New Pansh Race Kite
Friday, 01 August 2008 | Written by Joel Theodore
panshkite-com.gif Pansh have been working on a new race kite recently, however it has not gone without question and speculation.  The new race kite is rumored to have had multiple prototypes and changes along the way, which is not unusual.  Unusual however is to have an early prototype of a kite which is extremely similar to an existing kite of another brand.  Accusations have flown back and fourth with each of Pansh's new kites, at some point claims of them being a "copy" have been made.  Up until this point however there has been no evidence that Pansh use other kites as the basis for their prototypes.


During the early stages of Pansh's development of the new prototype race kites they were spotted on a beach with very similar characteristics of the PKD Combat kite.  So much so that it required a direct involvement from PKD to contact Pansh regarding the development of their prototype kites.  Requests were made and new changed versions of the Pansh prototype race kite started to appear.  The new kite comes with an increased cell count, different aspect ratio and a modified bridle.
