nasa wing


I was just wondering whats up with nasa wings, just read a few threads about them, first I guess is can you get pulled behind them mabie not as well as a foil or LEI but will it do the job to go out snowkiting? Also can you buy them I see alot of people making them are they hard to tune up? I see on alot of peoples signatures they have quite a few NPW's so they must be alright. Any info?

Single skin traction engine that's easy (!) to make ... they get used on short lines too so they're handy for carparks :thumbup:
The NPW goddess will turn up soon with links, hopefully :D



Yeah... I got a kite. Or two...

I kite buggy with nasa wings. Other people use them to kitecate, pull an atb board or any other activity you can do with a foil. You can snowkite with a nasa wing. Nasa wings are not made commercially any more. I have made between 20 to 30 nasa wings so far and have not had a problem getting them to fly right or tune up. Before I send a kite out to a new owner I always test it out. There are some plans on the net that can help you make them or I do make them for others. I can send more info if you are interested in making your own.

Check out my webshots page in my signature to see some of the nasa wings I have made.
