Peter Lynn Reactor Four Line Kite

The Peter Lynn Reactor is a new land based, open cell, foil kite that’s designed for speed. It really is an incredible feeling, riding at high speeds in a buggy. You are so close to the ground and with such a maneuverable buggy your are really pushing your limits. You only want to go faster and faster! However, many kites do no have such a high flying speed. High performance race kites do, but are not as stable and easy to fly. This is where the Peter Lynn Reactor comes in!

With the Reactor, Peter Lynn introduces a stable medium/high aspect ratio kite aimed at intermediate and advanced flyers. Excellent for buggying as well as speed sessions on a land board or on snow, yet its stable and predictable flying behavior make it accessible for a much wider group of flyers. As far as both look and feel of the Reactor are concerned, this kite seems to belong to the category of high performance kites.

Flying characteristics:

Speed
The Reactor has an amazing flying speed, especially when comparing it to other kites with a similar aspect ratio. You can ride competitively with other buggy riders, the Reactor will not be the one stopping you from riding at high speeds.

Quick steering behaviour
The Reactor responds direct/fast to you input. With very minor movement with your handles, the Reactor moves quick and easy. Great for fast gibes and quick kite loops.

Stability
The Reactor not prone to luffing so it will not surprise you in a nasty way. Its upwind and downwind performance are amazing without giving you that feel that you are on the edge and may lose it any second. The Reactor is one of a few kites out there that combine performance and stability in an unbelievable way.

Power buildup
The way it builds its power is very comfortable. The Reactor needs speed to perform but still has got enough grunt to keep you moving when you hit soft sand. Once the kite is stopped above your head you will notice the low lift this kite produces.

Windrange
Due to a broad range of sizes and its large wind range per size you can easily ride in any wind speed with these six sizes. You will notice that there is a comfortable overlap of any Reactor with its next size in terms of wind range. The larger sized kites have a slightly higher aspect ratio than the smaller kites giving them a similar feel across the range.
