Hello, this my opinion on the PKD Buster 2 metre which is colour coded in red.
I bought this kite in 2003 when i first started flying, this was recommended to me as a beginners kite.
The first thing i noticed is that it came with everything so all i had to do is pull it out of the bag and it was ready to fly. The material is good quality, the stiching is good as far as i could tell. At the time i did not know if the handles were any good but since then i have had other kite and i love the handles on the PKD as the line off the handle for the brakes are adjustable in a locking system, which means you can adjust the brakes with the kite in the zenith. The other thing i really love about this kite is the adjustable power line on the bridle, there are several settings which means you can have more or less power depending on experience or weather.
.
When flying the kite i still can't get over how responsive it is, if you use the brakes to turn it will turn on a six pence. I've only ever used this kite for static flying, but having said that in 25mph winds it can drag you along.
I've tried flying this kite on a bar, i found this did not work to well, wether it's me use to flying on handles or if it's the kite i don't know.
In conclusion, ibought this kite 3 years ago for just over £100 and it's had a lot of use, it's never let me down and i've never got bored of it, so i think these kites are very well made, well priced and really good fun. Ideal for a beginner and intermidiate.
Happy flying.
