Yeah, I'd like to try one too, but I can't seem to let go of the XBow III's. Also, I think this low priced thing vs. high priced thing is a myth. Once you make a fair comparison, i.e. price both size kites with bars with single pump inflation systems, I calculated the cabby's are only $100 maybe $150 more esp. since you can negotiate the price on cabby's but not the others.

Not a fair comparison at all...........
The waroos do not come with bars in your example and they also do not come with one pump system lets be fair. '08 Nemi e-z pump 12m + bar/ lines = $1398 '08 Switchblade III 12m + bar/ lines = $1579 difference = $181 you can't compare waroos with no bar/lines or no e-z pump to switchblades complete with bar/ lines. those prices are straight from manufacturer website. http://www.neilprydemaui.com/items.php?id=528 http://www.bestkiteboarding.com/08-NemesisHPEZ whats the big myth?

12M SB3+BAR: 1579 13M WAROO+BAR: 1148 ============= 1579 1148 ==== $431 cheaper (before taxes) and it's one size bigger. Buy it without the bar and save another $300 for a total of $731. $731 is a lot of money in my book. |

i think you are both correct..
obviously if you are talking a one-pump vs a non-one pump its apples and oranges think the HP vs SB is the "better" comparison.. Tho, I am with Tom in regards to what I want with a kite and when I see a price for a Cab or a SS it kinda freaks me out. I just bought 2 new kites (kite only, no bar) for less than 1 SB complete. Its all about what you want in a kite and what your budget is. also..I could have bought 4 used 2007 waroos for the price i paid for 2 new. |

HP has Cuben fiber. That stuff is expensive.
This money argument isn't worth it, imo. http://most-expensive.net/ |

LOL!!!!!!
if thats the way you wanna play it then the true calculations are: $1180 for the SBIII without bar but since I hate single point inflation system subtract another $250 ( since I can use my current bar and have no need for one pump ) price SBIII = $930 w/o bar or single point inflation price waroo = $731 LOL!!!!!!!!!!

Where can I order an SB3 without bar and one pump? Is that possible? You are still $200 over lol! Do some "new age" math! If $200 is missing from your wallet was it ever really there?
I'm really just playing with Raul... we are good friends. I just had to play when he said $150 difference. |
