Hello everybody!!


Hello everybody, my name is Raffaele and I'm from Rome, Italy. I started power kiting last summer and I just got my Zebra Buggy, I hope to test it this week end. I own a Peter Lynn Twister II 5.6, do you think is ok for a buggy? I'm not interested on freestyle or jump with the buggy, just cruising.
Thank you!!

Ps. I'm happy to belong to the kiters community!

I've buggied with the Twister. Its more suited to landboarding/jumping, but it does ok in the buggy. Peter Lynn kites more suited are the Viper/Reactor which are designed for that. welcome

I was wondering what was causing all that weird weather in Italy... someone bought new kite gear!

Never fails.
