lisamaria Posted September 13, 2003 Report Posted September 13, 2003 i am looking for a kite smaller than my 4.5 bullet for use wih my mtb in stronger wind conditions looked at the 3.5 bullit 3.0 blade 3.5 fusion 3.0 ozone ld does anybody have suggestions to help me out cheers:confused: :confused: Quote
rjw Posted September 13, 2003 Report Posted September 13, 2003 mate of mine has a 3m blade 3 which is lovely to fly. i use my 3.5 bullet in quite a lot of wind and nock my girlfriends 2.5 when it blowing a complete hooly. general consensus on the forum seems to be that blades are better than bullets for boarding as the give more lift, but there are plenty of people, including me who use bullets.

jamie828 Posted September 13, 2003 Report Posted September 13, 2003 i would prolly go for the 3m blade 2 as it is a great all rounder jamie Quote

Yeah but that`s not the only reason.... I`ve had a back 2 back session with a 4m BII and a 4.5 Bullet in wind`s around 17mph and the Bullet just couldn`t compete.. It`s probablly a great buggy kite but it`s far from the best for Mboarding.. http://www.flexifoil.com/community/forums/images/icons/dance.gif Get on down... Quote
Boffy Posted September 13, 2003 Report Posted September 13, 2003 I had the same problem I had a 4m Blade II which I used for buggying and got an ATB. I then wanted a kite for bigger gusty conditions. Yesterday I got a 3m Ozone Little Devil. Took it out today and according to Edinburgh METAR it was blowing at 17kts (thats 19.5 mph!) It was brilliant. A bit scary to fly the Blade but the LD was very quick through the sky and I did get some air accidentally. They are stable and do not give the same lift as a blade but I'm glad I got mine!! The 9.5 Frenzy is next!!!!!!!! :D Quote
