Prism Kite Tube Tail

I used my (2) 20 ft AND my (2) 75 ft. Tails together on my Prism P3 dual line power kite on a relatively windy day. The 20's went on first and I noticed immediate additional stability when the kite would normally deflate at a loss of wind power or a small opposite direction gust that would normally deflate and, if you are not a very skilled kite flier, crash. There was only minimal additional drag in kite velocity. If you have enough wind, i strongly suggest the 75 ft instead because it Adds a significantly more dramatic effect to your flight, especially in tight pinwheel rotations!These 20 ft. are definitely going on all my kite days from now on. Perfect size stuff sack included, but I suggest you flatten and roll or fold it flat for better flight next time.

Neeeeeeded. Long story short: This makes flying a kite effortless for an amateur like me. Longer story: Was getting really frustrated with the Delta stowaway kite I got. It was catching wind and going up a bit then dive bombing the ground. There are probably adjustments I could make, but I have no idea what I'm doing... I bought the tail on a whim and decided to try it out. It completely stabalized the kite. I pretty much just needed to hold on and the wind did the rest. It look BA too. Yes, that's right, a kite can be BA. Disclaimer: I had a good wind in an open field on the coast. This tail probably doubled the weight of the kite. Results may not be as great in low wind conditions.

The media could not be loaded. 5 Stars BUT...This product is great, awesome quality, does EXACTLY what it says it'll do - BUT - I purchased it as an accessory for my Prism snapshot 2.5 and I got the kite before this arrived. I flew the kite without this accessory and its SOOOO much more fun. This tail slows the kite down. Without it the kits is a lot snappier and much quicker.If you are new to power kites then this is a great attachment or accessories for a bigger kites to help slow things down while you master the basics of maneuvering a bigger kite with some decent winds.The product does what it claims it'll do so while it ended up not serving my purpose it earns 5 stars because it does what it claims and the price and quality are great.

I saw this at a kite fair and they wanted nearly 50$ for it. Found it on amazon for cheaper but it still seemed pricey. Its really nice and I've flown it a couple of times now. Holds up well in good kite flying winds. It feels like it helps the kite stay a little smoother in flight.

The media could not be loaded. Well made and lots of fun! Everyone loves to watch the 75 foot tube tail do figure 8s, loops, zig-zags, corkscrews, and snakes. Check out my video of this tube tail attached to the Prism Synapse 200. The black and white pattern is hypnotizing. The material is silent as it flows through the air. I'd like to see Prism make other color combinations because this really makes an ordinary carve-up-the-sky experience extraordinary.Update 9-29-22: Still love this tube tail. Prism now offers colors! I have the spectrum version (rainbow color scheme). Happy flights!

I thought 75' was too much & that my dual string would drag. However, the 75' still Rips & adds a new layer of fun to a sport I've been interested in for awhile. I had a cheap 15'-20' tail but that just never was as exciting as this tube sock version. The air fills & appears to create a "trace" of where the kite had been - which is much more fun than just a tail that's getting blown around in the wind.I would suggest you GO BIG with the 75' version & that way you won't want to go home. :) Enjoy!

I attached this to a HQ symphony pro 2.2.The tail traces the path of the kite beautifully. If you want attention while flying your kite, this is the ticket.I must warn you though, if your kite doesn't have a solid attachment for the tail, it might come off pretty easily from the drag. The tail attachment loop on my kite broke the first day. The tail itself was still intact.

Well then…. I should have done the math! 20’ does not equal 75 ft tail! Even the picture on the package was a misleader. I don’t know if I thought 20’ was 20 meters, or what!The 20 FOOT tail is cute though. I put it on a power foil and it works well. It looks like a cat tail on the kite, and is rigid during flight. I love kites , but greed be damned, if I would pay $40 bucks for a 75ft tail. You can get ribbon tails and they are just as responsive as this overpriced tube tail.That’s why only 3 stars. I felt mislead, and I should have paid more attention to the misleading ad. Understand though, I’m keeping it because it is going to get used. There’s more to life than stunt kites! there’s also single line kites too!
