So I think it's an early one, came in a different kind of bag than others, like a gym bag... The material also feels different to modern kites, like a tent almost.
Also if anybody has ridden early fuels and have any comments I'd be all ears...
Looks like around 2006-2007 maybe?
My brother in law has one like that, they are pretty different to my 2012 model, a lot less happens when you sheet out, they just look misshapen but keep pulling pretty hard.
looks like an 07 - one of the best fuels in my opinion. does it have the wave grenade 5th line set up?
there should be a panel on the wingtip with a serial number and build date
pm me if you want to sell it.
if it came in a black carry bag with a shoulder strap it's 05, if it came in a black and red backpack type bag it's 06 onwards
Definitely 05...i still have mine and take it out occasionally. It is a great kite and well ahead of its time 15 years ago....same colours as well!!
Yeah I have two of those - 13m sizes. Best effen kite ever invented! I still fly them and they spin on a dime. If there is a kite out there from the 2005 era, that is it! Any other, throw them in the bin!
Yeah, 2005. 2006 are 5 line and come in a black shoulder bag, 2007 come in a newer red bag. Also 2006 have skulls on the strut's.. I have 2005-6-7 fuels still. And newer 1's. Great kite's.
