    Best kites?

    So I've got a Tigress "Bite This"kite.Two of the spars broke on it during it's test flight.After repeated e-mails to them,with no replies,I've decided to purchase another,from a better company.After two days on the bank,last week,seeing some of the local high-liners flying a black kite with a tail,I'm guessing it might be the "go-To".Who makes it?Where can I get one?
    Thanks,Bobby.

    Boston Big Game kite hands down is the easiest kite i have ever flown. Inexpensive and well made.

    Boston big game kites are very easy to fly.GH bait has them, and the aftco kite clip kits.

    I've got both Boston Big game & Power Sled Kites.
    I've used both on different wind condition days and like both.
    But in my opinion I like the Power Sled a bit more as it gets distance from the boat better than the Boston big bame.
    The BBG goes up very easy but in strong wind goes straight up and not away from the boat.
    I've got 2 of each and 1 smaller (10 inch) power sled (10 in goes up easier on light wind days)
    Clips, I have Aftco goldfinger. 1 rod double clip rigged, 1 rod single rigged.
    John Bunnar in Duxbury has the Power sled kites.
    Bob @ Green hbr B&T has the Boston Big game.
    After dealing with strong winds 1 day this past week I'm going to break out one of my Electramates and rig it for my kite reel
