Essential Gear
Buggy Selection
Fortunately, choosing a buggy is easier than choosing a kite. Again its easier to classify buggies into one of three sections, Beginner, Intermediate and Advance or Race. There are no real restrictions which can be placed on choosing a buggy. Most people start out with a Beginners buggy and progress into more expensive toys.
Here's a list of the buggies in each category, again this is my classification so other people may have a different opinion.
Beginner
- PL Competition
- Flexifoil Buggy
- PL Folding
Intermediate
- Libre Special
- PL Race
- Libre VMax (could also fit in Advanced)
Advanced / Race
- Libre Full Race
- Libre Hardcore
- Predator Race
- XXRacer
- Cameleon Pagona
- Cameleon Iguana
- Parastorm
Buggies in the Beginners section will be relatively small in size, will weigh very little and will have short back axles. As such they are quite easy to maneuver however will be very twitchy and unstable at higher speeds. These buggies are good for Freestyle flyers, however not so good for high speeds and racing. These are the cheapest buggies on the market.
The Intermediate section contains buggies which are a little more "chunky" than those in the Beginners section and as such are more stable at higher speeds. They typically have a wider back axle.
Advanced or Race buggies are the ultimate. They are generally very large and very heavy. They typically have the ability to adjust the camber of the wheels and are ultra stable at high speeds. They are usually over engineered and are a very sensible purchase. The only down side to these buggies is the cost. They are the most expensive.
Buy the best one you can afford and don't forget that you will have to transport your buggy around and store it when it's not being used.
