Works well, but a bit heavy
I really like this kite reel. I was able to wind up all 300M of a quality braided fishing line (0.62mm 150lbs) onto it with plenty more room to spare. It is plenty big for my average to small hand. It seems to be designed to be held by the left hand, unmodified.The ratcheting mechanism works really well and it is very handy to have to stop the line and just hold the kite. The braking mechanism works fine too.It is made of strong plastic material. It feels very solid, and therefore also quite heavy even without any lines.I would highly recommend this to kite enthusiasts.

ホールド感が良い!
左手のブレーキ操作で任意の箇所で止めることが出来る事とフリー、逆転防止切替スイッチと相まって、ストレスのない凧揚げが楽しめる。オプションの肩掛け用ストラップセットにより、1.5Kgの重さも苦にならないホールド感があります。

色々な・・・
機能が付いてて「ビックリ!」これで、この価格は納得です。しかし、まだ一度も使って無いので使いやすさの方は、良く分かりません・・・ただ、以前使っていた物より重量がある事は、確かです。

wow... what a wheel
order this one evening after drunk some whiskey. $70 for a kite line wheel! wtf??? ... oh, it arrived today and i was not disappointed. it is well engineered and packed with so much care, you can't hurt it if you drop the whole package from 2nd floor. the wheel works very smooth and with clutch to stop the back spinning. like a large fishing wheel. a free release will allow the wheel to fly free. it also come with its own bag and loop for shoulder strip. recently i got into fly bird kites (high aspect ratio kite). it tends to over fly and turn, dive. with this fast wheel, it makes fun to play the kite in sky. like falconry... a lot fun and blast

Love at first sight... and the affair continues on!
Hey! I bought a second kite reel! What more can I say! The only thing better than this kite reel is the service at Emma Kites! At first look and use you may wonder, "Why the expense of the upper ball bearing gimble?" That gimble is absolutely wonderful and allows you to set the kite up for a solely independent self launch and walk facing forward away from the kite spooling the line out behind while holding the real in front of you as you walk forward. "YUM!" What more can I say?It is rather large and heavy, I am involved in hard cardio construction work, athletic, and tip a weight scale North of 200lb. I haven't tried out this reel in my pre-teenaged Grandchildren's hands yet but expect no problems!Oh! I did sand some of the sharp casting parting lines and some of the square edges away with fine sandpaper … It just adds to the joy of use. I do this with all of my work tools and I just enjoy the tactical pleasant feel in my hands... I'm a very tactically connected to every thing I use in my hands!
