conti_69 Posted November 22, 2003 Report Posted November 22, 2003 hey looking for a kite bigger than 3.0m for buggying and boarding could you give me advice on what kites and where to get from thanx Quote
rasga Posted November 22, 2003 Report Posted November 22, 2003 As soon as you go for the bigger kites you end up with lift, which depending what you want to do could pose a problem I.e A majority of buggiers stay on the ground (unless the OBE, or they want to do buggy jumps) And most boarders want a nice lifty kite, needless to say you dont want to be flying along in the buggy and initiate a buggy jump when you didnt want to! As to kites you have a choice of -Gin Yoz -Pkd Buster -Ozone Little Devil -Ozone Frenzy -Flexifoil Bullet -Flexifoil Blade -Advance Offroad. . . . and lot and lots and lots of others! Quote
Sparhawk Posted November 22, 2003 Report Posted November 22, 2003 Get a 5.5 Buster -Cheap as chips! - will get you moving in lower winds than the 3m you already have - and its SO easy to buggy with! Quote

anc Posted November 22, 2003 Report Posted November 22, 2003 my c-quad sometimes makes me obe when I don't want to. any ideas on how I could depower it when it starts pulling my but out the buggy? its really spooky when you're going fast (on concrete) and feel your butt leaving the buggy:S:S Quote
legoman#16 Posted November 27, 2003 Report Posted November 27, 2003 Hey conti wat is the elliot like i was thinking of bying one so wat is it like with buggies Quote
kam_kenneth Posted November 27, 2003 Report Posted November 27, 2003 i have heard good things bout the mac bego why dont you give that a try? Quote
Sylenz Posted November 27, 2003 Report Posted November 27, 2003 I used to put a 4m viper up before i got into wanting air, but some of the biggest jumps i have made in the buggy,have been with the viper!! I would say that all kites develope some lift,especially any over 4m. the problem then is, because they are not really designed to lift,you dont stay high very long and you land with very little control. I would recommend a blade everytime,because the lift is fairly controllable and quite floaty. The Frenzy is the other main option, but pricey and not really a buggy kite. The alternative is get yourself a seatbelt and have some fun!!!! Quote
Mark Everitt Posted November 27, 2003 Report Posted November 27, 2003 You can never have too much lift in a buggy. Get a blade. Mark Quote
Guest Nevermind Posted November 28, 2003 Report Posted November 28, 2003 haved to agree with buggyair go for blade!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! aslong as you keep it low when buggying and slow sown plenty before taking it to the top it will not produce that much lift batc Quote
