About this kite

The Swell is Peter Lynn's wave kite: light steering, willing drift and stable depower for down-the-line riding without drama. It brought the veteran brand's durability standards to the surf zone, where equipment abuse is the daily norm. Five generations ran from 2014; PLKB's current tube range is the Gambit and the Hook.
