I got my lovely crispy new red Proteam 8 two years ago. It's easy to set up and fly's well in a strong wind. It can be hard for beginners to fly although anyone that has flown a 2-line kite before should pick it up quickly. I was a little disappointed at the power and have thought I might have been better off with a 2.8 Symphony, which might have given me a little more grunt. I have flown a Super 10 and found it a little slow in the air, good pull though. The stacker 6 is very fast in the air but lacks the fight of the Super 10. That's why I got the Proteam 8 best of both worlds. In a good strong wind this kite is lots of fun and really puts up a good fight. In not so strong winds it can be a little dare I say it boring. I believe that you can buy a low wind spar set that will make it fly better in moderate winds. The last I looked I think they cast around £38 so quite costly. On the whole a good fun kite to fly in strong winds and kids will probably be ok with it in moderate winds. The construction is good and it is very tough if a little costly.

i take it it's a littlish kite then if its a stacker.... and yes it may be boring in low winds but, you don't want to do what my dad did the other day. he was flying his bullet on quite a gusty day, and managed to get lauched. anyway after regaining concoiusness and an overnight stay in hospital, all hre could ask was whether the kite had been packed up properly in his absence!!lol. but that is a four line kite so a little more powerful i think!!
