It's not rope, it's kite string.

Nothing against GPKI, but since they are carrying them.... you can find them at IntoTheWind.com

Was these not in the Premier new range,can't remember where I see them now but I do know that the Premier 2009 range is very lacking in new inflatables...like none   .Looks like we will have to wait and see what Dave has coming out this year .
by the way a while ago I see a picture of some inflatable ostrich one with its head buried in the ground and the other standing ,anyone know who made them? I remember that they was with a load of ground turtles/tortoise if that helps...

I just got my ITW catalog in the mail and saw these in there.  If they offered these in a 50ft model most of us would buy one.  I kinda liked the myriapod myself.

See you on the field,

Myriapod is 13ft and a slow spinner can be lifted by a parafoil 10 or similar lifter.
