Fell over this advert. The quote from Stephen Hoath, if accurate, makes it tempting. But what do people think of them?

Hello Sailor
Wise move to post your question here and not elsewhere.
Tempted by the price, I briefly considered one before I bought my first Rev but was advised against it and ended up buying an sle.
I'm told that they don't reverse as well as a Rev, but I have to say I've not tried one. From what has been said so far it sounds a bit like a Rev II. I know it's probably a bit smaller and a bit more money but for an established Rev flier a Rev II is probably the way to go.

Hi Jerremy, I love these kites but I don't see them as a replacement for any other type of 4 line kite.
I found them most fun in a strong wind. They fly like you wouldn't believe and flic-flac like it's on acid
I agree that the handles that come with it are not the best choice but the line is fine, in fact I have team flown on it without problems.
You can always take the bridle off and fly it direct, then it's even more mad. For me though I would stack 6 of them and have a blast that way around. It a cheaper way of getting into large stacks.
Come to Exmouth/Washington/Basingstoke/Blackheath and you can try Daniel's.
