The top-of-the-line model in Prism's Stylus series, the P4 Stylus Kite, with its 11-foot wingspan and 3.5-square-meter sail area, is, the company warns, "not for the faint of heart." Its speed and maneuverability make it distinctive among large foils. Acceleration is smooth and controllable making its powerful pull easier to manage for power-kiting novices. When a pilot's skill levels have increased, four lines can be hooked to the kite for skidding along on land or snow. The ripstop-polyester kite flies in winds of 5-25 mph. Featuring Prism's "Coral" color pattern, it comes in an identically colored compression pouch for travel and storage. The kite's ready-to-fly package comprises 100-foot low-stretch Spectra lines, winder, and flight straps.
