hi , depends which one . i started on monkey tribes and i have to say they [c kite ] were terrible to learn on. the griffin would be ok to learn on but wouldn`t pay alot of money on it as there fabric and inflation has had bad reviews.
I saw a few monkey griffiths in Europe - thought they looked pretty good for the money you pay - didn't look much different to the Best kites they were next too. I've heard they didn't have the best rep a few years back - anyone flown any recently?
A mate mine kinda fly's for em. He flew the new griffith the other day and liked it. It's a nice looking kite but the chicken loop looked all wrong to me. He said it has less depower compared to last years tho. Hope this helps
