I love riding the F-One kites and Boards but find the products hard to get. Pay in advance, wait 6 weeks or more, time off work to be there for deliverey, and still not get what you want, at the expected price....

It is a great product, but is it worth the dicking around to get it????

Has anyone noticed the cheaper, even no name brands, getting closer to matching the quality of the big major brands, and becoming easier to get, sometime even GST free??

Everyone is tempted by cheaper price, similar quality, and better customer service...

I went from the Bandits to the Screamers!! Hit up Nigel, his a local as well. I imported but when you can deal with someone face to face at near the price then that's the sure bet!

Have a try, the screamers are insane, I'm only off them now as they are a powerful kite (although still my goto kite for the surf).

As for quality there on par with anything you will see in the shops, and his (owner of epic - Dimitri M) warranty is good (I can account first hand for this).
