ThanksJust grabbed one of these while they're on offer:

It will probably take the place of the SWRT one that unfortunately isn't really required any more!

Superfast delivery by Flexifoil! Next day delivery!

Well just a little update on this guys.
Im all stoked out again, today i started out my rotations. Wind was clean and strong with a constant 17mph maxing out at 23mph. I spent today on the 8.5m BladeIV.
Started off with some reverse arial 180s, and as my confidence grew i decided to attempt a big one, although it has to be said i never thought it was going to be as big as it was.
I ended up absolutely nailing a huge reverse 540 arial with a lovely floaty landing and rode away clean.
I have to say i was shaking for over an hour after and am still buzzing now.
I have to say a huge thanks to Paul, Shaun and little Adam for inspiring me and pushing me with the confidence to attempt some of the stuff im doing now.
Who would ever of thought id come this far so soon!!!
Thankyou so much guys, cant wait to do more

Yes a massive day yesterday for young Frayz !!
I missed all his best bits
including the trip into the ditch & landing in the neighboring field
is 22 acres just not enough for you
I did see alot of your reverse 180's & i must say i was well impressed , i think that the biggest compliment i can pay you was as i was watching it was hard to tell if it was you , Sean , or Paul actually doing the transitions , your Grey helmet gives you away
Well done mate to hold onto that 8.5 Blade in those winds is something else as i proved
you finally took the pi$$ good & proper by going backwards faster than i was going forwards
Great day in the end glad that i stuck with it , Thanks to Sean for the use & then the half price purchase of the arminator
Keep it safe buddy

Sounds good, glad you're pleased, but to be honest , I don't know the jargon and therefore i haven't a clue what you have done.
Please give a plain English version for us non kiters, cheers.

Tiny - Cheers big fella. And yes mate that is a massive complement to say you struggled to tell us appart. Those guys are stunning riders.
Cheers for pushing me being there every step. We have both pushed eachother and achieved so much in such a short space of time.
Lol, at the backwards ripping. I was having so much fun doing that ha ha, we were having a great time
Neil - Reverse arial 540...
Start of going backwards, perform an arial hook with the kite (This is a kite manouvre that creates the lift to rip you and the buggy off of the ground) I went up approx 6/7 feet and did a 540 degree spin (1.5 rotations of me in the buggy) and landed facing forwards and rode away clean.
Its was an absolutely huge moment for me

My 5m Blurr maybe for sale guys...
Testing the water here a little.
I have a 5m Blurr that i purchased brand new back in Oct 08 and am now into buggy freestyle. So i am now collecting a quiver of Blade IVs.
This kite is absolutely mint and has been flown probably half a dozen times at best. (All on grass except one beach trip pic below) Its crispy and like all my kit beautifully kept.
Can do a deal with lines + Prolink handles or kite only.
Let me know if anyone is interested.
£250

I have my 4.9m Blade IV mate, so it means the days when i may need to fly the Blurr are once in a blue moon.
Not worth keeping. Gutting to be honest as i love this kite, it was my first new buggy kite. Im tempted to keep it for sentimental value alone lol
.
Im serious when i say this is absolutely immaculate and could be considered new. Last flown in Dec.

Yeah i spoke to Halesy earlier. What a steal he got them for too!!
I really love my Blurr... its a stunning kite with some cracking memories with it too, but i cant justify keeping her when in the same winds im now flying my 4.9m Blade IV.
I know i can handle my 4.9m in up to 37mph winds (Admittedly damn powered up lol)
So i see no time when i will fly the Blurr anymore
