Traction and Power Kiting!
Kite Buggies, Kite Boards and Kite Surfing

Kite Surf Buggy Fun Kite Surf

Whether you are flying across the desert, inches off the deck, skimming over the waves, or launching yourself into the air, power kiting is definitely the sport for the 21st Century!

    Kite Buggying -- Whether on grass, sand or dry lake bed there is nothing that compares to the feeling of racing just inches from the ground on a Stainless Steel Buggy. Highly maneuverable four line kites propel you as you adjust for optimum efficiency with your hands and steer the Buggy with your feet.

    Kite Surfing -- It's like surfing, hang gliding, and jet skiing all wrapped into one exhilarating package. Oversized maneuverable kites glide you over the waves and right up into the air.

GKPI is pleased to represent the best power and traction equipment to emerge from the kite industry. Feel free to call us about accessories, add ons, new produts, or a package price for a complete set up. And remember, your 10% AKA discount always applies.

Blade MkII Power Kite Blade MkII Power Kite Blade MkII Power Kite

Blade MkII Power Kite:

Blade MkII's are the latest development in ram-air inflated kites from Flexifoil Intl. Their high power output make them the number 1 choice for experienced kite buggiers and kiteboarders.

Each Blade kite comes in a sturdy carry-bag with instructions and a pair of Control Handles. Flying Lines are available separately. Features like tapered wing plan, through venting and gradual wing cross section tapering toward the wing tips, make Blades very efficient traction kites in the hands of experienced fliers.

Smaller sizes are intended for strong winds and the larger sizes for light wind conditions. The operating wind range of each Blade will largely depend on the flyers skill level with this type of kite.

C-Quad

Peter Lynn C-Quad:

C-Quads are neither soft kites nor framed kites but are of a hybrid design using single skins with flexible F.R.P. (Fiber Reinforced Plastic) stiffeners. Developed for water and land traction, these unique kites are made of Toray Chikara and framed with pultruded Carbon rods for leading edges (with the exception of the 2.2 which has a Fiberglas leading edge). They have proven to be very competitive in performance and price; for buggying, surfing and other traction kite uses.

Please Note: Special care is required when flying large and heavy pulling kites.

Kiteboarding and Kitebuggying are exciting sports which require kite flying experience and proper safety precautions. Seek professional advice before attempting any power kiting activity. We strongly recommend that you take lessons from a qualified instructor.

KiteBuggying and KiteBoarding, as featured on this site, are two of a number of 'advanced' powerkiting activities which can be dangerous. These activities should be attempted only when you have become an experienced power kite flier and are not suitable for small children. Always use the appropriate safety equipment (helmets, gloves, knee pads, elbow pads, sturdy shoes, personal floatation devices, etc.) and seek advice from an expert. All instructions and warnings accompanying these products must be strictly observed.

Large kites can be dangerous: When you fly them, you accept responsibility for any accidents that may result. GKPI assumes no liability for injury or damage.
