How to tell what year your kite is?

Postby redhatlx09 » Wed May 09, 2012 6:55 pm

How can i tell what year my kite is?

I have read the manual front to back and it does not state the year. Aside from rolling the kite out and finding the serial number on it (is there one?) I was thinking there might be an easier way to determine the year?

Its a Naish Aero 2 Brand new never used

Thx in advance

How i found it editsmiley thx a lot man

You cut a cross-sectional piece through one of the ribs and count the number of rings...

If it's an Aero 2, it's probably 2004? or so?
