Hi guys ive been looking at the switchblade series frmo cabrinha and have heard many good things about it. i was just wondering would u guys recomend buying a 1 or 2? the thing is i can get a 1 series for like 300 dollars cheaper? i have had a c kite but made no progression with it. so im turning to a bow kite after hearing only good news about them for learning. cheers hope to hear from u soon

No! 1 has alot of bar pressure with the pulleys on the bar. 2 at least. 3 much better.

SB3 are wikid. i can go out in about 12 kt to 25kt approx. only 60kg. but they are wikid kites. and safe.

It's a no brainer, don't bother with the SB1 eg bar set up, go 2 better yet pay 4 the 3 an be even happier andd progress even more..........

Joel,

If your starting a SB2 will get you up and going quickly, as you are just learing i wouldn't bother buying a new kite or even a SB3. I would try and find a reasonably cheap SB2 and once you done a season on it look at upgrading. That way you don't trash a good kite.

PS. I have a SB2 12m for sale. PM me if you want to have a look or give it a demo.

I have just bought the ids to replace my sb3- awesome kite for learning, safe stable and easy- from memory the 2 had the same attributes.

the 9 meter sb1 was pretty good, but the sb1 in the 12meter was a piece of crap.

300 dollars cheaper? more like 300 dollars total

ok from wat every1 ive spoken to has said, ive decided the best value for money would be the SB2. if anyone has one that they are selling for a good price, send us a pm:) cheers
