Flysurfer SA2.5 19m


After getting my Speed3 21m, I have to sell my old beloved SA2.

This is the SA2.5 with the second generation skytex fabric. Original carbon bar, and FDS installed.

Great condition, with two repairs. A 40" tear on the top skin, after landing kite on a turtle nest marker, very unnoticeable professional repair. Second one, is a ~2 inch tear in one of the internal tensioner straps. None of the repairs have any effect on the flight of the kite.

Kite flies perfectly, flying from 4kts....riding with a door from 6, and jumping high from 10...I set the mixer a bit towards stability. No porosity issues. All lines, and mixer still in great condition. Just changed depower line on bar, to a thicker amsteel with a core.

This kite is still the killer for ultra lightwind, the only kite that can even compete is the Speed3 21. Without this kite, all summer would've been unkitable.

Price-$1200 shipped in the continental US.

Heres some more pics http://picasaweb.google.com/syuzhak94/SA2?feat=directlink

Looks like it has FDS in the pic too - good selling point :thumbup:

Say, how does it compare to the S3 21?

bought my 12m S2 from S............buy with confidence...............you ole rascal.........................didnt realize you had one of these.............................the 21 SA3 was a reactionary design due to the power and performance of the 19m SA2 vs lack of on the 19m SA3..............the only kite Ive flown that comes close on low end is the 13m EH Ovando..............

great kite and seller.........................:thumbup::thumbup:

Glad you enjoyed the 12m!

The 21m feels very similar to the old 19m, but with all cons eliminated. More direct turning, more depower, more pop, basically same amount of low-end but a more fun kite. Def a great kite made even better, and old SA2 19m is better than the new Speed3 19.

Mood: wanted: wind please

[*] posted on 17-1-2011 at 09:41 PM


in about 10mph on land in grass I am getting overpowered on my 2.5 at my skill level. On the beach at about 8mph on the packed sand I was going too fast for comfort again for my skill level. I almost never fly overpowered though. To whoever gets this it is the ultimate low wind kite. It will redefine your low wind days.

19 meters of skytex fabric brings, must
be balls to the wall mind-blowing

When we had our meet-up here the wind was almost so light you could hardly feel it on the back of your neck. The GPS still logged me over 30 km/h. This kite may not get used much but when it's "the right kite" its surreal.

FDS is the full depower system or 5th line safety...................deploy safety, kite folds in half and falls out of the sky. Skytex is the material the kite is made from.....................just a whisker heavier than the original siberfil material but more durable...................

THIS KITE IS FOR SALE! i thoroughly enjoyed this kite all last summer. I got 22 sessions on it where my Charger would not begin to play. For my 205 lbs, 8 mph was my minimum for staying up wind. the kite is the same as what Stan sold with the exception --i added a new spare parts line and there is one small tear 1-2 inch long repaired with sail tape. $1000 takes it. 912-573-9240 i am only selling this because i found a used speed 21. or email to kitesurfer2@comcast.net
