Overview
Prism Kite Technology builds the Synapse as a frameless fabric parafoil that inflates with wind and steers on two lines. It packs into a small bag with its lines, winder and instructions, ready for a beach or park.
No spars means nothing to snap in a crash, which suits beginners learning to steer. The packed size fits a glove compartment. In stronger wind it pulls harder, which is fun for teens and adults but tiring for small kids.
Who it's for
Kids and adults ready to try stunt-style steering will learn spins and dives quickly. Very young children who want an easy, single-string kite should start simpler.
Pros and cons
- No frame to break
- Packs very small
- Lines and winder included
- Teaches two-line basics
- Wind range not listed
- Pulls hard in strong wind
- Lines can tangle for beginners
Performance notes
Wind fills the cells of the parafoil to give it shape, so it needs a steady breeze to launch. Pulling one line or the other steers the kite. After flying, wind the lines evenly and dry the fabric before packing to prevent mildew.
