The Peter Lynn Hornet Power Kite is the ideal introduction traction kite for recreational flying and buggy/board traction. It is a predictable managable power kite but does still have a sting in it's tail in higher winds. The kite is very well made with good strong long lasting Mirai fabric. The bridle i made from sleeved dyneema and is stitched for strength and reduced tangles. This kite is head and shoulders above many cheaper beginner kites and is a great lower lift kite that is ideal for first time flyers. The lines and whole package are refreshingly high quality and comes with all you would ever need including handles with killers and ground stake and instructions.

We recommend the 3m and 4m kites for adult users wanting to progress to traction. If you have any questions about the kite please don't hesitate to contact us. It is also worth considering the Peter Lynn Twister Kite if you are looking to progress to boarding or jumping with the kite.

Fast, Easy Set Up
The Hornets flying line and new 4-line Peter Lynn handles (colour coded and foam padded to ensure a soft comfortable grip) are numbered at each end with the corresponding number on the correct pigtail on the kite. This means you'll never connect the wrong flying line to the wrong part of the kite or handle, making it easy to set up your new Peter Lynn Hornet and start having fun straight away!

New Safety Gear
New easy to recognize left and right kite killers ensures a trouble-free flying experience knowing you always have the handles in the correct hand and if you get into difficulty releasing the handles means the Hornet floats gently to the ground, waiting until you’re ready to go again!

Material & Graphics
Constructed using water repellent Mirai fabric, for the top and bottom skins means you can fly knowing the Hornet is protected against the elements (including UV) prolonging its life. Graphics on the top and bottom skins means it looks excellent too!

Dyneema Flying Lines & Bridle
New 2008 Peter Lynn colour coded Dyneema flying lines are reinforced with stitched sleeving. All coloured bridles lines are stitched to reduce drag, which ensures your kite always maintains its shape and also prevents tangles when flying.

Reinforcements
Reinforced leading and trailing edges, along with the use of heavy duty material on the ribs, makes sure the Hornet is strong and robust enough to withstand hard ground impacts! Double sewn bottom skin and back-tacked bridle tabs ensure extra durability and strength, making certain the kite is reinforced where it's needed.

Profile & Aspect Ratio
The D-ribbed centre section of the Hornet increases the smooth, clean shape of the canopy to optimise speed and eliminate distorting without the use of extra bridles. Each size of the Hornet has been specifically designed to keep the same flying feeling and characteristics throughout the entire range.

Velcro Loops & Dirt/Sand Outlets
The Hornet's Velcro loops makes sure you can easily pack away your kite without the chance of bridles getting tangled. The Velcro outlets at either end of the kite also ensure you can remove any sand or dirt from inside the kite with ease.
