Hi,
Ive just brought myself a PANSH ACE 6M and i'm chuffed.The kite is in great condition with lines,handles and killers included.The only concern i have are the lines,i've heard they are crap and most people replace them with better quality ones like Flexifoil.
If i DO replace them,what are the EXACT legnth/best ones to get please?

Cheers guys Steve.

Standard length tends to be about 25m, depending on what you want to do with the kite you have a choice of 220lbs or 360lb lines. Breaklines tend to be about 120lbs.

Thanks for the info Owain,much appreciated.Well,i would just like to jump with the kite at the mo, 'try' and get some air with it,having said that what lines do you suggest please?
Mind you,if the lines look in good condition i suppose they will be ok to use? will it make any difference if i just keep them on?

Many Thanks Steve.

I've never seen Pansh lines so not really able to answer with too much knowledge. Maybe worth trying to find out what the breaking strength of the pansh lines are because the last thing you want to do is go jumping and have a line snap while you are 4 foot off the ground!

HI
I had pansh ace6m exactly like yours. This lines are fine, they will not brake or anything like this. The thing why people complain is they are not pre-stretched really well so they becoming a different lenght after a while. Yours has been used before so this is (should be) sorted already, but if you feel that kite pulls to one side when you keeping it in the zenith when handles are kept together - check the lenghts and make adjustments at handles.
thats it. they are fine, just not as good as the good ones ;] they feel heavy but you shouldnt be concerned. Im like nearly 90kg, have been loads of time in the air with this kite, nothing wrong happened. do a good inspection though for tear and wear cos as Owain said 'the last thing you want to do is go jumping and have a line snap while you are 4 foot off the ground'
p.s. pansh ace, thats a wild one, kicked my ass a good few times ;]

Thanks for the info,thats very interesting to me as i'm new to this but lovin' it!
Much appreciated,
Steve.
