andychapp Posted May 17, 2010 Report Share Posted May 17, 2010 Hi, I have just got myself a flexifoil buggy. Although i have not taken it out yet i have severl years kiting experence. I have many kites from small deltas to a hq Cougar. I also have a blade3 4m and a HQ beamer 5m. Now here is what i am looking for advice on. I am emigrating to Sydney at the end of the year and the cost of foils in oz is expensive, so i am looking for a 2m kite for high winds and maybe a big one for low wind as i think i have the middle covered. Any sugestions? Thanks Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heres jonny Posted May 17, 2010 Report Share Posted May 17, 2010 7m flexifoil blurr for the low wind... 2.5 blurr for the high wind... or flexi rages maybe, 6m and 2.5m... Flexifoil fixed bridle kites are amongst the best ive flown Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batz Posted May 17, 2010 Report Share Posted May 17, 2010 Blurrs are good. Was flying them yesterday! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andychapp Posted May 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2010 Cool, Thanks for the advice i think i will go for a blurr or 2. Now i just need the money from the house sale. Shhhh don't tell mrs andychapp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heres jonny Posted May 17, 2010 Report Share Posted May 17, 2010 haha also worth a look at something like the Ozone flow, 2 or 3m for high wind and the ozone Haka, bigger sizes are very powerful, 7 or 9m, for the low wind days Pl hornet and PL twister aswell.. but again, flown all these and the Blurr wins hand down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
custheyder Posted May 17, 2010 Report Share Posted May 17, 2010 Don't forget to look at the Pansh range. The 2m Ace is an evil little fecker... and I love mine to bits. Free postage to oz as well! ...the 2m Legend is far more tame, but for a bloater like me usable up to 50mph. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heres jonny Posted May 17, 2010 Report Share Posted May 17, 2010 but its a Pansh tin of worms opened here me thinks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batz Posted May 17, 2010 Report Share Posted May 17, 2010 I'd usually agree, but having flown a 3m (dunno what) the yellow and black pansh thing and the prototypes for the new FLUX range, I can't really slag them off. The only thing faster than the 3.3 pansh racekite type at the weekend was my 12m Manta, but I was having a mad moment going out in the buggy when i could barley stay on the ground!

custheyder Posted May 17, 2010 Report Share Posted May 17, 2010 Yup ... Pansh kites have come a long, long way since their initial launch on the market. The new Flux is going to be brilliant if they make it in a good range of sizes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batz Posted May 17, 2010 Report Share Posted May 17, 2010 Nick (who has 2 different 4.7 versions) says they are going to make loads of sizes, they are really good. I hope the do them in the mad orange of one of the prototypes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick1599968727 Posted May 17, 2010 Report Share Posted May 17, 2010 for the realy silly wind, when the 4m access is not out its the turn of the 1.8m rage small but like a very angry wasp in a bottle in 40mph wind Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patch1599968828 Posted May 17, 2010 Report Share Posted May 17, 2010 The 2m Pansh Legend is a cracking high wind kite. If anyone has any doubts about Pansh still try Panshfans.com and put your name on the list to try the new Flux prototype for free. Look for the official Pass the Pansh UK thread and stick your name down. Oh yes I am running it at the moment but I get nothing for it. Low wind = 7m Ace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
