PL Hornet II vs Prism Tensor

Maurizio - 6-9-2012 at 03:00 PM

I can't make up my mind between a Peter Lynn Hornet II 4 and a Prism Tensor 4.2. I weight around 235 pounds and will use it for ground boarding. Winds are not that strong here in Sweden. Which one would you suggest?

Cant go wrong with either one. Build quality on both is excellent. Flying characteristics are similar, but I would say the hornet will provide a bit better upwind performance on a board. The tensor has the bar/handle combo so that is cool. Both will be on the slower side turning with a bar.

I would lean towards the hornet just for the little extra upwind performance on the board .. other than that they are going to be very similar.

I fully agree with Dino. The Hornet has a bit of an edge on performance. The Tensor is a beautiful package with both handles and control bar.

What about compared to a Flexifoil Blurr 4 or Ozone Octane 4?
