Thanks for looking out man. Messaged the guy for the UL... older post, but definitely worth a shot.
The summit poster had those on ebay for a bit and wasnt too flexible on the price.... which I totally understand as they are still new. Kinda weird
to sell them as a package...probably should at least mention a willingness to split?
Also, there is last years stock of the 15m summits around at several shops marked down. A savings of $450 compared to the 2015s, which isn't bad
considering its the same kite aside from the aesthetics and wicked sweet internal re-ride .
Currently deciding which size, 12 or 15, hmmmm.
I desire the 15m as it will be my low end wing. They are supposed to be relatively quick turners for their size as they were built for looping up
mountains.Trying to figure if i'd run into any gap in my wind range before the 9m frenzy kicks in. 6m is a bit of spread but..... The frenzy is pretty
grunty as you know and the Summits are supposed to have a good top end.... hoping they would meet in the middle and pair decently? Any thoughts?
All that being said, i'd take that 13m frenzy UL in a heart beat if I got the chance! Just so damn rare....

Mike from Lakawa just posted a couple of speed 3dlx in the for sale section.
The 15m would be a decent option @ $1000. If you don't nail anything down in the next month let us know as we'll be selling of our Ozone demos and
may have some big Frenzy and Summits left.

Thanks Chris.
Regarding the speed... definitely a great deal, though I am trying to stay open cell. So many of my riding sessions are squeezed into rather short
windows of time at work and low setup/tear down time is essential.
The Peak 12m had caught my attention to a point, but I think I'm looking something a little higher performance. It also seems like some of the bigger
key features of the Peak2 are wasted on me... being that I ride on a pretty steady wind beach making massive depower a bit unnecessary and a pack
size means nothing to me. The low end would the only plus.
Not to mention that I have pretty much drank the kool-aid and I'm rather partial to Ozone. :D

Ozone makes some damn fine Kool-Aid.
We've had a lot of success with the Peaks for sure. Awesome kite for the money and a real star in our conditions. But they don't have the premium
flight quality that you get with the kites you're in the market for.
Good luck with the search. :D
