Peter Lynn Bomba Kite Summary: The Bomba's increased profile thickness and other
new design features combine to maximize water relaunchability and make
the kite exceptionally stable and forgiving, ideal for beginners. The large amount of depower enables riders to cope
with gustier conditions and
use the same kite in a bigger wind range, thereby substantially
increasing kiting time. It maintains smooth power and can
quickly pivot on its tip for fast turns.
This makes it a superb kite for wave riding and wakestyle
riders. Its new design also gives it amazing pop from simply
loading the rail, making for easier jumping
which facilitates learning as well as technical maneuvers. Bomba
Features: For beginners (and many others) stability
is the single most important quality of a kite because of its
major impact on safety and ease of use. Stability generally refers to the amount of effort a kiter must exert by bar
movement to keep a kite safely parked at some point (often
zenith) along the edge of the wind window.
Stable kites require less effort than unstable kites. Peter Lynn Twinskin kites are UNSURPASSED
regarding stability and require the least effort and attention of any
kite. Bombas in
particular are super stable and in average conditions will stay safely
parked WITHOUT the kiter using the bar AT ALL to keep it there. This is incredibly handy for beginners and anyone
else who finds themselves wanting to use 2 hands for some pressing chore
such as putting on the board, getting untangled from a leash or kelp,
realigning a harness or walking/crawling over unsafe surfaces (jagged or
slippery rocks, driftwood, mud, steep berms etc.). Because there is no uneven
weight distribution caused by a large leading edge bladder, Bombas
are also almost impossible to luff and won't suddenly drop if there is a
momentary loss of tension on the lines.
As you can see, this superior stability substantially increases the kiter's safety margin in addition to providing unequalled ease of use. Fast water
relaunchability: The lower aspect ratio and deeper profile combined
with the new improved tip design have maximized water relaunchability! Quick turning speed: The extra rear line webbing causes a faster turning
kite. This better
maneuverability is especially good for wave riding, jumping and
avoiding obstacles such as other kiters and
unfriendly waves. Easy to setup: No need to pump, the kite inflates itself! After
kiteboarding the deflating zipper lets you pack up fast and easy. Sizes: Bomba available sizes: 8.5, 10.5, 13, 15, 17, 20M For more information, please call 310-430-KITE(5483). |
