FS Viper S 5.3m


I have a near new viper 5.3 for sale- here's the deal
Kite had maybe 10 flights (less than 10 hrs) on it and got hooked on another moving buggy which tore 2 interior supports and one small external panel- kite was repaired at fixmykite and the repair is guaranteed for life of kite.
I have been switching my entire FB quiver to the flexi rages and with the new 4.7 this one is just an overlap. I can sell it ko or rtf.
kite only $185.00
RTF - $235.00 shipped lower48

I will try to find or take some pics- if I remember right it is black yellow and green

RTF will include handles and lines at a minimum and might include bag, kS-P-A-M-L-I-N-K-s, and stake but not necessarily. Scott will chime in on that.

This is a great intermediate kite. What's your previous experience? The viper likes to fly forward in the window and likes active back line input to utilize it's full spectrum of grunt / power. fun kite

I had one of these exact kites for a while. I loved how it flew but just like Scott the Flexis were just something I loved, so I started to fill my quiver with them. I had more then one session with this kite... (both buggy and flying static) that brought a smile to my face. This kite was also somewhat forgiving if flying inland and not having those perfect "clean winds" you get on the beach.
You will be very happy with the way this kite handles and I don't think I've really read any bad comments about these. Everyone seems to enjoy the vipers in any size.

@CB- rtf will include everything that came with the kite other than stake unless I can find one. PL lines and handles, original kite bag / backpack, and I will also throw in a pair of kitekillers from flexifoil. Kite only is kite and bag. Its snowing today (was 65 yesterday) but will try for some pics this week.

Hi, my experience is likely beginner/novice to be honest. I bought and flew an HQ Rush 300 , skudding and jumping on the beaches of the outer banks and Va Beach for about 3 years when I snapped the lines for a third time and put it up out of frustration in '06 or '07. I plan to finally restring the 300 and get my legs back but i wanted to snag something bigger up early in the season while there was still plenty on the market.
