old phantom

shortlineflyer - 17-12-2011 at 12:18 PM

So i know that the new phantom is coming out soon and i was wondering if anyone is going to get rid of the original phantom after they get the new one. The problem is that i cant afford a new kite right now. I cant even afford most used kites, but from what Ive heard the phantom is a great kite and i would love to try one. Would anyone be willing to cut me a deal on one.

The Phantom price is probably going to be less effected by the release of the Phantom II than the used Charger / Synergy prices. I have a feeling it is these people who are most likely to be trading up + team riders will probably be replacing their gear.

The Phantom II won't replace the old Phantom. It will be a completely different animal.

Todd won't steer you wrong.
He fixed me up with my first Phantom, a 12 also.
Still my favorite kite of all time
and the coolest looking one ever as well.

Thank you Lad and yes another 12m sold to *******. I'll let him fill in the blank on the new owner :smilegrin: Ken is correct about the Phantoms, I LOVE the original Phantoms but it's time to move on and share. Pretty much the same along with the GoPros and for me I'm about to upgrade to a new level.

yes, team riders will upgrade Chargers if Charger IIs come out. Lots hitting the market fast could cause a price dip.

Not that soon on the PII is what I hear.
