One of kiteflying’s best kept secrets
Remarkably fun in light winds, Vertical Visuals’ Roller climbs steeply when you take line in and glides out gently when you let line out, so you can pump it up to better wind. Sensitive to line control, it’s maneuverable, like a big, slow fighter kite that can fly steady. Made of ripstop nylon with wood spars used because flight tests determined that wood resulted in the best flight characteristics for the kite. 3’-6” x 3’-9”. 45” case (This product has a shipping length greater than 42" and can not be shipped to most international addresses). Wind range: 4 to 20 mph. Less with practice. Use 75-lb. Dacron line. Instructions included in the inside front pocket of case.
