    REI Members get back an estimated $ 3.20 on this item as part of their annual member refund.

    The REI Member Dividend

    The REI dividend is a unique benefit of membership in the REI co-op. It's comprised of your member refund—typically 10% back on eligible purchases—and/or your REI Visa® card rebates.

    Each March, active REI members and REI Visa cardholders who earned a rebate receive a refund in the form of an annual dividend notice.

    Only active members receive annual dividend notices. To maintain your active status as an REI member, you need to make net merchandise or shipping purchases of at least $10 per year, unless you joined that year. Member numbers are issued in one name and only that person receives the member refund. Your number can be used by others in your family, but it cannot be transferred to someone else.

    Questions? Call us at 1-800-426-4840 for more about your dividend or its redemption.

        Comments about Prism Designs Stowaway Diamond Kite:

        I've been using pocket parafoil kites on hikes and bike rides, but find they are very difficult to fly. This kite folds down very small, but is quite rigid once assembled. This kite is easy to launch and difficult to crash. Quality materials are used, although care must be taken when repacking the kite to avoid tearing.

        Comments about Prism Designs Stowaway Diamond Kite:

        This kite is so fun. I throw it in the pack. Who cares what it weighs? (Which isn't much). I highly recommend it. REI even replaced mine, no questions asked when I broke a strut in a huge gust that came up the col. Hike early, Hike often. PS Don't forget to race the dark once in a while.

          Comments about Prism Designs Stowaway Diamond Kite:

          I bought this kite for my 2 year old son and I to fly at the beach. What an easy kite to fly! My son and I had a blast at OBX with this kite. I linked it to a fence railing with a carabiner and it sailed for 8 hours unattended. I have since bought a Prism Jazz and SnapShot 1.2 for more advanced flying but still fly the Stowaway at every outing.

            Once again Prism quality and a great design come through. This is a great version of the classic diamond kite that flies exceptionally well. Easy to fly and more stable than any other kite of like desgin. Don't waste your money on cheaper kites. This one is great and will last.

              Kite assembled easily.
              Line was a tangled mess. Only about 1/3 of the line was usable. Very disapointing for the kids to watch the "new" kite and the line was a tangled mess.

                Comments about Prism Designs Stowaway Diamond Kite:

                This kite is great for enjoying the good ol days of kite flying without the headache or lackluster designs of the early 90s. The stowaway kite is genius! folding into a nice compact package that literally anyone can fly. caveat: as long as there is a steady breeze.

                And even if you don't ind yourself an avid kite flyer, the artwork on the kite itself is great to hang up in the office, above the cubicle, or in your child's room.

                Prism is a solid kite manufacturer and is based out in washington. Their customer service is also fantastic as well!
