First thing one notices when you get your Samurai is the quality pack it comes in. I think to myself, if this is what the pack looks like I can't wait to get to the actual kite. Pulling out and setting up really is a breeze (forgive the pun). When they say "ready to fly" they mean it. Everything is easily unpacked and labeled to set up for the first time out in the field, not setting up at home for hours first.
Putting this up it just amazed me at the stability and pull for a 2M kite. After a few hours of just mild scudding around, we moved off to a larger area and pulled out the landboard, at a mild breeze (blowing about F2) it generated enough power to move pretty well, definately not a trick kite in lower winds but skimmed across the grassy park after you got goin.
All for all you'll spend more on the Ozone than a Rhombus or Flexifoil but in my opinion its totally worth it. The construction seems VERY solid, easy packing up with a little velcro enclosure for the bridle lines. This also makes for a great unpacking experience when you lay it out for the next venure.
