Prism Bora Single-line Parafoil Kite

Beautiful, simple kite. No assembly required. It comes folded in a small, convenient stuff sack with a carabiner clip for securing the kite attachment point during storage. Watching this kite and the attached tail fly was awesome. The frameless, air foil design made it safer for crowded areas. This kite flew well in stronger wind conditions. Leave the red loop around the kite attachment point to keep them organized. Before flight make sure the 4 lines that split into 6 attachment points aren't tangled. This kite has a moderate pull in strong winds and will lift several streamers.

A fun and relatively easy to fly kite. That is, it requires less wind than most traditional diamond or delta kites. And being a parafoil design, it packs down into a compact package/bag. So it's easier to have with you.

This is a Big kite. A Big Fun kite!The first time I flew a Bora was at the beach. I was meeting a friend and she told me to look for the kite with the long green tail. I found her easy enough and we kept the kite up in the air all afternoon. When it was time to go, she reeled it in, stuffed it in the bag and clipped it to her backpack. Jut like that! I was sold. Had to get one for myself!I got the Bora 7. It’s bigger than the one I flew with my friend and a total blast. It’s easy to get in the air, and very friendly to fly even when the wind shifts and burbles.I do a lot of hiking and backpacking so the quality of my gear matters to me. This kite is well made and it looks like they really thought through the details. It packs up small so it’s easy take it out on adventures. It comes with a reel of good quality string that attaches to the bag so it won’t get lost. (Very thoughtful!). Set-up is easy: pull the kite from the bag, clip the string to the kite and you’re good to go. Launch with a good bit of wind and a fair amount of space (you don’t want to tangle the long tail in a tree on take-off) and off you go. The kite inflates itself in the wind and quickly becomes very stable in the air.This kite is fun to fly by hand and equally fun tied off to a beach chair. I took it with me recently to North Carolina and though I didn’t get to fly it (the rain there was worse than Seattle!) I was happy to have it along just in case. This kite is my new favorite thing and is going to make gift-giving very easy this year.

I literally have $8 kites from a big box store which fly better than this overpriced garbage. This one should never have left the factory. It's inherently unbalanced due to inaccurate attachment points of the strings, and probably unbalanced fabric. It wants to spin constantly, unless you have a sustained high wind that will lift it instantly. I've folded this up after it failed to fly, and immediately flown my discount house $8 kites with no problem in the same conditions.

The media could not be loaded. The great thing about this kite is how portable it is. It’s easy to unpack and get going for a kid or adult. The thin strings anchoring different points on the kite can get a bit tangled on setup, but if you pack it up carefully you won’t have an issue the next time you take it out.

Very nicely made and packaged. It flew for the first time in a very light fluky wind that was only about 6 mph. I launched it out of my hand and it climbed as high as I gave it line. Really attractive in the sky in the lime green color. A bargain at the price. I can put the kite and my kite reel in my knapsack and fly just about anywhere. I had no problems with tangling at at all, the bridles and the color coded red attachment loop came out of the package very neatly. I have owned and flown prism stunt kites and they have a very good reputation but this is my first single line kite from them, thanks for the great product and to Amazon for the crazy fast free shipping! I think more adults should try kite flying whether single line or stunt kite. It's cheap and fun, it gets you out in the fresh air and it's very relaxing and gives you a chance to think. I'm kind of old, fat and prone to depression, a kite brings a great deal of joy and relief and a break from worry. Give it a try! It's cheaper than therapy!

Great kit I went with the bora 7 because I intend to use this to lift my ham radio antennas into the sky at the beach. I received it today and took it to the beach for a test flight and I was able to get it into the air pretty easily for not having flown a kite since I was a child. Wind was between 5 and 10mph and I had it up in the air for about 45 min. Very stable once it gets above 20ft in the air. Highly recommend for someone looking for a nice kite that doesn't break the bank.

These kites are amazing! They are so incredibly easy to fly. I have all kinds of kites—diamond style, delta kites, weird animal shapes, and other parafoil style. This one out flies them all! It will literally be up in seconds and will stay up for hours. Even if it does lose altitude because it gets twisted up a bit, a little bit of reeling it in will usually cause it to right itself. Everyone around you will struggle with their fancy and cute kites, but this one will fly like a dream, even in iffy weather.I have 2 Bora 5’s and convinced a friend to get a Bora 7. We’ve flown every Friday since the lockdown and these have passed the test. I don't know what all the people who gave a bad review are talking about. This is absolutely the easiest kite to fly. I do recommend that you get a reel instead of using the included handle. A reel will make the process much easier. Also, it is very durable. Other kites I purchased at the same time are already fraying.
