Sleeving

[David M]

Hey guys,does anyone know where I can buy sleeving to make up my own lines

[matzelkite]

I have two places that I recommend - try Jason at Briskites or go to midwest kites in Iowa [uS ] you can buy as many metre's as you like and they sell the tool to make sleeving easy. Lyn and Richard are nice but expect about a two weeks for delivery and they are extremely fair with postage.

Cheers

Thanks Steve for all your info

You can buy blue line for about 70 cents for 10 feet or a line set for about 8 dollars [ US ], I have been testing many line sets for about twelve months and for the money and quality of build the blue line is great. Don,t expect it to last as long as the euro lines but value for money over twelve months the blue line wins in my opinion. Midwest is a value for money if you buy in bulk, allowing for postage, but sorry Australia kite suppliers don't supply goods at a reasonable price except for Briskites- not bias to Briskites and I buy kites from all over the world and at the higher end it's all about choice.
