Darkmiss Posted June 19, 2003 Report Posted June 19, 2003 If anyone has read the new Power Kite Magazine on the inside front cover, there is an advert fow Flexifoil and at the top there is a picture of a stack of kites but each one has the colour of a countrys flag. Does anyone know where these may be baught from ? Quote
HD462 Posted June 19, 2003 Report Posted June 19, 2003 The ads a photo storyboard of Flexi through the years. Looking at where that pic is, it looks like they were made in the early 80's. So probably not available now, unless you can find them 2nd hand or do a special order. That microlight/paramotor/kite type thing next to it looks great though. Quote
Darkmiss Posted June 19, 2003 Author Report Posted June 19, 2003 I know that Andy, in the KiteStore in covent Garden, has a specialy made Black staker, with a skull with red eyes are there no other specail editions or designs to buy anywhere ? Quote
HD462 Posted June 19, 2003 Report Posted June 19, 2003 I know Flexi will make you anything you want, but it's a premium price. 15% extra on top of retail price I think. Quote
Draggin Posted June 20, 2003 Report Posted June 20, 2003 There was a guy at the Bristol Kite festival last year with about 20 stackers (or stacker look alikes) all stacked which were all flag of countries (might have even been all european, not sure). Unfortunately on the Sunday there was no wind so they never got in the air. Tim Quote
PHLI72 Posted June 20, 2003 Report Posted June 20, 2003 Darkmiss, There is a good picture of "The Euro Stack of 6' Flexifoils" on page 4 of The flexi book of power kiting but not a lot of info ie when/where. It does look cool though. I'd love a union jack one (naturaly first in the stack). The microlight type thingy was called "The windbag" and was a radio controlled "toy". Apparently it didn't sell to well when it was produced in the 80's, but there must be a few still out there, I spotted one going on E-bay a while back. PHLI72. Quote
