doggy Posted February 4, 2006 Report Posted February 4, 2006 The mac bego 600 is supposed to be the best low wind kite due it being so light weight, it also has loads of lift so excellent for jumping Quote
Tom_Wragg Posted February 5, 2006 Report Posted February 5, 2006 get the 8.5m blade3. it's great for low wind and has quicker turning than the 10.5m Quote

KiteDeck Dan Posted February 5, 2006 Report Posted February 5, 2006 an 8.5 blade is the way to go some times the 10.5 can be to heavy and wont fly also the 8.5 turns faster hope this helps dan Quote
fly4fun Posted February 5, 2006 Author Report Posted February 5, 2006 cheers 4 the help i will have 2 start saving up now Quote
daZZa-S Posted February 5, 2006 Report Posted February 5, 2006 13m U-Turn Butane on depower. :eek: Have your tried the 13 yet... thats a beast:D Quote
JohnDave Posted February 6, 2006 Report Posted February 6, 2006 I use a Blade 2 7.8m, but an 8.5m Blade 3 is the tool of choice at our beach. Also concider a 9m Ozone Riot. To be honest on really light wind days you're better off scoring brownie points for those sweet days you just HAVE to go out flying your favourite toy in it's sweet spot..... John Quote
mightymart Posted February 7, 2006 Report Posted February 7, 2006 The Mac Bego 600 or 400 is suppose to be the best low wind kite but from what I have read they can be a pig to fly if not set up right. Quote
daZZa-S Posted February 7, 2006 Report Posted February 7, 2006 if you can find a flysurfer mastair hen get it...bitch to inflate but once its up is surpose to be the ultimate low wind kite Quote
