G-Kites - Lifters |
|
Lifter kites do a little be extra. Not only to they look good in the sky. They are also designed to remain stable and carry a load of tails, drogues, line art and spinners. The idea is that you can create more than just a kite in flight. You can create a show! There is nothing like flying a big, colorful inflated kite. The thrill of just hanging on to it is impossible to describe. The power it generates is exhilarating. And you get a special satisfaction from the care and skill required. |

Attach them to the flying line, or connect to tabs at the base of the kite. The special ram-air design provides increased lift and stability in a wide range of wind conditions. Click here to see the Sled with our Pennant as a tail. At just $88 each, you won't find a better platform for the money. We're making sleds in red, yellow, and purple - each with black and white accents. Hyper-flexible spars give the kite form, but are virtually indestructible. You can even bend the kite in half for transport!

BullDog Parafoil: Part parachute, part airfoil, and known for their incredible lift, these "work horse" parafoils are designed for flying and lofting a show in the toughest conditions.
Bulldogs were originally developed for lifting the famed beach shows on the Oregon Coast. Daily performances required easy handling and long-term dependability. Sparless construction means easy storage and transport. Available in rainbow, warm, or cool color combinations for $350 each

Advanced kites generally come without flying line. That�s because many kiters already have line and don't want to pay for a new set with each kite they buy. If you need line, check out the options listed below. |

Choose red, orange, yellow, green, blue, or purple. "Roks" fly well in all winds and are excellent for intermediate or advanced fliers. They will also hold tube tails or line art.

Sand Anchors: You arrive on the beach ready to fly, look around, and there isn't anything in sight to tie off to. What to do?? Simple -- just pull a sand anchor out of your bag.
Smaller anchors will hold kites that pull up to 50 pounds. Larger anchors will hold larger kites, up to and including the giants if you follow the instructions we've included. Click here for a photo.
