Comments about Prism Designs Quantum Kite:

I have recently been introduced to stunt kits and after playing with a friends kite for just an hour I had to get my own! I got this kite and I have been very very happy with it. It's fairly simple to set up, easy to launch, and can fly well in low (5mph) and high winds(25mph). In high winds it's quite fast and has a lot of pull, which is really fun! Because my friend introduced me to it I knew how to fly, for a total beginner it might initially be a bit confusing but ultimately it's easy to fly the kite, (start with 10mph, enough to easily keep the kite up but not so much you crash all the time) Definitely a very fun toy, I highly recommend it for all ages!

Comments about Prism Designs Quantum Kite:

I've been fooling around with a smaller stunt kite for a while, but never got the hang of it. This kite changed everything for me. Very forgiving but still responsive enough to learn good techniques. Flies well in moderate wind and has a very positive but not overpowering pull to it. This is more fun than any other kite I own!

Comments about Prism Designs Quantum Kite:

I know this is probably a bit more than you wanted to spend on a kite. But it's a great long-term value as you will tons of use out of it. Unlike other stunt kites, the Quantum can do all of the tricks and is a great first kite. The kite has a "kinetic dissipator" that is a shock absorber for when you crash. The other stunt kites don't have this feature and it makes it harder to break a part of the kite. It has an adjustable "radical" setting for when you want to take things to the next level. The quantum has a wide wind range and pulls very hard if the wind is strong.

Comments about Prism Designs Quantum Kite:

This is the best kite in the line. The power you can feel through the lines is incredible. It is a little easier to fly than the other smaller kites but just as much fun if not more! I was teaching a 12 year old after just an hour of use. During that hour I learned how to dive, buzz the ground, do loops and more! Lots of fun!
