Sparkster Posted December 11, 2006 Report Posted December 11, 2006 I have a 4m Blade 2, which is great, but because where i fly is on a slope i need something bigger to pull me up it and to give more tug in low winds. Having mused about it for some weeks i have boiled it down to either of these 3 kites...4.9 Blade III, 6.6 Blade III or 6m Sami. I like the idea of the Sami because of the reputation for quality, but the Blades are just so choice and when i'm ready for it i want to get in the air. I don't have money sloshing about so i want to make the right choice and buy something that will last me for the next 3-4 years. Just wondered if anyone has a view on any of those 3 kites or any others that would suit. Quote
jumping jim Posted December 11, 2006 Report Posted December 11, 2006 where abouts in northants do you fly? look at the cobblers thread in meets section. ive got a 4.9 you can have a go on and there are a couple of 6.6s down there, come try them out Quote
jonathand Posted December 11, 2006 Report Posted December 11, 2006 wat u need is a 6.5 blade iv, i just happen to have one for sale Quote
Sparkster Posted December 11, 2006 Author Report Posted December 11, 2006 I'm over in Raunds, theres a few of us here and we all fly Blades...so they are all i've flown. Where do you lot meet then? Quote
jumping jim Posted December 11, 2006 Report Posted December 11, 2006 theres quite a few of us who fly up at sixfields, you lot should come up sometime, its a really good site, big and flat Quote
Sparkster Posted December 11, 2006 Author Report Posted December 11, 2006 Nice one! I may take you up on that. Cheers Quote
kite crazy Posted December 12, 2006 Report Posted December 12, 2006 i would recommend the 6.6m Blade 3 or if you have the dosh the 6.5m Blade IV... ...try and try them out and see which one you like Quote
Zenon1599968706 Posted December 12, 2006 Report Posted December 12, 2006 The 6.6 would be the better option as it just has so much grunt and raw power and i have on for sale;). PM me if interested. Quote
