Eclipse Kites durability
|
Pimp on Pimp master T! ;-) Sounds similar to Blieghty's experince with his Roo when the bar end pulled off. I think in both cases the good condition of the kites was due more to the good karma of the opperator than the construction quality of the kite.

That story reminds me of that day at EB when it was NUKIN all morning and me, Toby, Eric and Rusky were on the beach and Linda and Roy were riding when Linda goes for a boost and the center line snaped and Roy's new atom when flying! it sored a ways then landed perfect like someone had set it down LOL Roys lucky when it comes to kites landing themselfs.

ya.. my 9m waroo took a trip through the mangroves .. was wrapped around a few branches and bouncing all around as the wind was pounding on it.
how it escaped w/o the slightest ding i will never know. |
Thanks for the heads up about the defective leashes :) I'm just yanking your chain. No doubt that kite is made well... looked pretty solid when I looked at it!

I remember that time at EB Adam, Roy and Linda got SO lucky, Roy also had that same thing happen at EB early this season when he and his brother-in-law Paul were passing his Ozone and a crazy gust hit and his leash broke. The kite flipped up into the air, did a 180 degree flip and then landed perfectly on the beach, nose into the wind like someone had placed it there after catching it...
