Easy Handling:
The Peter Lynn Hornet responds very precisely to your input, but is still really forgiving in flight. The kite steers easily with simple two line control movements so you can control your kite right from the start and take your time to learn the basic four line flying skills.
Constant Power:
The Peter Lynn Hornet delivers a very smooth constant power. You don't need to steer the kite up and down to get power, the power builds up smoothly right after bringing the kite down into the wind window. So you can keep the kite flying at the edge of the wind window and concentrate on your buggy or board skills. This makes the Peter Lynn Hornet the perfect kite to make one's first steps with in any of the fun and challenging kite traction sports.
Stability:
The Peter Lynn Hornet is a very stable foil, so there is no need to be focused on your kite at all times to keep it flying. As the profile is designed for optimal stability, especially at the Zenith and the edge of the window, you can concentrate on improving your buggying, landboarding or snowkiting skills. If you are after pure fun without hassle, this is the kite you need!
Constant Flying Speed:
The Hornet has a very predictable flying behavior and its flying and turning speed are predictable and constant throughout the whole range of sizes. The kite does not accelerate all of a sudden, pull you out of your buggy, or off your board so you can concentrate on improving your skills.
How to choose your size:
The size wing you choose depends on the amount of wind you wish to use it in. A two meter kite works best from 5-20 mph winds and is overpowered by a 25 mph windspeed. Compare this to the eight meter kite that works best in 2-5 mph winds and is overpowered by a 10 mph windspeed. Please note that each size has its own colour scheme.
The Hornet comes as a complete package including the kite, bag, 4-line Eva foam handles, kite killers, Dyneema flying line set with numbered stitched sleeves, groundstake with groundstake pocket, and a Peter Lynn 4 line bridled foils manual.
