Alert alert alert kite comparision thread!!!!!!

There is only one rule in thunderdome and that is no kite comparison threads.

Try to demo both and see what you think. They are both fine kites it's all a matter of personal preference

perhaps i should have worded that differently! unfortunaltely up in maine there are no shops to demo these kites. just looking for some real info on the flying characteristics , more about the octane. i was able to ride the 12 m boss 2 years ago. in the future i shall not post vs threads.

If you liked the boss, you will love the Smoke in higher winds.
