Damn you guys - just kick that Ho off ha ha

Kichen dude - you would be correct if no one else had already posted - what a shame

Yeah im with you guys... I liked they 2009 10m Eclipse thruster, for fast turning aggressive jumping and looping. The trade off was bottom end and slower relaunch... but in 25 knts who cares.

Get any good dvd like the 'progression' series that explains it step by step - youll understand whats goin on and learn that and other tricks faster !!

Makes sense that being fabric the whole kite will flex. The wear factor maybe little but for m...

Alternately just leave the struts inflated and stand it in the shower. Nothing worse than pulling out a kite half covered in sand from the last storm roll up on the beach..
