Thanks for the reply. I am 170lb and 6' so 3m octane might be a little too small to pull me on a mountain board. Does Buster soulfly come with bar or handler? Isn't bar better for mountainboarding so you can have one hand open? I am interested in PKD so far. I am really new to finding the right kite so except a lot of questions from me.

Still looking for more opening offer/suggest.

Yes I think that the 4.4 would be a better size to bad the Octane wasn't a 6m ,I sent back a U2U so maybe we can work something out.

Maybe the 6.6m flexifoil blade is the one you should look at.

All three kites that I have to offer are on handles .Riding your ATB with a control bar or handles is pilot preference .I rode with handles all the time except when using water kites on my mountain board.

3m will move you in 12-14mph winds on a board. 175 and rolled with a 3meter. Handles or bar is personal choice. Learn on handles and move to bar later. Handles will give you more control of the kite but bar pulls form the harness instead of the arms. I think easier to lean back with the bar and one hand flying has it advantages. Most bar kites are very powerful so make sure you master flying before moving to a larger kite above 7m

FLEXFOIL 7m Bullett
Peter Lynn 2.6m Viper S
Peter Lynn 12m Vortex
Pansh 5m ACE
GI Flight 93

Other 2 and 4 line non power kites
