The Buster is a nice entry level kite.

The quality of the kite is very good and the lineset is ok. The carry bag and the kite killers are not much.

The bag is very light nylon in which the sewing has started to pull out, and one of my kite killers snapped off at the wrist strip - albeit in gusty conditions.

The kite flys very well with very nice graphics (3m red). It is very stable and very easy to launch. It has nice controlled pull and is very controllable all over the window - I really enjoy flying it. A bonus also having an adjustable attack setting in a kite at this price.

For an entry level kite with reasonable quality at a reasonable price it is worth it. It's not an Ozone, but it's not cheap rubbish either - the cost savings have been on the bag and killers and to some extent the lineset - however the kite is of a nice quality (albeit not as waterproof a blackant's Ozone Cult !!).

I have an Ozone Flow coming - so I will be interested to compare the two.

cheers steve
