Mamba...
The Mamba turns 10 this year. While not even a blink in geological terms, 10 years is practically ancient in "sport kite years". The Mamba's longevity is especially noteworthy when you consider that its sail and bridle are essentially unchanged from the very first prototype back in April of 2000. The Mamba is one of those rare products of a craftsman's mind and hands that come out right the first time.
Why has the Mamba survived, while other Blue Moon kites have come and gone in the last 10 years? Simple, it's still fresh, and still relevant. The Mamba is still being "discovered" by new generations of sport kite flyers, as it welcomes them to the "Blue Moon feel".
One of our good friends wrote this a few years ago - "I call the Mamba the 'Gold Standard' of kites. The craftsmanship and pure flying joy of the Mamba is a tough standard that so far none have exceeded."
