| The Peter
Lynn Vortex is the perfect fun kite! With its very fast
turning, you’ll have an excellent ride in waves, but
also a great time just cruising, wake-style riding or free
styling. Kite-loops are a piece of cake. Entry-level riders
will enjoy the ease in getting onto the board, as a result
of the predictable nature of the Vortex. For the same reason
its also easy to re-launch this kite after a crash on the
water.
Flying characteristics
Sharp turning
The Vortex has a very direct and sharp turn. This is great
for cruising, wave riding, wake-style and freestyle riding.
It really is an excellent kite for kitelooping! The new
steering adjusters in the tips give you the ability to fine-tune
the turning style as well as the feel on the bar to your
personal liking.
Constant Pull
The Vortex has a constant pull, great when riding waves
or doing wake-style moves. Beginners will appreciate this
predictable behavior to help get back you on the board quicky
and easly.
Stability
The Vortex is extremely stable like all Twinskin kites,
making kite boarding easy from entry-level through to advanced
riding - start concentrating on your riding, not having
to worry about your kite!
Fast water re-launch
Due to the lower aspect ratio, the kite is very easy to
re-launch from the water. Spend more time riding and trying
new tricks, instead of trying to re-launch your kite!
Lift
The Vortex has good lift for easy freestyle moves. With
the Vortex, you easily get air and into some cool tricks
and transitions.
Features:
Lower aspect ratio for easier
water re-launch, quick turning and constant pull.
Flight adjuster allowing you to adjust the ‘feel’
of the kite to your personal riding style.
Steering adjusters allowing you to set the steering behavior
of the kite to your personal preference.
Dual inflation zippers placed on each tip, allowing you
to inflate your kite 100% with very little effort. Deflation
zipper to pack up fast and easy.
Launch assistant tag to ensure trouble-free self-launching.
Compact sticks for easy transport and storage
Safety systems
The Vortex is supplied with a bar with a special leash system,
to ride safe with maximum comfort. Spinning your bar after
doing a jump with a rotation, the leash and depower line
twist and so will the top lines. With the optional spreader
bar with a rotating hook, riders can easily untwist their
leash from the depower line and untwist their top lines.
The bar supplied with the Vortex is equipped
with a primary quick release and a safety leash with quick
release. When the safety system is activated, the Vortex
immediately loses all of its power and gently falls down
on the water.
Twinskin Technology
The Vortex is a Peter Lynn Twinskin kite. The kite consists
of two layers of fabric with a set of profiles in between.
When the kite crashes on the water, the taped seams as well
as the valves behind the air inlets prevent the air escaping
from the kite as well as any water getting in, for a quick
and easy re-launch.
Some of the great advantages of this style
of kite are:
Very clean airflow around the wing, both
the top skin and the bottom skin are shaped for maximum
performance and lift.
No bladders or tubes that can burst, the kite is more resistant
to wear & tear.
Even weight distribution as the complete kite is made of
the same material. This makes the kite incredibly stable.
No heavy leading edge causing the kite to luff. Ideal for
practicing new tricks.
Easy and cheap repairs as the material are all solid Chikara
Ripstop Nylon.
