While its high-quality materials and exquisite build quality will leave you a lasting impression well beyond the ride.
PETER LYNN ESCAPE V6 CHARACTERISTICS
Intuitive handling and kite feedback
Feel where your kite is at all times - The Escape’s smooth power and predictable handling gives the rider a feeling of trust and control that inspires confidence from the first launch. The 4-strut design offers abalanced distribution of power. The big strut-less centre piece gives the kite loads ofgrunt while the squared wingtips offer direct and powerful steering. The excellent barfeedback lets riders feel in control and allows more experienced riders to place the kite exactly where they need it to utilize its power to the fullest.
Direct and responsive steering
Precise and direct turning - The Escape’s minimal, pulley-less bridle makes the kite responsive and direct. This allows you to place the kite exactly where you need it. The short bridle makes it turn fast and as tight as you want, a great feature to bust out kite loops. The quick steering also makes it easy to work the kite in lower winds, helping you to stay out on the water longer.
Large usable wind range
The Escape performs throughout a large wind range - Due to its light weight construction, stability and predictability the Escape V6 has an expanded wind range for this type of design. Get out sooner and hold on longer. The big strut-less centre panel of the canopy gives you the grunt and stability to fly in a wide range of conditions.
Freestyle oriented performance
Explosive pop & extreme vertical boost - The Escape’s open C-shape gives the kite huge amounts of power when you send it for a jump.
