2m Reflex (video)


A few people having been asking about 2m Reflexes. Sky Country have said they will make 3 for the North American market. I hope I will be in the financial position to buy one. It should be a nice addition my quiver.

I ordered 3 different colors combinations:
white leading edge * orange lightening bolt * red tail,
blue * white * green,
red * black * red

First one will look like 4m Reflex (which is now in Vegas with Kent):

Last one will look like a Sky Country paraglider my husband used to fly:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mk7dhWg2H44&feature=chann...
(not a great video, but the idea of colors combination is there, except that bottom will be white)

Any other color suggestions?

And next everyone will want a 2.5...

Notice how there seems to be very small increments in the 2 - 4 meter ranges?

Hey Scudley, any word on delivery dates?

If the winds keep up like they have been lately i'm not going to be able to fly the Escape 3m to much....besides trying to rip my arms off , lift is becoming an issue!!! This is the first time that i've felt like a very small man on the end of a very large kite...lol.....:wee:

Does a buggy pack into a suitcase???:singing:

2 meters are almost ready :)
It has the same amount of cells - 34! So even it takes less material to make a kite, it requires more work.
But I am willing to promote it, it should be around US360.

I had not thought of that. So no you can't demo it. ;) Just kidding but I will be flying it before you do. There are some new Alascas here to. Not sure what sizes, I will be talking to her tonight.

Tonka, I will find out about the colours for you tonight and get back to you.

Tonka,
Kite on its way to you in ... Check U2U for shipping details. Have fun with it. You may get to fly it before I get to fly one. The weather out here looks like crop for the next couple of weeks, weeks! :(
