Naish 07 Boxer SLE 10 weeks and coming to bits.
I bought a Naish Boxer SLE about 10 weeks ago. The kite was new. It gets a fair bit of use and gets treated well. Weeks 1-9 were excellent, the kite flys great etc, etc. Week 10, the bridle snaps causing the kite to loop on the power lines, the safety is inoperable as that is the part of the bridle that broke. I checked the bridle line and there is no wear it just broke. Today went out for a session, 15 to 20 knots, one crash, cold day landed the kite with assistance, 5 minutes after it was put on the ground the bladder bursts through a strut seam. I checked the other struts and another one has broken stitching both in the same place as the other one. They aren't even wear points and the kite hasn't been over inflated. Ive got c kites that are 4 years old and have taken a beating and haven't given me as many problems. I was going to buy a helix or a cult but not if they are the same build quality as my SLE. Please comment if you've had similar problems or if you've had no problems, maybe its just this kite. Might have to dust of the old reliable 03/04 c kites.
