I have a 12m dice in blue/petrol that's got stitching coming undone on one batten pocket just waiting on north warranty ?
And the bar on my 9m had a big chuck out of the bar insert where the lines slide through that appeared after the second go so just waiting on north warranty ? Other than that love the kites ,I think I'm just unlucky wish it was because of my amazing kiting skills ! Not
I've got a 12 thats had a lot of use, often gets stuffed unpacked in the boot covered in gear for days at a time and occasionally even gets left lying unpacked around the garage with kids once riding bikes over it. so far no damage at all.
Bought a new north fuse, was bleeding the air from the struts after a sesh by wiping my hand along struts when my hand brushed over those yellow support strips sewn onto the struts it sliced a bit of my hand on the corner piece luckily I wasn't pushing down too hard so it wasn't deep enough to draw blood, guessing this must be a new crisp kite thing.
(Food for though?) when your packing up your kite and putting it away.
Ya exactly what I mean, when ya get brand new everything is crispy new an unworn with sharp edges, especially with north and all there fancy little bits and pieces they add to there kites.
