We got it up for a few minutes. winds were light around 10mph. It seemed alittle lufty at the edge of the window, but then we a had a couple minutes
of approx. 15 mph and it turned into a different kite. I was alot more stable and seemed to have the pull.
Give us a few more times on it in more wind conditions and we will have a review. keep in mind this is still the proto, so things may change in the
final product. I will pass it around after we have more time on it.

Oh man, forgive beat me to it! Can I be second?
Never really thought about buying a pansh but I would be very interested in flying this one. Can't wait to read your review.
Can you post retail prices or is that against forum rules?
Also, maybe some more pics of it in flight and the inlets...

I don't think prices are available yet...
Soon as we get it out again we'll get more photos and a good review... I can tell you it seems that it's going to be positive, based on the time flown
already... probably lil criticisms here and there... I did notice it seems to have a narrow wind range (not a bad thing), but I'm under the impression
that most race kites do...

I have been part of this testing crew and have seen how this kite has grown. Its a nice bit of kit for very little money and this seems to scare some
of the larger companies. I have been one of the main test pilots and can tell you that this kite is pretty fast. It holds its own against Centuries,
Razors and Yaks. unfortunately when I ran against the new Combats I was in a less racier buggy to compare. This kite has takem me over the 50mph
mark and it still had some more to give with a touch of trimming and tuning. Dont knock it till you try it:singing:

Very well put Bladerunner, I agree whole heartedly...
Lately seeing some of the business practices of the larger companies, Pansh has a fantablious customer service and they seem to always have their

Very true ... but not very many people on this forum get to enjoy them, since most members are US based. I hope to help with this even if its on my
dime.

Hi Dino ... on PF we have several Pass the Pansh Sprints (previously know as "racekite w5-5") in transit. One (or possibly two) will be destined
for "Americas".
We've a 4m Ace PtP working its way round Canada at the moment too.
PS - Nice sigie KB - shouldn't it read "Pansh Race Team - Euro Captain..."?

Thank you andya for setting me straight.
I think these folks would love to give the sprint a try ... I planned to pass my proto around, but it is going to be awhile before I'm done with it,
especially with the limited time I have had in the buggy lately.
