Radsail Radsail Pro II Handles (w/Line Wrapping end caps!)
acey_666 commented on Somoney1600949567's review in Other
I got a set of these on my rad 5m & they are fantastic. I shoved them on my blade 3- 8.5m the other week with a strop line & they did the job. The easy wind system is amazing unlike flexi's just wrap them around the handles, perhaps flexi should take a leaf out of someone else's book for a change. i think they score 11/10!! -
tied a strop line to the handles & used the harness over the weekend & it made a big change, the kite was 10 times faster & more responsive to use & the ease of use was fantastic, my arms did not want to be ripped off, so get a strop line & harness...

we have taken it out in 15mph & then the winds picked up to 40mph. Dont get me wrong but it was scary as anything, but fun as well at the same time, Got some really good air tho.

1st off this is not a kite for a beginner at all, it pulls like a train & yes i was shocked for the £170 price tag from ebay, thought it was going to be like another beach shelter with a few strings attached, but no it was not. This kite works well in winds from 4mph of what is a challenge to see how long you keep it in the air to a good 40mph, of when if lifts you up, drags you around & basically hurts you. Its a stable all round good kite, I have use it for jumping & have not boarded nor buggied with it, but I would say it would suit the buggy a lot more than a board. I have use the handles that came with it & I know people have moaned about them, but get a life, they are fantastic & some might say that they are better than felxi's version, as in strength. The lines seemed a bit plastic to me compared to other kites but they have NOT stretched at all & have had quite a good thrashing over these past few months down the beach. As for the kite material its really crisp & keeps shape when its laid on the floor, just needs a bit of wind & its stands upright waiting to pull you about. The bag is good that it came in, there is plenty of pockets to put all different things into & with a few holes on the bottom of it so sand can escape. Just a shame I put too much in the front pocket & broke the zip but for kite killers, gloves & steaks is a good place for that. As for the handling, its so easy & smooth to turn & the response time of it is a hell of a lot faster than a blade. Its never luffed on me while I have been jumping, it just re-inflates instance & the power just picks up again. I would say get a strop strap & a harness to use this kite, because after 5mins your arms are now aching & burning, but sense would tell you that. The speed of the kite is quite fast & good fun on a 7mph windy day, because you can do some good really good tricks, like a stunt kite & its not ragging your arms off either. You do have to go out in strong winds really to get some jump out of the monster, but they are worth it. wanna know any more because I can talk all day about this thing just mail me with your questions. my rating of this kite is... Power 7.5 / 10 Speed 6 / 10 Easy of use 8 / 10 Handling 8 / 10 Fun factor 10/10 Value 10 / 10 By : acey_666
