Con Engels is proud to announce that Windstar Kites is the sole United States importer of this truly fabulous kite, "The Skydancer".Windstar Kites introduced this very unique kite in 1997. The Skydancer, by InterActive Kites. Imported from Great Britain, the Skydancer is a variable geometry quad-line kite. The aero-elastic tailoring engineered into the Skydancer allows the kite to adopt the optimum aerodynamic form for the combination of both wind and kite speed. At speed , the kite's wings sweep back, resulting in a deep stable form, lightning acceleration and dead-straight tracking. At low relative air speeds, the wings sweep forward and the kite adopts a less stable, shallow or flat form. This gives the pilot maximum precision of control in all directions and allows breath taking propeller spins. EACH SKYDANCER IMPORTED IS HAND MADE BY David Davies of Inter Active Kites. |
