Power Kites

• Popular with teenagers and adults
• Exhilarating to fly and control
• Combine pulling power and stunt kite-like control
• Not suitable for children

Among the most popular types today, power kites are based on inflatable foil shapes. Manufactured with high-performance tough fabric, power kites create 'pull'. The larger the kite, the more power it produces. Power kites usually have two lines and are completely soft, whilst other models have spars - these can also be 'stacked' with other power kites to create even more pull.

You'll typically see power kites used for recreational flying on the beach, where flyers skid along the ground, or jump into the air as they harness the kites' incredible pulling power. Power kites are not difficult to fly, so you can expect to pick up the basic flying moves in no time at all.
