Peter Lynn Vortex

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.

StabilityThe 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.

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.
