Description
Tensor 5.0 Power Kite by Prism
The Details
The Tensor 5.0 is the big daddy of our three Tensor power kites. This kite has the stump-pulling power to get you up and going on snow or in lighter winds. Where a smaller kite just won’t get it done, this one will! The Tensor 5.0 will fly easily in 2 mph, start to drag you in 8 mph, and really pull hard in 12+. This power kite is great for larger pilots, light wind areas, and kiting on soft snow where extra power is required! Be careful if you’re just getting started as the 5.0 can develop dangerous pull if the wind picks up suddenly. Engineered to be more than just a trainer, the Tensor package makes it simple and safe to get into power kiting. Dual-line control bar, safety leash and quick release, all set up and ready to fly.
Control
Once you’ve learned basic control, our innovative convertible bar system transforms into rugged quad-line handles. Get the extra control and maneuverability you need for traction sports like buggying and snow kiting. Simply separate the bar at the machined aluminum center joiner and insert the two end fittings to make quad handles. Kite Killers for quad line mode are pre-installed. Just reattach the brake lines and you’re ready to ride. Handles allow sensitive control to generate maximum power from the wind. Use with a line between the top ends for use with a harness! In either mode, the Tensor’s medium aspect wing is powerful but forgiving. Smooth acceleration that doesn’t bite and confident edge performance without collapsing like high-aspect race kites!
