Ordered the 9m2 Aruba kite (Black Edition) with the bar last week and received it within 3 days thank you. I never heard about you guys so I took a leap of faith by ordering this new brand “flyHelium”, because of the price and really liked the design. Really cool and different from all these other brands with their tribal themes. So far I have not been disappointed. The workmanship and quality rivals that of some well known brands but most of all I went out today for the first time and the kite handled beautifully. I did have to tune up the bar to the kite and that did require a few trial and error adjustments and the help of one of my buddies, but once done I got good power and rapid handling. My buddy tried to talk me out of purchasing it and going for a safe brand like Canbrinha, but now that he has seen it and tested himself as well I think he will be ordering from you guys in the very near future. In any case keep the good work and please keep those prices low so that we can enjoy this sport without having to break our piggy bank! PS: I will probably be ordering a different size soon.
