$30 for a 15 metre kite. 2008 no less. People are actually bidding on it as well.
For $30 would you take it?
I can just see some poor guy, "Ooooh $30 dollars, wow i bet it couldn't be that hard to learn either".... Bruised and battered with one shredded kite two days later.
There is a 2008 i think airrush on there for $280 new, might be still on there, seller has no feedback and is posting from china for a bargin price of.......................drum roll $30
BARGIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i smell a scam , someone buy it and keep me informed
Geez sorry Beersy, next time I put an add on Ebay I'll check for your permission first!!
Yes it is made in China (wow that's rare these days!). Construction is actually quite good, sadly better than some other big names out there and has heaps more tuning options than most.
Yes it is a 15m bow so it is grunty but no rocket in the turning category and if you let go of the bar it falls out of the sky. With a modern bridle the bar pressure is really light (straight out the bag this kite was terrible, but a different bridle makes a big difference). So I would say a light, slow turning (speed it up with a bigger bar,or move it to the rear pigtail), kite that depowers well is not a bad option for a beginner in light wind.
If you want an insane kite that is a looping weapon that will boost you to the moon throwing handle passes all the way back to Earth, then this isn't for you.
Anyways, I guess thanks for the bonus advertising.
I had no problem with your advert other than the unbelievably cheap cost attached to it (and maybe the bright yellow colours). I couldn't believe that it was a real Advert. Hope someone on seabreeze bought it after seeing this topic.
