Skybums sale,

Sat Jan 14, 2023 12:36 pm

All,

Looks like skybums are selling off some secondhand/ ex demo dual line kites from various manufacturers.

http://skybums.com/sale.htm

I'm sure someone here can at least identify the "unknowns"

The other day I said I thought I made #20 for Mark, I was wrong, I made that one for Jeremy Harrold it seems they were his kites.

11, 24 and 35  - wasnt there a 2nd generation Frenezy ?

The infamous "earth tones" Frenezy ... a friend in Dallas, TX has one and a "matching" Nirvana.

They did update the Frenezy - creating an Evo(lution) design.

Right, I just thought the Evo was the 2nd generation you mentioned.

Good kites, both of 'em.

I think were barking up the wrong tree: #3 is the same kite as 11, 24 and 35 but those round vents weren't they a Kitehouse thing ?

Don't recognise them being from Kitehouse. I'm positive that I had one at some point, though that doesn't narrow it down at all :biggrin:
