    Eolo Radsail

    The Radsail is a good beginners kite - ignore what others say when comparing it to a blade or a bullet or other £300+ kite - that's like comparing a Ford Focus with Porsche.

    For the money this is amazing fun in any wind greater than about 10mph. Not the best build quality nor the best flying ability, but an OK all-rounder that will stick a grin on your face in light breeze and scare the **** out of you in a strong one! One thing I would say - buy the biggest kite you can for the cash - you can learn in light winds when the weather is nice, rather than having to wait for a hurricane, larger kites handle more smoothly and predictably than small ones and as you progress you can take it out in higher winds! After just one day I wish I'd got a 5m kite! 🙂

    Also, before buying, get to a site where others fly - they're usually more than happy to let you 'have a go' (Special thanks to the boys in Cambridge for doing just that) Now all I need is 15mph winds...... 😉

    a quick one on flying a rad i am an instructor with a local kite school who are sponsored by flexifoil. the school has just aquired a full range of this years kites including 2006 bullets. ive found them to be very tricky when teaching newbeis and have often pulled my own radsail out of the bag for a student to use. also i could not get the little bullet 2.5 to turn under at all it (tight turn toward the ground) it would always hit the deck. where as the radsail 2.5 4m pro and 6m pro all can turn under in one kite length (kite is only its legth off the floor and still turns under) weird huh you think that by paying more it will be better ok i admit the 2.5 bullet pulls harder than the 2.5 rad but if you use one sise up for every respective flexi you have a similar quiver for less cash i dont think you can loose p.s. have you seen the new radsail extreme range.
