Once you get used to flying the kite on a harness you then need to get strapped onto the buggy. At first it felt really wrong but now i can't fly without being hooked in. I use a seprate three point belt attachment on a quick release. When I crash, its ditch the buggy first then sort the kite out. Its tricky at first but after a few crashies you get used to it. If you really want to jump get a flexi bug. Rad Sail is made out of micky mouse metal and will fold like a pipe cleaner if you land heavy, and you will land heavy. More so if you fly inland, the gusty chunky winds can lift you and then leave your kite depowered and falling 10 -15ft leads to some hefty landings. A good way to learn basic jumping skills is do do lots of static jumps concentrating on keeping the kite powered up for floaty solf landings. Lift is easy but its the hang time after the initial lift thats hard to maintain. Learn where the kite needs to be in the window and what direction it needs to be pointing at the different times of the jump sequence and then try it out in the buggy. Its about practice and confidence both in your skill and your equipment.

Looking for a bit of stability in life???? I have for sale or swap a like new, flexi bug wide axel. Will swap for standard axel. Its longer, wider, more stable. pm if interested. Looking for £80 or a swap. Its is in brand spanking condition and even has the flexi sticker still on it unmarked and has the bushes (plastic inserts where the bolts go-incase some of you think you get a free plant with the axel) happy flying

PMed you dude

PMed you mate. If I do not hear from you in the next few days I'll presume you have sold the kite else where. Cheers G

for sale. rad Sail pro2 6 meter. aka the tractor. She is a total bus but if your just wanting a kite to pull you around a field on your feet or in a buggy then its prefect and a cheap entry into the sport. Only selling as I'm into jumping my buggy and this kite does not turn fast enough for my needs. Kite only, the lines and handles it came with were poor and soon snapped so I fly it on flexi lines and handles from my blades (this made a big difference to how the kite flew in its original state). Also no back pack, I caught a strap on a door handle on the second day of owning the kite and it ripped beyond repair. Kite is white black and red. (the white is slightly soiled from a session involving a waterlogged muddy field, 25mph winds and rubber suits, even after showering with my kite and giving it a bath it still retained some colour form the field). I'm looking for £60 plus any postal costs. I paid £160 for it 18 months ago so its a bargin. I just need the space in my bag for other kites more suited to my needs. Any questions please ask. Pics to follow. Not had the kite out this year but I will try over the next few days.

is the 6.5 still for sale??

Hi, Its that blade still for sale and if so what colour is

Hi, Its that blade still for sale and if so what colour is it and is it RTF?? Cheers Dude

Cheers for the link guys, sounds like a good kite but the new blade I had a go with was crazy. Cant wait to get my own 6.5and scare myself silly jumping the buggy.

I hear about the release of an ozone haka, a free style kite. Does any one know much about the kite and how it stacks up against the mighty blade??
