Description:    The VSonic is a 4 line kite with 100 % depower capabilities bysimply pushing the bar out. The patented bridle system (A-KPO)maintains excellent steering ability even when fully depowered (seeA-KPO). The VSonic strut profile is flat and fast, giving the kite hugeboost and upwind performance. The arc of the Vsonic is very flat givingit a huge power for size ratio and creating a smaller, faster, morepowerful kite. The unique outline shape of the Vsonic shows a kite witha low aspect, (stable, slow, and grunty) central region, and fast highaspect wing tips where the turning and control takes place. The resultis an overall increase in stability, turn speed and wind range andwater relaunch. (learn more - see innovation). The total wind range isexceptional, but the what sets the GKVSonic aside from other highperformance kites is the usable wind range. With tight back lines evenwhen depowered, the kite is still responsive in very high winds. I\'veused GK Sonics for years and the new V-Sonics are just awesome. Theyrelaunch super easy, fly incredibly stable, and generate tons of powerwhen you want it, but also depower completely when you don\'t. TheV-Sonics are a very well built, fun and responsive kite. We\'ve taughtmany beginners on GK\'s due to their depower capability and safetyfeatures. They are about as fun of a kite as their is out there for theexperienced kiter as well. Waves, freestyle, freeride, big air......youwill NOT be disappointed! **These are also very nice snow kites in thewinter! This is a VERY good condition white/black \'08 GK V-Sonic11meter kite complete with bag, pump, leash, bar & lines. I gotthis kite late in July and have used it maybe 10 times. I sell my gearevery fall after my Hatteras trip and buy new kites in the spring. Idon\'t really do this out of necessity, I\'m just a gear guy and I liketo buy new every year. The GK V-Sonics go UNCHANGED for \'09, just agraphic change.
