received word from Flexifoil that they are out of stock and that I would be given
a refund. Bummer!
They said "sometime in early 2017"
So, what other kite would give me a similar experience? I want a kite to learn on but also to challenge me.

There are several great kites but I recommend buster soulfly pro. Check with bigkid and see if he has any.

Ok... Not trying to get power hungry, but is there a big difference between the 3.3 and 4.4 Soulflys?

imo, the 3.3 covers a broad wind range, you will learn kite control have a great high wind kite and become a true pilot....the 4.4 will just kill you
unless your rather biggish

Thanks! I am definitely leaning heavily toward the 3.3. I have a 2.5M 2-line now, so not totally new, but know that I have more to learn vs what I
know.
Factor that lead me to ask - I live in PA and the winds are typically on a he lower end.
Factor that has me leaning toward the 3.3 - I weigh about 155.

So what do you really think?:D
Thanks for the good words guys. 
I am working on getting another shipment of the busters, not sure on the time table.
I have the 4.4m's in stock but not sure of the 3.3's. Need to dig a hole in the kite trailer to find the new kite pile. Seems to be a little more sand
from the East Coast then I remember. 
Appex buggy, Libre hardcore buggies.
Flexboardz. Blokarts.
PKD Century Soulflys. NPW's. Nasa Stars.
A few other less flown oddballs,
Line sets from 10" to 328" or 2m to 100m.
worlds only AQR that works.
North American distributor for PKD.
