Prism Quantum Dual-line Stunt Kite

This kite is great. I have a Prism 4D. This kite needs a bit more wind, and with that, it is much more sturdy than the 4D. Setting up the leading edges requires one to use their head so that they do not break the connectors. The leading edge connection on the lower edges need to be pushed down and disconnected from the sail before being seated. If this is done, you won't break the connectors. Use your head and do not force these things from extreme angles and you will NOT break the kite on the first assembly. This thing can be adjusted for extreme fast and tight turns. Very fun kite that will pull you forward if you underestimate it's ability to harness the wind. Happy flying!So, I have now had this kite for quite a while. Since then, the pole that goes up the middle has long since worn through the nose of the kite and rendered it useless. I need to come up with a new piece of nylon to glue on to the front of the kite to hold the nose together as otherwise the pole sticks out of the fromt of the kite making it look like it has WOOD. All of my kites from this company have the same issue as the shock absorbtion method eventually punches a hold in the front of the kite. I hope they come up with a fix for this.

This is the first time I have reviewed a product on Amazon -We live in Central Washington, where there is plenty of wind. With the added time at home, I thought I'd try a stunt kite. We had one years ago when the kids were little and we'd go to Oregon coast. - 24 years ago.I wasn't sure about spending the money on this kite, but the reviews convinced me - and it is worth every penny of it.I have had it for almost 2 months and have flown it in some pretty strong winds - up to 30 mph.. Our front yard is about 1 acre, but the house creates some turbulance and we have a couple of cherry trees that offer some challenges. I have had a couple of unplanned crashes in these trees that resulted in getting an extension ladder, nippers, and a knife to cut some string. The Quantum is incredibly well made and durable.I normally fly solo, so it takes a bit to figure out how to launch it in strong winds by yourself. But, you will figure it out.I am so impressed by the design, & integrity of the Quantum, that I have purchased other Prism kites - The Flip and the Synapse 200.Don't be cheap, invest in quality and you will be glad you did.

Prisms mid the high-level kites are some of the best kites in industry. I have yet to buy a kite in that category that has not brought me joy or excitement will fly kites. I have traveled all across the US have been to all coastline in America and kites at everyone of those locations. One of the prison kites has always followed me around and when I was showing off a little bit, I let go of the kite, the wins and the up drafts to get out the sea. So I bought this kite and considering the price of this kite is half the price of the kite I was flying Flew better and tricks easy to get on its back easy for side to side tricks. This kite is just fun to fly. It’s like Therapy for The kite people. It could be soft and slow winds that are steady and can also perform tricks in the medium wins that a lot of kites can’t. 20 mph 25 mph winds this kite is a monster it precisely maneuvers with the lightest touch on the handles. The can also be gentle for those point of point landings and soft reelable landings. I have water this four times and been very successful. Don’t worry by the time I hit the ground. It was dry so if you’re looking for a kite that you can learn on this , just barely a good kite for the beginner and if you’re an intermediate flyer can take you to the next level. Great training for experienced. In fact the last competition I went to I saw a lot of these kites being beautifully operated in the competition. I would definitely recommend this kite to others both beginners to experts

This kite is sooo much fun. I've been kicking around the idea of getting a stunt kite fo quite a while. The wind almost never stops blowing where I live so I figured there couldn't be a better reason to buy one. This kite was easy to assemble (using provided instructions). I chose to separate the strings indoors, and wrapped them on supplied string-keeper one at a time. I was glad I did this, as doing so in the wind would've been difficult. After I got It outside I was up and flying in about 5 minutes. The kite is extremely responsive and quite fast. You wouldnt want to give it to someone who weighs less than 100 lbs in max recommended winds. Unless they want to go for a ride. I weigh 190 and this kite pulled me around enough that I couldn't keep my feet in one spot without moving. And I was in less than 15mph gusts. I highly recommend reading the instructions before attempting to fly this kite. There are many valuable tips, pointers and adjustments that will save you the frustration once you get it in the wind. The only small negative to this kite, is flying it alone. It is much easier if you have someone to hold the kite as you try to launch it. Or if you crash, someone to re-launch. While it can be done alone in most cases, if you try and fly in 20+ mph wind, the chances the kite will not get blown away while you try to make it down to the hand straps is small. The only small issue I had with it so far is that one of the strings was about 4 inches longer than the other out of the package. Due to this I initially had problems keeping it in the air because the kite wanted to turn severely to the direction of the shortened string. As I said the kite is very responsive. One short string will cause big issues if you don't catch it. This kite is SO woth the money otherwise. You will not be disappointed!

No real complaints! This kite is well-built, flies like a demon, and can really take a beating. Prism is the leader in stunt kites of this type, but I had to withhold a star because some of the black spar connectors are very loose and fall off when you're packing the kite up or setting it up... you have to really pay attention to avoid losing those precious pieces! Otherwise, this is a fantastic kite and an excellent choice for beginners to experts.
