Because Amber could not fly the Ion comfortably. I bought the Ion for her and I am still the only one who has flown it for more than about a minute between her and I. The depower strap is too far up the bar for her and she was not comfortable with the way it relaunches (like a C kite). She is pretty short and needed a smaller size kite (12M) instead of the 15M which had her a little overpowered most of the time. I think the Waroo is a much better kite for her needs right now. So hopefully we'll get what she wants for the Ion...
