Wanted: 12m Cronix Complete


I'm pretty sure this is the kite I want next, however no one seems to be selling one used right now. I know I saw one for $750 and am now wishing i'd grabbed it up because it looks like someone else did. If anyone knows where I can get one for cheaper than they are new let me know.



Water: 2013 Edge 7m, Cronix 12m, 2013 Flite 17m
Land: Peak 2 6m & 9m, Speed 4 8m

Yeah, no used ones up at flysurfer-usa.com and I can't afford any new kite from Flysurfer.

Heya. I have one that I'd be willing to sell. It's a 2014 12m and I bought it brand new. I've ridden with it about 6 times (2 water, 2 land, 2 snow). It's a really fun kite, but it is really fast & turns fast. For me, this is awesome on snow & land... on water it's a little disconcerting; I'm trying to change to something a little more... boring... in the 12m range.

Anyway, how does $850 shipped (ConUS) sound?

Here are some pics:

Also, here's a really boring video of me flying it whilst landboarding. Wind was super light and a little gusty.



Send me a PM if you're interested.



Cheers,
Dave

Huh, I definitely couldn't find those despite some searching. Proletariat's seems like a better deal though. Now I just have to wait until it gets here on Wednesday.

Yeah, me too. Looking to see where around here I could fly it.

Have one soccer field with enough wind to keep a kite in the air, but no room for anything but some tame static flying.

Currently seeing how far I would have to drive to get to a place where I could learn to kiteboard. Really excited for it to arrive.

It's here!

Now I just need somewhere I can safely learn how to fly this thing. At this size I'm thinking it might even work with the winds we get at Candlewood lake.

How you liking it, rofer? I ended up getting a LF Envy to replace it and I'm afraid it's not as good as the Cronix for our conditions. No big deal... Every time I buy a new kite I learn something :). You having fun on that bad boy?

Man, I can't believe you ditched a Cronix to get yourself an Envy. I see a balance in trading a Speed4 for Rally - I just keep both of 10m of Rally and of 10m Speed4 myself. But hold on that Rally, that is a perfect kite.

Hardly got to fly it. I was just in Aruba, but a 12m seemed like a bit too much to bring there so I got an 8m Speed 4. Definitely intend to take it out to Lake Erie first chance I get though.
