Peter Lynn Venom IIs and Caution Answers are here!
The new ‘06 Caution Answer is here and it has far more of a C-shape LEI feel that will be an easy transition for standard C-shape kite users. Typical great build quality, great turning, and good grunt through turns.
Since our last shipment Venom 2s came and went faster than we could blink, we are currently taking pre-orders for our next shipment. Order yours now!

Peter Lynn Venom II Update
We are anxiously waiting for our shipment of the Peter Lynn Venom IIs to arrive, and are currently taking pre-orders!

The Venom II has been pushed to meet the demands of freestyle kiteboarding riders, but has not lost the advantages of special Peter Lynn Twinskin stability and comfortable feel.
Order now to get yours before anyone else!

Product Review: GK Sonic - 11 meter
The Globerider Sonic had received so much prototype response from friends and production kite glorious write ups from all over the globe that I had to get one of the first production ones to test and see if it would be the wave machine to sell to my lei customers.

It is an exciting time in kitesurfing. Lots of new designs out there, and we are testing as many as we can. The new PL vortex looks nice in its role as a Bomba replacement and quick turning kite. They are now in stock. We are continuing to test the new Globerider Sonic supported leading edge kite and are impressed with its range, turning, and simplicity for this type of lei kite. The kiteforum and other groups are saying great things on their tests of this particular kite. The new ‘06 Cautions are here with improvements in every area. This says a lot as we really liked last years’ versions. Underground has a full line of directional wave boards with stainless inserts and great construction. Stay tuned for the latest reviews and updates on new kite gear to come very soon!
