Postage and packing is extra but can be agreed before the sale.
Standard Nirvana
The Standard was originally bought by someone in Ireland from Tradewind Kites, but returned as it had been damaged in the post (they'd tried to fold it and broke some of the spars which made six small holes in the sail - see photos below). Richard Marsh repaired the sail and used it for a few months as his personal kite. I bought it off him in February 2005.
The kite has soft edge connector type yo-yo fittings and an external spine weight.
Vented Nirvana
The Vented was bought new from Tradewind Kites in April 2005. There is no damage and it still has the original half-covers for the outer vents. Overall the kite is in very good condition.
The kite has R-Sky yo-yo fittings and an internal spine weight.

Ultra-Light Nirvana
The Ultra-Light was also bought new from Tradewind Kites in April 2005. It has one small repair where a spar went through the sail just below the lower-left leading edge fitting. Other than that the kite is in excellent condition.
The kite has R-Sky yo-yo fittings and an internal spine weight.
