Re: Kiting doesn't have to be expensive
It doesn’t have to be just as a coke habit doesn’t have to be yet addictions tend to get expensive. “If a little is good, more is better”. Gotta up the performance of the gear, bigger van/car, parking passes, plane tickets, vacation rentals, gear for the spouse or other stuff to keep the peace….it adds up faster than we think. So, no it doesn’t have to but it mostly is.

Yes x 100
The only reason I have a quiver is because of Pansh

It's better than nothing and as long as I'm not comparing a Ferrari (Naish) to a Toyota (Pansh) than it's a "good quality" kite!

Re: Kiting doesn't have to be expensive
Dang!! I am just getting into sport and me and a buddy got two 2010 octanes for $190 a piece. Nice and crispy but very mixed reviews I found out after. I would love to get a deal like that. On here trying to learn. Flew it once just kiting it and letting it slide me across the snow. Going out to a frozen lake tomorrow and try to ride. Then I will able to all the right questions after I discover my struggles
Great deal on the rally! Makes me feel we got screwed. I don’t even know what’s not good about the bar but it’s like new and has an extra line set as well. Spent most of of its life in the bag
