Excellent kite in medium to strong winds. It flies rock-steady...like it's on rails! It's beautiful in the air, too. Great kite. |

What is your opinion of this product? |
At first I was a bit disappointed in this kite as it would not fly in lighter winds. However, now that winter is here it has turned out to be an excellent kite for our strong, gusty winds. It's very stable and effortlessly lifted a couple of 15' Ribbon Tails attached to the lower attachment tab in winds approaching 30 mph. In stronger winds the Elevation tends to loop and dive just like a delta so you have to stay on top of it. It also generates a very strong pull in high winds and I've found the Windbreaker winder much better than a Hoop Spool in these conditions. Assembly is a little more complex than for a delta as there are six cross spars to insert. However, once you get used to it you can put it together in a couple of minutes but you defintitely want to do it where it's not too windy. Overall, it's a wonderfully stable kite for winds over 10 mph and an excellent buy. |
