Dimitri just launched his new kites website

www.eclipsekites.com

look pretty spiffy.. cleat on the CL looks interesting..

difficult to judge a kites performance based on Dimitri's word.. he is on a whole different level than 99% of the worlds riders. He rides with zero depower. He rides HUGE kites compared to the conditions..

Kites are moderately priced.. and I know that Dimitri will sell for much less if you call him direct.

I have a 12M Thruster on the way. I know, everyone give me grief, I am Mr. kite buyer...but I think that this line of kites will finally thin out my quiver a LOT. Anyone is welcome to demo once it is in. I am purchasing direct from Eclipse and their customer service so far is incredible! You can just tell that they want you to succeed and progress personally as a rider using their gear... A+ so far, I'll type up a full review once the kite is here and I get a chance to ride it!

FYI, I have a 15M Flexifoil Ion and a 16M Slingshot Turbo Diesel flown about 5 times each that I will sell either of them complete for $675. After I get the Thruster may be selling more kites...

What in the world are you going to do with a 12M??!

Man, we should play poker some time. I need cash.

That's funny stuff. I am currently at the end of a tourney and its heads up time.

Poker addict.

Tom, did you look at the website and the projected wind ranges for a 175 lb rider? These kites are only made in 10M, 12M, and 14M sizes...
