The
PKD Buster is a new kite from the minds of those
designers at Paracontrol Kite Division, who have a
background of designing and building paragliding
sails.
The Buster has
everything you need in a kite, especialliy if you are
wanting to get yourself into power kiting, without doing
your bank balance some damage.
Busters are powerkites
for serious begenners, for activities like buggying,
mountainboard or just kiting. It is a 4 lined kite easely
convertible to dual lines. The price is very attractive
when you consider what you get for your money;
Buster Kite
Set of Dyneema lines ready to fly
Quad handles (nice
quality) with a system of adjustment allowing to avoid
the problems due to the strech of the lines
System of variation of speed (to increase or decrease
speed and power)
Storage Bag
Coming from a
paraglider background, PKD is perhaps better known for
their world-beating Century buggy race kite. The heritage
of the Buster is immediately apparent - made made to the
usual high standards of PKD. The performance is high and
the handling sweet; value is amazing even before taking
into account that lines and handles are included in the
price!
A novel feature is the
Adjustable Bridle. The Buster will obviously fly straight
from the bag - in fact the lines are already attached -
but tweaking the bridle allows tuning of the
angle-of-attack of the kite, choose between a faster kite
or more stable performance!
