The day did cometh!
The story so far....
I had a taste of a 4M Exit in some decent winds and ABSOLUTELY loved it.
I then had to go away to work for 6 very very long weeks. While I was away I researched and dreamed and read and checked and came to the conclusion
that a 3.5M Rage was a good place to start...
2 Weeks ago I ordered and had it delivered to a trusted friends house... Trusted in that, in as many teasing photo's and taunts he sent me I knew he
wouldn't fly it until I got home.
After an eventful trip home from South America I finally got to fly this afternoon...
:D:D:D:D:D
That is all I have to say :D

That's awesome man. I'm waiting for my 4m Beamer V to be shipped from Coastal Wind Sports. It's my first power kite so I know exactly how you must've
felt in South America! Have fun!!

We've got some high winds here today, I've put the rage back in its bag! Something was gonna give and I'm pretty sure it was going to be me!
Still buzzing and totally understand how you end up with so many kites... lol
