This was my first power kite as i asked the local kiters which kite would best suite a beginner to the sport and after hearing great reviews of the kite i bought one for myself. Over all this kite has great build quality and great looks(looking past the drawstring bag). My first use of the kite was with an adult experienced kiter in a good 15kt wind. The kite easy flew straight up to the zenieth with the experienced kiter sliding at least 4-5 feet, after a quick run-down of what to do the controls were passed to me. After getting use to the powerfull pull of the kite and the small levitating boost off the ground i decieded to see what the kite can do and with a gentle pull and the handles the kite made a swift swoop through the power zone and i let out a silent scream when i found my-self getting hammered with sand as i got dragged down the beach. After owning the kite for around 8 months i have taken it out in winds around the 30kt mark, i weigh 50kg and in 30kts was jumping over 6feet in the air(30kts might be a bit to strong for the kite.....but it is AWESOME fun). Over all this kite is great fun for the beginner kiter in light to moderate winds but can still give the intermediate kiter a white knuckle ride into the air and along the beach in 25kts+, i have tried this kite in a buggy and it goes great with good speed and is very forgiving it can also be used for landboarding and bodysurfing(it isn't water re-lauchable). It is great value for money and great fun....highly recomended!!!!. By : dicko
