if you are looking for a land based kite to get you going with a view to upgrading at a later date try www.powerkiteshop.com....if
after you've mastered the land based kite and it's still in good nick they'll give you a full refund against the purchase of a water
based kite, so in effect you get your land based kite for free....col

hey i always reccomend to begginners a bullet 3.5 problem in though that they cost 269.95 but that includes you lines and handles. when
i first started i bought a firebee 2m of ebay for 90 quid but found it really unstable, it was good to fly in really strong winds but
get a wind of about 3-8 miles an hour and its pooh.
if u can afford a bullet, you can sell your kite and still get quite a bit of money for it towards your next kite.
we paid 90 quid for a firebee 6.5 without handles, and with handles sold it later on for 157 pounds on ebay!
