The VSonic is designed with performance in mind – specifically
1 water relaunch,
2 stability,
3 turn speed and
4 bottom end power for extra wind range.
The unique canopy shape delivers definite performance benefits without compromising in other areas.

Mat Pendle, GK designer, say “the extra stability comes from the low aspect central thrust region, but normal limitations of low aspect kites are avoided by keeping the wing tips high aspect for speed, and to assist rotational twist during turns.”

The new GK VSonics of all sizes are proving very popular with over 600 kites heading to the US for the anticipated early season demand. Dave Turner, GK distributor for the US and other areas, says “we were really happy last year with our sales going ballistic throughout the season. GK was definitely in the top 5 brands for sales and it looks like this year we will keep that going forward. The quality is incredible this year, absolutely first rate construction, and as always the performance is market leading also. Yeah, we are really looking forward to a big year for GK in the States in 2008.”
