Hornet II Characteristics |
Easy Handling
Because the Hornet II may be the first 4-line kite people fly, the kite has been developed to respond well to basic 2-line steering input. This gives you the ability to control the kite with ease while getting used to 4-line flying. Right from the start you will enjoy flying this kite, while slowly getting to know the benefits of a 4-line control.
|
Smooth Solid Power
The Hornet II delivers solid power at the edge of the wind window. You can park the kite and fully concentrate on your buggy or board skills. However, when flying it across the wind window the power build-up is not too aggressive, which prevents you from being pulled right out of your buggy or off the board.
|
Extreme Stability
The profiles used in the Hornet II give the kite the stability required in an all round entry-level kite. It is especially stable at the zenith or on the edge of the wind window. This allows you to focus on getting in a buggy or on a board, even in gusty conditions.
