  1. OK peeps i am selling my Apex to put towards another inflatable and Kitesurf board. Looking for £200 and it can be seen/tried at Lodge Moor, Sheffield most Thursday evenings. Can be sold as a package with my top of the range Dakine Fusion Seat Harness (large with added bar pad for extra comfort) for an extra £40 as you will need a harness to use it but you may already have one or want a waist harness (harness can be seen in the pics below but for info it is this one - http://www.tkc.tw/shop/images/dakine%20seat.bmp ). It is 10 months old and in great condition (still a bit crispy) bar is grubby but has no damage or wear, lines are still great. The foil it self is a bit grubby in places (I have cleaned it from time to time but i don't like the idea of cleaning it all the time or scrubbing it to get every mark out) but it is in excellent condition, no rips, tears nicks or anything. The kite itself is very stable and is comparable Ozone Access. It is not very lifty (but you can still jump with it just not very high) but it is very "grunty". HQ market it as a landboard/snowkite. It would be an excellent all rounder depower and a good one kite solution for a beginner depower rider. Its best flown between 12-25mph though it will go a bit lower and higher though i wouldn't recommend anything higher than 20mph until you are used to it. Fully depowered it feels like a 3-4m foil and fully powered about a 5-6m foil. Just remember it still has 7.5m worth of material so in stronger winds it can be a handful.

  2. Thanks for the constructive post and please feel free to buy the 10m Access, but it is at least 2 years older, "well used" and has had £100 worth of repairs. My kite is in excellent nick and less than a year old, with nice fresh lines. That said £100 for a well used Access I is still a fair price but please don't thread hijack
