came across this at real

www.realkiteboading.com

all SS Links 07, any size, complete for $699...

How do all you link-riders like em?

I am used to Fuels, and Waroos...just curious how I would like them.

Any input would help cuz I'm sure these will go quick.

Better than being a turd burgler! Wink

IMHO kites are getting better each year. That being said I am only interested in 07 or better yet 08 kites. So I say NO deal.

Deal for sure!! Thumb's Up

I flew the 9m & 12m LINKs (with the updated bridle) in Maui last December (thanks for the demo Amery) and loved them! The kites handled the gusts very well. Tons of fun in the waves. Good pop and height when jumping, quick turning, bar with sliding stopper works great, etc.

Similar to the Waroo, but the LINK has the option to ride with four lines or with the adjustable fifth line which makes it feel more like a ‘C’ kite and provides a greater range of tuning options.

Picked up a 7m and 10.5 for the wife (I “borrow” the 10.5 when the wind cranks up and the 7 when it’s nuclear!). For comparison I ride a 13m Fuel and a 17.5 Machine and weigh 205lbs. ~D
