Synapse 140

I always wanted a dual line kite as a kid seeing them on the beaches of Lake Michigan and decades later, I bought one of these a few years ago. Was surprised to find it was far easier to launch and keep up than single string kites I have tried. There was a stiff wind at the beach the other day, so I took it out for the first time this year and my 8 year old son wanted to try it. He got the hang of it quickly, and this is small enough to not carry him away, but definitely gave him a thrill with the pull. He was jumping up and down squealing with joy as he flew it on the beach. I taught him some moves and he gets it. I think I need to give it to him and I need to upgrade to the big Tantrum!

I fly at the beach and crash it hard into the sand quite often as I try to do tricks and being a soft kite with no hard parts, it seems no worse for the wear. I would have completely destroyed anything with bars by now. It will get sand inside, but if you grab it by the bottom and shake it up and down, the sand will easily exit the openings at the front of the foil.

This is a great kite, simply remove from bag and fly. No breakable parts, attach 75’ tube tail for a great visual effect. Even my 5 yr old grandson flies my Snapse 140, with my help, my mum has also flown it, suitable for ages 5 to 85…love my prism kites, E3, 4D, Neutrino, Snapse 140, 75’ & 90’tube tails.

I Love this awesome kite! So easy to launch without any help. Delightful!

Great starter kite to learn with and is easy to travel with.

Bought this for a trip to the beach! I have a Nexus and the old Snapshot in a few sizes but I really wanted this green colorway! Looks dope with the 75ft rainbow tube tail, and my kids were able to fly it too with no worries about breaking parts. Really relaxing to fly it in figure 8’s and ground passes. We did crash it into the surf at one point and a bunch of sand got into the baffles, oops! Took a bit of work to shake it all out once it was dry!
