Two sides of the same coin, Frank and Tank were born from the same shape with two extremely different goals.
FRANK, a kite shop exclusive, is geared towards helping fliers use a full sail to explore an efficient, slower trick pace, and precise flight. Its semi-flexible but durable leading edge of Sky Shark P2X Camo enables him to absorb excess impact and aid in recoil-based rotation. Frank's goal lies in providing shops with a high end kite, with goal oriented objectives. He is extremely precise with only moderate pull, and equally loves stalling and sliding as much as tricks such as Taz Machines, Fade combinations, and Lazy Susans.
FRANK's UL counterpart extends these objections into a lower wind range. The same recoil based process is built into the kite, while the Nitro Lite spreaders provide the rigidity and security a flier might need to raise confidence exploring new manuvers.
We extend our deepest gratitude to Jon and Marieanne Trennepohl at Kites and Fun Things for taking over framing the Frank line.
