teds ...profoil looks like he has a couple 1.5s.....this kite is super fast and now very cheap...I have one and in real strong winds 20- 25 mph the things is amazing....tiny but strong...

A friend of mine bought a 1m Profoil and the thing rips through the skies at blistering speeds. Ted's kites are very well built and worth every penny!

You want small and fast? Look no further than the Ozone Yakuza 2.2m. Way fast, lots of fun in high winds. I picked mine up from awindofchange for a nice price...fast shipping...nice folks...and a PKF guy too with good advice.

Yup, the Yakuza's are FAST!!!!

The 2.2 is a rocket ship. We still have two left in stock at closeout prices.

Ted's got a post on here that says the web site is innaccurate- 1.0's only left and he's got like 3-4 of them. Like $40 KO.

Ted's 1 m is a fun small kite. Very fast! That is also an unbeatable price! You might also look at a cooper 2.1 or the 2.6! Not quite as pricey as a Yak!
