This is not a beat on best kites thread but I couldn't help notice that their kites aren't exactly cheap anymore.

Complete 11m waroo setup = $1100

Complete slingshot REV setup = $1400

Shocked Shocked Shocked

Weren't best kites like $750 complete when they came out?

not only that, its not even a one pump!

you'll have to pay extra for that, so its even less of a difference in price compared to a rev.....

It'd be sweet if we could make our own for less, and then just purchase the bar and lines.

Oh well, I can dream can't I?

Yeah, I've noticed the rise in price on waroos. Not really sure whats going on - but there are sales on brand new 07's. But then again you can find brand new TD II's on sale also.

If I remember right the nemesis HP is like within $100 of the Rev complete.
