Like it says in the title, good used condition ready to fly with lines, handles and original flexifoil ruck sack. Also included in the sale are a ground spike to teather the kite while you have a rest, and a harness, which dramatically reduces the strain on your arms. To complete the package I'm also including an Exit off road skate board. All for £100. Scroll down for pics.

You'd have to be brave to use it over water, its ram air inflated, so if you binned it it would fill with water and sink. A bit of body dragging in the shallows would be cool but out at sea is too dangerous. Ideal for land boarding/off road skateboard type thing or buggies though. For £100 i'll sell it with my Exit Off road skateboard, that i was going to keep for making into a soapbox cart.

I`m thinking Kite surfing Probably not such a good idea as Mark outlined, no inflatable spars means it'll bug the sh*te out of you... Whilst you're stranded out at sea   And if it's a 6.5m2 kite it'll be too small as well. But if it'll pull a buggy, then that sounds like a plan... ;D Edited... 'Cos these are pretty good for jumping (like 30ft+) with |

hmm
would you sell the board seperatly?
I would buy it all but i literally just bought a spanking new 3.5m Flexifiol Rage so don't have a lot of use for a bigger kite, the new design of the rage means that it pulls harder and longer than any of the bigger ones I've tried

I'd like to try and sell the lot for now, but if it doesn't sell as a set i'll give you a pm and you can make me an offer for the board. Which looks like this:  |

BC - I had the kite up for £80 before I descided to sell the board as well, so if you'd like the kite/harness/spike combo for that price its yours.
10mpg - £20 for the board.
PM'd you guys!
Can this possibly all come together like clockwork?

OK Tim, BC has first dibs, then i'll get back to ya ASAP You have PM - I've been doing some research and I had intended that it would be an ideal replacement for my two stacked 10 ft flexis but it's way more powerfull than a stacked pair and I don't buggy or board kite and I'm a lightweight (no comments chaps) so it's just going to drag me around too much Sorry - hope you find someone who does want it cos it's certainly a bargain price wise |

Retro-Kites on Retro Rides, Vipers are great old school kites.
Iwould be interested if I hadn't only just used up all my Kite budget for the year on my last Blade IV.
