I would say Cabrinha, its one of the three most popular brands, its quite expensive and they dont seem to expend much on contruction :!:

Uh oh. You're in trouble now!!!!

You can't ask that kind of question on THIS forum! That implies that the person answering the question may know the market share of a company and their profit margin. That is clearly inside information that is not allowed for discussion here.

Toby, take it down!!!

:lol1: :lol1:

Phew, good thing I caught this one so I could warn everybody. Just trying to be a good kiteforum citizen. ;)

By the way, I can't vote. It goes right to the poll results for me?!?

I think that when you put a poll up you can put a due date... and considering this thread is from one year ago it should be outdated :lol:

I think it must be Naish. They have a lot of experience in the busines part. They ask and get a lot higher price for the same product. I never see their kites deeply discounted. They also never had a huge market fiasco.
