GKPI Factory Outlet

If you have ever visited a real factory outlet store, then you know what this page is all about. Bargains!

We have product over-runs at marked-down prices, discounted factory seconds, and special values on demo kites or slightly damaged and repaired returns. We also have some special purchases listed for you. In each case, we'll explain what the status is of products we offer.

A note to AKA members: The Association policy is that you get a 10% discount off the regular list price of a purchase, or the sale price -- whichever is lower. Most Factory promotions are for more than 10% off. When that is the case, we unfortunately cannot give you both the AKA discount and the Factory discount..

Ribbon 7.5
Six Ribbons
Rainbow

I just received an interesting call.

An old friend is cleaning out his kite shed and found an original Peter Lynn Octopus dating back to the early 1990's. The kite has been flown three times -- on grass, not sand -- and is in pristine condition. Colors are bright pink with black accents.

The interesting part is the size. This one is mid-way between a middi and a maxi. It is 67 feet long and 8 feet wide. The long and narrow size was never put into production so this one is a unique collectible. Asking price is $2750.

If you are interested, drop me a note.

    Priced at $350. each Spirit is imported from England. They are a bit hard to get. But we have several in stock.

    Just in from Hank Manseau: Spirit is probably the best-flying inflatable I have ever had the pleasure of flying. I typically fly it on 80# line and it is an incredibly graceful and efficient kite with a very good lift to drag ratio. I find that it flies extremely well from 7-8 mph to 20 mph. Beyond that range it becomes unstable. The bottom line is... this is a GREAT kite!

    Eagle Rokkaku

    TEMPORARILY BACK-ORDEREDGom-Kaku: Here's a kick-butt cool rokkaku that is perfect for fighting or for fun.

    The bold image may look familiar. And we'd be proud to have you fly it.

    The "Gom-Kaku" is fully appliquéd, six feet tall, and light framed so it will stay in the sky when the opposition is struggling to stay aloft. All corners are encased to minimize tipping points. And our unique o-ring tensioners keep the spine secure and make sure the sections don't get lost when you fold it up.

    We normally sell our limited-edition appliqued roks for $175. Even the stock designs from other folks go for $90. But as a promotional special, we're offering this extraordinary kite at an extraordinary price -- just $80!! So give us a call and we'll put our colors in your sky.
