Sprint Race kites 4 sale

WELDNGOD - 17-12-2011 at 03:54 PM

Now that I have a set of PKD Combats ,I don't see me flying these anymore. I have 2 for sale, a 3.3m and a 5.0 Limited Edition in flour.yellow/green. Both have a bridle mod done to them that is discussed by Custheyder on the pansh forum. It made it fly better in my opinion. Both are in great shape.
3.3m $100 SOLD
5.0m $125 gave it away at WWBB

Price reduction........Now, I see what it must be like, to be Pansh!:lol:
These kites need a home ,where someone will fly them. there is plenty of life left in these two. These kites are NOT for noobs. They need to be "driven" to get the best performance. Not really for static flying though,in10 minutes you would be exhausted. However ,I have done some playing around w/ the 5m and pulled off some nice jumps . The 3.3m is a wicked fast kite in 15-20 I'm not gonna say they are Combat knockoffs,but they sure do fly alot like one:rolleyes:

Wow ....... Pansh ,it must suck to be you. Looks like your kites have zero resale value. I might have to resort to extortion

:lol: "gimme a hundred bucks or I'll put this in your kitebag and tell everyone that you fly PANSH":lol:

Well you are battling the Pansh reputation forged 5 years ago and selling kites the week before Christmas. You might have to wait till spring and offer a try before you buy program. You like them, so others would too. If they fly well, they are quite the bargain.

WELDNGOD - 21-12-2011 at 12:00 PM

You're probably right as usual Bob. Just trying to spread the sickness. They don't fly bad at all. No more twitchy than a Combat. they just have a narrow range where they are at their optimum.(just like bats) If the wind gets above that ,then the sidepull is almost unbearable. That is where the mod comes in,it made it surge forward in the gusts rather than pull you sideways. I also have two ( 2.0m and a 2.5m) ACEs,I would like to pass on.

ill trade you a 5 meter sprint for your 2.5 ace... lol

WELDNGOD - 22-12-2011 at 05:34 AM

@ H.A. You don't like your Sprint? I let ya have the 2.5 Ace K.O.for say 65 bucks,I paid like $150 new. Rarely flown,still crispy. Probably been flown a 1/2 dozen times. Red/ white.
I would also let the 2.0m ACE K.O. (little red demon) go cheap as well,to an experienced kiter. I will not sell these ACEs to any noobs,they are way too dangerous in the wrong hands. Don't want newby blood on my hands.

3.3m SOLD (PENDING)

Yeah, it never washes off. :no: I owned 1 Ace and sold it to a noob. (It turned out he oversold his experience to me). It turned out really really bad.

I told this story to the new guys at OOBE field. We came across the topic of jumping. They both want to jump but realize they need alot more stick time before their ready.................
