Prism Kite Technology Zenith 7 Aurora Single Line Kite, Ready to Fly with line

I can't say enough good stuff about this kite. Here's my highlight reel. It is pretty easy to set up but needs a little attention to detail. Each leading edge has a bungee core mid-point break down, as does the center spar. This allows a large kite to fold down to a small size. You can leave those connections in place if you can live with a longer fold kite - the storage bag has an extension built in to allow the longer lengths of the leading edges assembled.The spreader bar is bungee cored too with a center breakdown. The only difficult part of the kite is inserting the knots at the ends of the bungees in the spreader into the rubber mounts on the leading edges. The knot is kind of difficult push into the mount but a little patience and wiggling gets it in.As for flying, this thing is a rocket. I flew first in a punchy 15 mph wind that was shifting direction. It was very exciting. I've never seen a kite fly directly overhead, but this one did. At one point it passed zenith and went upwind of me! That was interesting. I let out line and it drifted on the slack back to downwind.I would advise close supervision and assistance with children. The kite can pull very hard and if a hand gets on the line it can get cut or burned. I bought a winder and am glad I did. Very helpful for retrieving.

Extremely disappointed. We vacation at Virginia Beach- Atlantic Ocean and lots of steady wind.It went up without issue at about 150 feet I took a head down dive bomb dive into the sand and broke a fiberglass spline. Great $80 bucks flushed in less then five minutes. Insult to injury - I’ve been an avid kite flyer for 30 years (I’m 58). I have hundreds of dollars worth of kites and professional winders, tales and lots of laundry.So I didn’t give-up, I went to the local V.B. KITE store, bought the official Prism repair kit and an exact size in length and diameter new fiberglass spline. The next day, three attempts got 100’ up and a nose dive bomb down. I’m lucky I didn’t hurt anyone.SHAME ON YOU PRISM! Very Disappointed - your lack of quality control cost me another $28.00 on top of money wasted buying the kiteand caused me and my family hardship for a good part of my vacation.I do not recommend - some are happy, I get it, but quality control proves to be absent so it’s a roll of the dice to buy this kite. Good luck if you decide to spend your hard earned dollars on a “oh, I hope mine works” kite.

My son received a Zenith 5 as a gift and the kite line that came with it all white (clean) and had a metal clip on the end. That clip is both visible in the photos on Amazon and referenced on the bag that the kite comes in. It seems minor but this is one of my favorite things about it - no need to worry about knots.I was impressed with how easy it was to assemble and fly, and ordered the Zenith 7. There is no clip on the line that I received, instead there is a single loop. The kite bag still has instructions that reference the clip.UPDATE: I contacted the seller and they were quick to respond and helpful. They immediately sent some line clips to me. In the meantime I had no problem flying the kite with the knots found in the instructions. The kite is very eye catching and super fun to fly. I couldn't be happier and already ordered a couple more Prism kites!

This is a great high quality kite meant for adults. Not really for kids only because this thing can pull pretty hard even in medium wind. It can be tough to bring it back in once the line is all the way out. Don’t get me wrong, this thing is a blast to fly. Almost an arm workout. The sting winder/reel that come with it isn’t great, plan on getting a better winder.

Great kite I recommend for adults not kids , this kite can be hazardous to a child without adult supervision. But if your into awesome kites this kite is for you follow the instructions it comes with and you have a great time.

Have flown this kite multiple times and found it to be very unstable, not what I would have expected for a bigger delta. Anything less than perfect wind and it wants to do a right side noise dive into the ground. Without the tip tails it almost won't even fly. They almost seem like an add on to compensate for a flawed design. No matter what it wants to go to the right. If you're going to go 100% china manufactured need to work on quality control. Might have just bought my last prism kite.

This is the best kite I have ever had. It flys easily without having a lot of wind. A breeze to assemble. Its big and sturdy and i swear in a strong wind i felt my feet starting to lift off of the ground.

Flew so easily, the only issue was the hoop winder. It’s pain to retrieve the kite, your hands get tired. Watch when you first launch the kite, your hands will heat up spinning the winder!!

This morning was the first chance I've had to test this kite. Wind conditions were perfect and the solo launch went very smoothly!Assembly is very easy, just a case of joining the pre shock corded poles and attaching the line.This kite takes off pretty fast and it has a very strong pull so wear gloves.I used the provided line for the first flight, and used up almost the whole 300 feet, but it took a while to reel back in, so i then swapped for my large winder reel and got it to about 600 feet and it flew almost vertical at that height. I can go to 1300 feet, but thats for another day.Nothing to dislike, except the provided reel is a bit small, so i recommend walking the kite down instead of reeling it in.Not much more to say except this kite is of high quality, and simple to fly. Worth every penny as it will last for years.Get a good winding reel, like the one i have pictured for a bit more control though.

This is an excellent kite worth the money

Kite was poorly manufactured with shredded kite line, which seems to a common problem with Prism kites. If buying check the line fully.

One of the best flying single line kites I’ve owned. Genuinely attractive design and was even better looking in person. It offers a really nice pull. In fact surprising pull for a single line. A line winder is recommended IMHO because it will make life easier after letting out a lot of line. Love the design and the transparent panels, the colours really pop.

Debo decir que es un excelente Kite/papalote, tiene tiempo que conozco la marca y recientemente vi este kite publicado y no dude en comprarlo más que nada por ser más grande que otros, aproximadamente 2m, en viento moderado a fuerte si se siente mucho el jalón, por lo que no es recomendable para niños muy pequeños. Desgraciadamente el artículo me llegó usado ya que no venía la etiqueta característica del producto ( donde viene la foto y especificaciones ), tampoco venía un strap con velcro que se ve en las fotos para amarrarlo y que viene en todos los kites tipo framed , otra cosa que note es que las terminales plásticas del kite venían un poco raspadas y sucias por lo que es evidente que es un artículo usado. Le pongo 2 estrellas porque aunque es un buen kite no es completamente nuevo como dice la publicación, y en realidad no viene rotos los materiales, No quise regresarlo porque es difícil conseguirlos a través de Amazon.
