Guerilla
The Peter Lynn Guerilla is a high performance kite especially for the kiteboarder who wants to ride overpowered. The Guerilla consists of two layers of fabric with a set of profiles stitched in between. There are no bridle lines which cause drag - so on this kite the flying lines are attached directly to the tips. The two upright spars in the tips keep the kite in shape and produce responsive and accuarate steering.

The Twin Skin technology creates a cleaner aerodynamic shape. The Airflow around the wing is cleaner which allows the kite to generate more power, lift and float. The large number of cells in the wing allow the designers to give individual parts of the kite particular flying characteristics; e.g having the centre of the kite producing more lift, while having the wing tips improving stability.

C-Quad
C-Quad, design, shape & history

The search was for a kite that would fly like a traditional foil, but without the air-filled double skin. C-Quads have the inflatable ‘cells’ replaced by thin fibreglass rods. One long rod in the front and several spines to have rigid bridle attachment points. The largest surprise was that it actually worked!! This first prototype took to the air in the spring of 1998 and now C-Quads are flown all over the world. Never before in the history of kite-flying has a single breakthrough revolutionised the way we fly kites in such a rapid and dramatic way. C-Quads are winning buggy and kite-surfing races by many different flyers from Australia to Scandinavia. Recently the 50 mile race on dry lake Ivanpha was won with a C-Quad 4.2 piloted by Johan Versluis.

Peel 2 line
Its radical profile shape with the conspicuous 'bump' at the traiing edge prevents collapsing of the foil under difficult flying conditions. The cross-bridle provides maximum power distribution to the whole wing and also helps to recover (very quickly) if wing collapse does occur. All the standard PEELS are produced with light weight hi-tenacity nylon fabric with the best wear and tear resistance to be found. These PEELS can be flown in just about any wind speed, the kites can handle the power of gale-force winds. It is the Pilot that will need to be concerned for his own safety.

Maximum power, speed, and incredible flight stability is what makes the PEEL the best allround 2-line foil. Its qualitities are most obvious when used as a 'buggy-engine' for which it was originally designed. But it simply is a joy to fly as a pure fun kite; let the PEEL drag your body along the beach or even better through the water. You really don't want to stop until every muscle of your body has been exhausted.

Peel 4 line
The latest addition to the Peter Lynn kite family are the 4-line PEELs. These 4-liners have gone through a dramatic evolution and are not at all like the standard 2-line PEELs. The following goals were set during the 3 years of intensive developement:

-The quality of the classic PEELs should not be diminished.
-The pilot should be able to contol the pull of the kite by at least 40%.
-One size should cover a large wind range.
-Reliable inflation in all conditions; launching, edge of the wind window, reversed flying and during fast spins.
-Simple and robust construction to minimze risk of damage.
-Simplified bridle system to reduce aerodynamic drag and minimize tangles.

The result is a unique crossbridled 4-line foil with eyecatching shell grapics. The kite's 17 completly redesigned profiles are 100% crossvented and "super-rip-stop" reinforced. The P-5 is 20% lighter in weight then the traditional PEEL and can be used as a buggy-engine in an amazing range of wind conditions.
