So, a few weeks back I got an email from one our members asking if I wanted his old Boxer. Of course I said yes, "free"kites are good kites. So it wound up being $35 but I mean for what I got, thats amazing. Can't complain.

Pile or ripstop...I wonder what this will become......?

2m Junkie, unbridled, for now....

Bag+bar and lines+leash (first 5th line!!!)

Kite layed out

Kite w/ struts inflated, (kite came w/ double action pump too!)

Kite pumped!!



Thanks again Steve!!! You rock man! Cuz I don't have much of a use for it maybe I can start a pass the Junkie....I'll see.

I run a 12m boxer with my atb at the beach. Just got a MBTcore 16. these c-kites super stable and have power and grunt o'plenty. bladders can be a problem just update then you are good.
here's a 6:30 start low tide 3hr session (the blow across GA last week).[img]null[/img]

Good for you Steve

NPW is very deserving of your gift !
Watch out Naish. I think the old boxer is up for a total re-design :wink2:
What size is it ?

Man, this is a fun kite to fly, one or the farthest over struts leaks slowly, but enough for a 1 hour kite session, I'l get on that as soon as I can, and it still flies fully delfated. And man, it is crazy stable, I could go for a bit more power out of it, but i can see if I can lengthen my front lines a bit. The fifth line is really nice, $UPER easy to relaunch! Wish I had thought to bring my ATB up today, I was PERFECTLY powered!!! :flaming: Maybe tomorrow, and it turns SOOOO fast!! faster than my 8m! I love it! Even got a buddy on it, picked up my trainer kite, tried to steer it like a car for about 2 minutes, then started whipping it all over the window, he says "WOW! man this thing really pulls!" I get this smirk on my face and reply, "put on my harnes" he's hooked now. :P flew for 30 mins, never crashed it, and was jumping by the end. :D THANKS STEVE!!!!

they will fly with the just the center struts up but get flutter but not much performance lost, the u stick valves will come handy most leaks are valve stem adhesion points, i have fixed alot with just rubber cement not the heptane solvent type but the toluene type seem to fair better

The Boxer's were very smooth kites. Used to own a couple of them :o
