Review on πŸͺ Prism Synapse Parafoil Kite - Dual Line by Vinny Howard

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I was delighted with this kite

As a child I had several kites. They all sucked. They were too difficult to set up, or when I installed them I broke them, broke spikes or whatever it was that broke. I have taken this kite many times. I love that everything is already attached and ready to use. The first was in a park where there wasn't enough wind to fly. The closest was on the beach where there was a nice 10-15mph wind and I really got it blowing up. I've only flown single line kites without destroying them. You hold the rope and the kite takes off. Straight ahead if there's enough wind, so before launching this kite I watched a few YouTube videos showing how to fly a kite with a dueling line. Using what I learned from YouTube to not drag it to the floor and carry everything faster than necessary. I practiced some simple tricks like figure eights and exploring the windshed. I crashed it a few times but since it doesn't spike nothing happened and I just restarted it and sent it back. A few minutes after not crashing, I started doing a few spins and bomb diving and crashed a few more times. That first day I spent about two hours having fun with my new kite and I loved every moment. Flying this kite made me want to buy all sizes of Synapse kites and try other kites as well. This dragon is definitely fun to play with and it can't be broken if you break it. I had so much fun I even bought a 20ft tube tail to add some flair to my kite. So if you want to start something, check out this kite.
