do your research while you are learning how to fly that kite... many different ways you could go...
I'd go a size larger or go depower.
figure out what you want to do? jump? cruise? buggy? water? and buy the kite that will help you get there.
also find out what the winds are in your area all year round, you'll want something that will make the best of what you have to work with.
fixed bridles, flying static, been two years now... ??? folks must be wondering....
sting 1.7, dp power 2.5, crossfire 3.2, ace 5, blade iv 6.5, ace 8, ace 12...
also a couple of arcs, 12 syn and 12 phanny, but i\'m not yet up to speed on them.
