- Compact delta shapes float with an agile style.
- All kites come in the shock-proof and weather-sealed tube, personalized by request, if it's meant to be a gift.

Characteristics
de tomaso series
"de tomaso superleggera" is the perfect start into floating without wind. The minimalist kites of this series are easy to fly and the handling is straightforward. Each one guarantees a lot of joy and success at your zero wind flights.
The usable wind spectrum is from zero and calm conditions to moderate winds. These are the default windless kites.
i'll be back, darling
The small agile kites in Dyneema Composite float like butterflies: during the breaks in the office, on the roof terrace or in the backyard. The tubes are short and handy.
The "ibb urban rhythm edition" is made of sturdy white, blue, silver or green Dyneema Composite Fabric, and performs a tad more reactive flights than the urban flow edition.
the urban ninja
This zero to light wind kite made floating in the city popular around the world and founded a new genre. With its radical agility, it feels comfortable in confined urban spaces: parking lots, backyards, parks.
The compact, even livelier version in a short Tube: "the numbers" with an individual number or generic without a number.
like a rolling stone
Versatile glider kites flying in a wide wind range. These medium sized kites give a noticeable feedback through the line into the hand, so your impulses arrive accurately. The "like a rolling stone" kites are probably the most controllable wing shaped designs.
"like a rolling stone ul", light and minimal, is also available in the hyperlight version taken to the extreme.
leaving rome
Leaving rome was developed for the experience of "light, slack and slow", 64 grams at 3.12 meters wingspan. Modern, generous geometry, slow and precise.
Beautiful with no wind at all or in a very gentle breeze.
the long way home
The unique zero-wind floating experience with the large responsive wings. You can fly very high with this kite, hundreds of meters. Or closer to you, in no wind.
The smaller, highly performant "the long way home hcs" is happy with much less time and space for slowest floating. We manufacture both versions also as hyperlight editions.
