Background: I was once a beginner in kitesurfing. I read everything I could and started with the Delta trick, then bought a 10 foot wide Prism Tensor 3.1. I've gone through the unpack pre-flight routine a few times. But as much as it was 3.1, it was a beast. I made the mistake of letting my wife hold it for a second and she fell to the ground faster than I could say "Be careful." BEWARE in high winds! If you can't handle it, then it's a strong wind! So I thought it would be fun to have a little kite that I could keep in the bottom of my backpack and pull out when the wind blows. I paid so little money and expected little. The first time I could hardly fly in light winds. The other day on Sunday we went to the beach to get some air and I brought them with me. Did I mention he was small? The wind was better and it flew pretty well. Although I still think it doesn't rise high enough, I found it to have a fairly narrow window and not much draft. But my wife and I had fun. What am I thinking now? 1. Some hang gliding experience is helpful. After unwinding the line, you need to know ONE knot to connect the fly lines to the bridles. Sand the trailing edge with some sand, step back, hold the lines in each hand, to the straps, tuck your hands inside. Then one puff and you're in business. If you don't know where to attach the straps, how to route the line and kite, you can do a little work. With a little experience, or if someone shows you, you can be having fun in no time. But this applies to all stunt kites.2. A small kite needs wind. Unlike large kites, which don't need as much wind, small ones do. It's great when the wind is too strong to be unsafe for the big ones, but only good for the little ones. It's not the dragon's fault, it's just the nature of things.3. Adjustment is not available as is - I feel like if I can adjust the angle of attack a bit I can enjoy it in lighter winds. Although the manual mentions adjustment on a sheet, this method was for front and rear bridles and this kite has 3 ABC lines. Each ends with a loop that must be tied together to connect to the fishing line. I think I need to set up a variable setup with one on AB and the other on C.4. Yes, line breaks can improve performance, but . You invest more money in a cheap kite! qualitative. The seams are good. It's not Prism. The instructions are not very detailed. But for that amount of money, the pleasure is no less than Prism. I could enjoy this thing with my family more carefree than a big kite. In summary, this Hengda 1.4 is a great value small parafoil trick kite in high winds for kiters of all ages and skill levels.
