Rush 3/4 vs Rush 4 Pro


So im still new and learning so bare with me, But what are the Difference between these two kites, I understand the Pro has a 3rd line which makes it easier to re-launch?

What else? is the pro worth the extra money?

The third line is also a safety attached to a kite killer - let go and the kite comes right down.

basically i found the rush for 150$ flat, while the pro goes for $230ish, is it worth the extra cash? I cant just attach a 3rd line to the regular rush?

I have a Rush 4 Pro and it's a great kite. The safety third line makes it a snap to land and relaunch, for a few extra bucks I think it's worth it.

i started w/ the 2 line 350...great to learn with and so much fun......but it was my only kite for a long time and eventually was flying it in 25+ winds,,,, like a lot...... testing its (my)limits....if i had a 3rd line to start and stop it things would have been eaisier....eventuallt it did superman me on its last dash thru the power zone as it crashed leading edge first........frigin glorious death of that foil.......i loved that foil.

The Pro is the way to Go


I bought the Pro three line for my wife to learn to buggy. The safety of the kite killer line and relaunch have made the learning experience faster, safer and more enjoyable. I would recommend this kite over the two line.

yep i think ill be getting the pro found a good deal online, going to wait a few more days to see if i can find something else, found the rush 4 pro 350 online for 220 bucks, going to see if a store near by will match the price,

unless i can find something else used for cheaper,

i saw the rush 4 used or the rush 3 for 150$ but it seems the pro is worth the extra
