Not as yet - I can not make my mind up :-k
For a little bit more I could buy a new one from The Highwayman - may even show in their end of season sale [-o< But there again I'd have to start tampering with it to put the yo yo stoppers on, which is bound to go wrong knowing my luck with anything resembling DIY :huh:
There's also the new CdC kites coming out soon...
So many decisions so little money :cry:

Yeah, I've seen mention of the new cdc kites, I think I might be interested in the 0 wind STX 1.8.

Nice of them to bring out the Level One Blackjack with a new panel layout:

:shock:
Seriously, don't know the size of that new CdC Blitz and the spine is slightly shorter, but the shape is a bit too close for comfort. These things also do happen with no "malicious" intent of course, but I really wonder what Jens & Frank at Level One think about this.

I'm not so sure, looking at the nose angles the CdC looks more obtuse :?

seems it'll be more of an indoor 0 wind :?
Don't you think that CdC are being alittle too prolific at the moment, kind of gets a bit confusing.
Did you ever get a "Dream" ?

Yeah, I got a Dream. Nice kite. Less 'twitchy' than the Hellfire. Has more of a 'budget' feel about it but for the price who can blame them.
Doesn't however push the envelope any further than the Styx series however - well not with me flying it :lol:

Nope, I hadn't fallen off the map. Although one would be excused for thinking so...
