Fabric:- RadSails Pro kites are made with 3/4ozs. Rip-Stop Nylon fabric. Trailing edges are reinforced and Bridles are sewn, sheathed Spectra fiber. Flying Lines:- Each kite comes complete with Spectra fiber flying lines suitable for its' size and Quad-Line Control Handles with unique "Winder Caps". These molded caps keep both handles together and form a winder for line storage. Line length is approximately 82ft. As with all sports equipment exposed to natural elements such as wind, sea water, dust, sand and sunlight, life expectancy varies. With heavy use in these conditions, RadSails Pro kites can be expected to remain operationally effective for a minimum of 2 years. Of course, with moderate use and care, this time period can be lengthened considerably. To optimize performance, it is suggested that equipment be updated and/or replaced routinely. |
![]() Each
RadSails Pro kite comes in a sturdy back-pack with Instructions, Control Handles, Flying Line
and DVD. This is a technically advanced kite with internal cross bracing, sewn Bridles attached at
well reinforced points on the underside and clean Leading Edge, thanks to the mesh covered
air inlet vents. With an aspect ratio above 3:1, RadSails Pro provide good edge-of-wind
flight making for improved upwind performance. Predictable and easily controlled, these
kites are suitable for entry level pilots and experienced fliers too. Resembling the
early Blade to some degree, RadSails Pro kites have good "lift" which contributes to getting
good "air". As wind speed increases, there's plenty of power on tap with these striking power
traction kites. Though the smaller sizes are intended for strong winds and the larger sizes for light
wind conditions, the operating range of each RadSails Pro will largely depend on the flyers
skill level with this type of kite.
Getting started:- Whether flying for fun or Traction Kiting, the RadSails Pro is
a worthy Quad Line Foil. The 2.0 and 3.0 make great recreational kites, as well as good
training sizes for beginners, or higher wind kites for experienced pilots. No matter what
type of kite you use for Kite Traction, there are a number of things to remember when
selecting the best size to start with. The RadSails Pro to use will depend on the Surface; (Skis
on snow or ice, Kite Buggy on soft or hard sand, grass or hard ground, or Kite Board on
water), the Wind Speed; flyer Skill and Experience and flyer Weight.
Whether the flyer is a novice or has a lot of Traction Kiting experience, the best choice
is the smallest kite that will produce enough power to move. It is essential not
to be overpowered, not just because it's obviously safer, but upwind travel will be
easier and less power is easier to manage. A small to mid-size RadSails Pro is ideal to get
familiar with control on solid ground in modest steady wind. Once you are confident that you
can control the kite, then progress to Kite Buggy, Skis or Kite Landboard. |
![]() These kites produce considerable pull and are not suitable for inexperienced flyers. Always learn to control the kites before attempting kite traction activities. Sensible saftey precautions should be followed when flying these kites and protective clothing, especially sturdy shoes and a helmet should always be worn when using them for traction. Read instructions and safety warnings in with every kite. |
