New Year Greetings

This past few weeks, I have learned a few things. The best thing I learned was that the Mayans were DUMB.   There isn't much on the web about where the Mayans are now.   Perhaps the smarter ones knew that they were dumb and decided to branch off. The world is still here and that is a good thing for those of us who want to fly kites.
Also, with the nice weather (until Christmas day) that we were having, Several of the DAKO members have had some time to get out and fly some kites.   I brought in at Thanksgiving a Peter Lynn Phantom 15m in red that we've been flying regularly. Derick recently started flying a Phantom 12m in Blue as well.
We've also had a chance to review the New Peter Lynn Lynx. This is an exceptional kite that i look forward to being more familiar with.
Lastly, I have a few really good deals on some popular kites until 12/30. I need to clear some stuff out for end of the year tax season, so here is a good opportunity. More Below.

We've had a good bit of experience with the Peter Lynn Phantom recently.   This is a closed cell DePower Arc kite. This kite turns quickly and has a nice amount of pull. Being closed cell and so big, it needs about 10 mph wind to come into its own. Above that and it is truly an amazing kite.

Take your hands off the bar and this kite will Auto-Zenith which means it will just go straight above you and sit with no controls from you.

This kite was designed primarily for landboarding and buggying. Being a closed cell arc like the Peter Lynn Charger, it is water capable; however, Peter Lynn pushes the Charger as the water kite and not this one.

I've done a few videos on this kite already. I'm doing a written review soon.

Above: Several of us have also had a chance to try out the new Peter Lynn Lynx. The kite above was a 7m version. This kite too is a DePower kite. DePower kites are a bit more up front, but aren't as scary as some of the Fixed bridle kites. They are primarily used for 'motion' kiting. Landboards, Buggies, Kiteboarding, Snowboarding. They require a harness to fly. first one to buy a LYNX gets 10% off.
LEFT: High flying Derick gets some air with his Phantom 12m. This is a good view of his harness and the attachments a DePower has.

	NEW Peter Lynn Cores available. These kites are being discontinued. I have no reason why other than they will probably bring a new version out in a few years as that seems to be the trend. This is my favorite fixed bridle kite period. Derick uses them to jump with. I like to buggy with them. They are beginner friendly and intermediate favorites. 25% off right now through the 12/30. I have (2) 4m Cores and (1) 6.7m Core left I also have One 6.8m Viper left at the same rate.
2013	End of the year Sale: I have an Off season sale going on which has alot of single line stuff in it which the single line stuff will continue until February. Some of it is Only One available...so act fast. These are items I sell at Festivals mostly and they are just sitting here until Festival season starts back up in March. A few other kites have sales as well. Tensors, Hornets, and Twisters are all on sale. If you have a kite you are wanting, I'll figure out how to get you a sale price even if it isn't on sale until the end of the year. In stock items have some motivation. Multiple items even more.
NEW Peter Lynn Voltage Release Date: Unknown. Anywhere from now until June I am preordering by taking a deposit for each kite now. You will get a 15% discount up until it is announced they are coming. Once announced..(Usually a month out), this will drop to 10% for PreOrders. Once they are available, regular pricing applies.

If you want multiple sizes: email me for an additional discount on the voltage (only good for my newsletter readers who can read itty bitty print)

I also have some great deals on some new and demo kites

I currently have a 'OFF SEASON' Sale going on. Mostly single line kites, but there are some overstocked 2 line and 4 line kites on the page as well. These kites are already steeply discounted and discount codes do not apply.
