Cirrus Pro


Hey Guys,

I've been looking at the cirrus pro, and i was wondering, whether any of you have tried it ? And what is it like ? The other thing is, if i weight 113 pounds and (52kg) would a cirrus pro 5m be a stupid idea or should i get a 4m. I've been using my brothers flexifoil stacker 6 ( i think its a six ) and so im now looking for some lift in kiting ( jumps ).

Cirrus pro sizes : 3m, 4m, 5m, 6m

thanks everyone

i looked at these kites when i was looking for my first kites.

i also asked on these forums, you may be able to find the post somewhere.

i have a couple of points

-dont start jumping until you are an experienced flyer. everyone will tell you this.

-as for the kite its self, i think there are better deals to be found by looking on ebay for second hand kites, with a better, more reputable badge

-if you are thinking about jumping you need a kite of a minimum 5m. other wise you will be picked up quick, and dropped just as fast.

just my opinion.

(see my other post in your other thread)

to be perfectly honest, im not sure. i have very little experience of jumping, and what experience i do have is on a 3m... not comfortable..

im just telling you what i have picked up from others in this forum. i would wait until you have some more info from more experienced members before you make your decision.

heres the link to the post i made a while ago, this has some opinions of the kite on it.

although, my link is about the 3m, i think the same rule apply.
