that kite didn't do that all on its own. Most likely you crashed the shit out of it, repeatedly. Kites are not made out of steel. If you do tricks and crash the hell out of your kite, expect to replace them early. Or go on a forum and whine about it like a little bitch. Big difference between use an...

The 11.8 was actually close to a 16m kite as we used a "projected" size number, (think shadow size). The next size up was 13. something and was a little over 18m flat. If you...
