Product Description

Addiction Sport Kite HPKK Mod 2 Package- is the secondary stage modification that requires Addiction Mod 1 to be completed first. Addiction Mod 2 takes the kite to a whole new level of performance. We redesign the trim systems to allow the kite to fly comfortably in winds up to 24mph. We re-tune the sail further and re-camber the leading edges. These modifications allow the Addiction to fly like an advanced kite that can spin and get on its back and “stall” anywhere you want it to, even in 24mph winds and all on its original 80#x80ft lines.

Once your Addiction has been modified to stage Mod 2, it can no longer be flown as an original (standard) or Mod 1 Addiction.

Addiction Mod 2 is a further modification to Addiction Kite Mod 1 and includes:
         *  Further re-camber to the leading edge.
         *  Re-engineer the original frame.
         *  Complete re-tune the bridle with adjustments to allow maximum trick-ability in 4 - 24 mph winds.
         *  A skilled flier can expect the Addiction Mod 2 to Yo Yo, Backspin, Jacobs ladder, stall and spin in 4 - 24- mph winds and more.
         *  The new characteristics of your Addiction will be comparable to any $150 - $200 Intermediate kite.
         *  Skill Level: Beginner / Intermediate / Advanced
         *  Recommended: Use your stock lines that come with your kite until you are completely familiar with the Mod 1 modification and then replace them with the same weight but
             thinner lines, i.e. Laser Pro Gold.

Addiction Mod 2 improves handling, spinability, turning and stall characteristics. With a little practice, your Addiction Mod 2 will be able to dead-stall at 15 ft. off the ground in 15-20 mph winds and allow you maximum control over the kite with a minimal amount of "dance."

Carefully pack and ship your Addiction Kite to Harbor Wind & Kite Co. We will retro fit (Modify) your Addiction and ship back to you in usually 3-4 days. Don't have an Addiction? Purchase an Addiction and a Mod 1 & 2 Package and we will modify your new kite and ship to you ASAP.

When you purchase the Mod 1 & 2 package at the same time, take $10.00 off the purchase price. Addiction Kite Mod 1 & 2 purchased separately costs $60.00. When purchased together, the price is only $50.00 A fantastic upgrade to your Addiction.

NOTE: The Addiction Mod 2 Package is a modification of your kite only. HP KiteKrafters do not include an Addiction Kite in the Mod 1 or Mod 2 Package. Kite must be purchased separately.

  1. More on the Upgrade

    Posted by Dave from Malibu on 7th Apr 2009

    So now I've gotten back home and flying again. Here's the MOD 2 package as I see and fly it, compared to Jim or Dales Addiction's kite. In the wind around here, the mod 2 is way slower through the wind Power zone! It also stalls with ease in the center of the window up to about 18 MPH standing still.
    Now in tricking, the kite is a lot easier to throw around in the air. It is slower, so it is easier to stay ahead of. It back spins now a lot easier than before. It axles with ease, yet won't really double axle well. I've learned the trick of how to get it into a fade and now I can do that easy enough in almost any wind I'm flying in. Just gotta get my feet moving when it's blowing hard.
    The Tighter Bridle and faster handling has allowed this kite to turn on a dime. It can flic flac and cascade all over the place. However " I " must admit I had to really pay attention to my punch turns rather than pull turns.
    The stall characteristics are really Impressive in this modification. You can set your place in the air as well as close to the ground. MY problem is heavy hands in a flexible kite. Snap stalls are easy in 20MPH winds and landings are a snap, with little movement in my feet. That is "IF" I do the move right.
    AGAIN my thanks goes out to you Mr Ed and Mr Buz. Ed you are the one who got me into this kite and THANK YOU for allowing me to just Fly your kite one day and see for myself. What a deal it really is. A Super kite that turns tight and fast, and now does tricks a "Lot" easier. See you both soon.
    Dave


  2. AWSOME UPGRADE

    Posted by Dave from Malibu on 26th Mar 2009

    Buz and ED, I had to write this up once I saw the site go on line. My friends and I all fly addictions out of your shop. I was the only one who had the Mod 1 package and it was a Good deal for the winds we usually have here in the Malibu and shores area.
    Yet when Jim and Dale got their kites and I then flew EDs fully modified kite. in almost no wind. it was like I had to have this. My kite flies when theirs wont. It flies so much slower than theirs when the wind comes up and is pushing 20mph. It is just a dead stall into a trick away and is fun again, in these High winds.
    Thank you BOTH for all your work on a Great Kite made Better
