They were good kites for their time and can still be but don't judge foil kites in general from an old Venom that likely won't even fly well from age.
That made me laugh, 15 years between posts must be record on kiteforum, the OP hasn’t been back sinceCoopes wrote: 2005!!! Someone's digging up old bones! 16m Venom at your weight on that board will get you going at 14knts. but its not a grunty kite and will need to learn about apparent wind. And top out at around 25 knots depending on your skill level. Would love to have have a go on a Venom again, as the Chargers were very disappointing experience!
