6.5m ish
im looking for a new kite around the 6.5m range. I like the look of the blade IV but at the moment its a bit out of my price range.. i have also been
looking at the Radsail savage.. im wondering if it would be a worthwile buy as its almost half the price of a blade .. Its a fairly new kite and am
wondering if anyone here has flown one and weather they would recomend it?... Or should i just wait the extra few months for a blade??
i should also mention i am looking into getting a buggy in the near future.. and is there any other kites you guys would recomend
Also when i get a new kite would it be woth getting some 40m lines as i allready have some 25m so would be able to change to suiting conditions. And
the same situation with a bar?

For the buggy consider the new Crossfire II from HQ available any day now. Ground-adjustable bridle makes it versatile and a good buggy engine on
low-lift setting. Just over $500 for a 6.5 is good for that size and great quality/ performance. $200 less than a Blade and $170 less than a Peter
Lybb Reactor or Flexifoil Rage.
We flew a prototype last year and liked it a lot. Fast and stable.
