In the proper wind range, I don't see any reason why the SUL would be any different!

I'm just learning to axel, and this does it fine. It only seems to axel to the left, but that's an operator problem. The wind has been so light around here lately, that this is the only kite I've been able to use, and usually I can't even fly that! -- Benton Jackson, Goat Rider at Fenris Wolf Electronic Games benton@fenriswolf.com http://www2.bitstream.net/~benton = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = From: bluekites@inmind.com (BlueKites) Subject: Re: prism super ultralight eclipse Date: Thu, 20 Jun 1996 01:27:54 -1000 Organization: Blue Ridge Kites Message-ID: <4qbchr$rth@mujibur.inmind.com> In article <1.5.4.16.19960618221854.0c672c6a@em.cenida.it>, peter_zanon wrote: >I will buy a super ultralight eclipse from prism.

Though you will not win any precision contests with it you will do cascades, half axles and coin tosses with ease. I am sure you will be pleased.
