sting kites are good.

any 4 liner will do you (get one with different coloured lines though)

you can get a beemer like mine, or a peter lynn 4 liner for £100 ish

money well spent mate, better that 1/3 of a FMIC by far

Ive a 3.3 sting theyre very good. Highest recreational kite that flexi make. can be used for traction in high winds too.

If you want to just fly, theyre awesome. However if you want to do traction stuff, id recomend a blurr. And no less than 4m really.

Punk isnt new.
It was done for "Breast Cancer".

My sting is in the Punk colours. Every kite sold in the limited edition Punk colours a £10 donation was made for breast cancer

I meant Friday mornings in general

I might get a 2 line stunt or/buzz to mess about on with Joffy and also means I can tag along without tapping you up for a lend

I reckon I need to look with buying eyes at your rage and blurr before I spend any money on proper gear
