what next

[Oooo]

when you have a prism E2 and a rev sig B series !! what should i look at getting next in the stunt kite range !! when only doing it part time with traction kiting thrown in too !!!

[Cesium]

How about something decent? :tongue2: I jest, I jest...

I'd suggest a Deepspace - very, very tricky, extremely well built, and quite tough.

With all due respect to Adrians suggestion, i think there are too many people that dont quite connect with the DS to guarantee that you will like it, you either love the DS....or you dont.

(Adrians a massive Benson fan if you didnt know already :tongue2: )

For a first kite after the E2, id go for something a little more "regular" in its flying style, pehaps a Blue Moon Exile or Muse.

Or if you're on a budget i reckon the Flying Wings Silver Foxes are a good buy, although certainly not of the same build quality of the DS or the Blue Moons.

Hey Wolfie,

What do you think you want to do next with your kiting? Is it the team/precision/ballet or more into the freestyle direction?

Lets see if we can whittle it down a bit, or we'll be here all day

My suggestion would be something that will fly in light winds. If you are into traction and the wind is sub 10knots you sit around waiting to fly something. What a good time to get something that is a light wind flyer while you are waiting for the wind to pick up. Once the wind is up, out come the traction stuff again for some POWER.

I'll second Spotters comments.

A light wind kite for those days of almost no wind.

I love my little HQ Baby Tana.

Ditto to Spotter & Nigel's suggestions. A light wind kite is good fun, Mike. Things happen a little slower, and you've got time to think. The more experienced guys might have something different to say, but I think it's made it a little easier to learn the tricks (and I'm just starting to get the hang of some of those, as U know).

I'm very happy with the Silver Fox UL. It's not a true UL I'm told, but it's doing a good job... and the price is great.

wolfie,

Blue Moon Kites (Ken Mcneill) build absolutely first class quality kites that fly very well. I would reccomend them highly.

I have an Exile UL and a 61/49 matching set and I am VERY happy with them. The quality is fantastic - in another world to your Prism.

The Muse is a good choice and not a bad price - it is very tricky and fly's very well.

If you want spend a few more dollars have a look at their Exile.

cheers

I have to agree with Steve... you can't go wrong with a Blue Moon. All the Blue Moons are available in an UL version, if you're after light wind flying. The standard Exile will fly comfortably in winds a little less than 5mph, while I have flown my Exile UL pretty easily in winds down to around 1mph. On 100' lines... I had my Prism Ozone out on the same day, and the Exile UL and Ozone have similar bottom ends, but the Exile UL can be flown on longer lines, increasing the wind window considerably.

It is also nice to have a kite that comes in your colors, with a personal inscription from the designer/builder. I think the only bad thing about a Blue Moon is the 6-8 week wait from the day you order it...

go for a prism zephyr good in light wind and still good when the wind starts to pick up and there a nice kite for tricks ans freeltylei have 10 kites right now from single lines for my 3 year old to a 13m surf kite and have a zephyr and quantum pro and both r fun to play with the quantum needs a lot of playing around with to get it to fly sweet butu can adgust about everything on itand they have a waight set so when the wind realy picks up u can slow it down with the extra waight
