This gear isn’t dangerously old, which is a concern in the kite community.
If somebody is on a budget, this could be your bag.

Description applies to both kites -
- The Crossbow is an older, but well regarded design. It is a Bow kite. Great depower. Suitable for beginners, but even experienced guys will like the way it handles gusty days.
- Yellow
- No repairs, none needed
- Hold air. I left them pumped up over night in my garage, and they were solid.
- Both are in good shape.
Control Bars
- These kites use a 2:1 control bar. So they won't work with other bars. The benefit is good fast depower, the drawback is higher bar pressure.
- The 7m bar is good to go. The chicken loop has been replaced with a larger one, but I can trim it down if requested. Or you could just buy one for $20.
*- The 12m does come with a bar. But one of the front lines lost its pigtail.
- I would personally put the good lines on the bigger bar and use it for both kites.
- CORRECTION - The good lines are going on the 12m bar now.
Bags
- The zippers need to be washed and lubed.
- I cut one open when I got impatient at the launch, but I cut it in the mesh extender so it still works.
- Washed and now they work well
Pump
- It is a standard yellow Liquid Force pump.
LF 130 Drop
- Nice surfy Jimmy Lewis design.
- A little heavy, but tough.
- 1.5” Fins (standard)
- Very nice straps/pads combo
LF 130 WLF - SOLD
- WLF stands for Wide Liquid Force
- 2” fins so you can ride it flat in light winds
- Shorter than other light wind boards. Better jumping. Speeds up rotations on rolls.
Cabrinha Impact Vest Harness
- Has some float to it, but is not an “Approved” Coast Guard PFD
- Very adjustable.
Post any questions here. That way, I can answer them for everybody with the same question.
