No price on the 6.5m Blade at the mo mate. Dont expect to pay less than £320 for it though if its a good one.

Be warned though, the 6.5m will bite you if you dont respect it. I dont recomend you flying it unharnessed. It lift created by even the slightest gusts on the 6.5m will take you (And your buggy) clean off the floor.

Again, nothing to worry about... just excercise some respect when flying it.

Absolutely awesome kite. though.. one of my favorites

Indeed the guy on Ebay is selling some cracking kite in fantastic condition, Well worth a look

Finished the headstock mod on my Flexi today guys.

Massive, massive thanks to Shaun & Paul for giving me this idea.

Headstock looks stock from the outside but now contains 3 separate races of needle roller bearings. The steering action is now silky smooth with absolutely no play whatsoever.

Even with brand new bushes my steering has never felt so solid and effortless to turn.

Fitted up with dust covers when installed. Hope you like it as much as i do

Lol, fast enough spreadsheet boy.

I will make it so it still uses the steering stop for the time being Col. Easy mod to do if i decide to do bar spins.

Neat little bit of engineering to get the bearings in there but it feels sooo much better than the bushes that were in there.
