Three contrasting color combinations can be flown in multiples on a single line for a spectacular show. Convenient, unique travel clasp holds 200 feet of line with winder handle (included). Six intersecting planes, 30" wingspan, 5-25 mph wind range, Colors available Fire (red/yellow orange), Citrus (yellow, light green, green), Sky (light blue, blue,purple).

Amazon.com Product Description
Called EO for "expandable object," this family-friendly single-line box kite with intersecting elliptical planes flies stable like a traditional kite or, with a tug on the string, tumbles and dances like a sport kite. No assembly is required. The kite's expandable structure springs open with built-in elastic as it's released from a clasp that keeps it flat (less than 1/2 inch thick) for travel and storage. Easy instructions are printed on the clasp so they're always handy. The kite has a 30-inch wing span, flies in winds of 5-25 mph, and can be "stacked" with other Prism EO kites on a single line for a colorful display. Featuring Prism's "Fire" color pattern, it's made of ripstop polyester and has a fiberglass frame. The kite's ready-to-fly package comprises a 200-foot Dacron line and winder, both of which go with the kite in the travel clasp so they won't be misplaced. Specifications: - Wing span: 30" cm (76 cm)
- Material: ripstop polyester
- Frame: fiberglass
- Line: 200' Dacron
- Line rating: 20 pounds
- Recommended wind speed: 5-25 mph
About Prism
An avid windsurfer, pilot and competitive sailor, Mark Reed, now president of Prism Designs, discovered two-line sport kiting in the late 1990s, when he was in college and sport kites were, at best, primitive. In 1991, his hobby became a business in a tiny house in Seattle. From that modest beginning, Prism has grown into a worldwide business, introducing and explaining the sport as it grew. Today, Prism manufactures in Seattle and Asia and carries two lines of kites, with models for first-time flyers up to world-ranked competition pilots.

 Very fun kite, unique and easy to fly February 18, 2007

A friend said to me once, this kite is great for a date, and, well, he's right!
It's a single line kite; it's easy to fly. You end up taking turns, being close and sharing the experience of flying and kiting together, while getting to know each other!
A nice grassy field is recommended, or any place during sunset for the date idea. But any open area works really.
It's also great for kids to play with on those afternoons at the park.
The design is very unique, and it's always assembled. It comes in a travel clasp that keeps the kite flat when you travel with it or store it in your car, or house etc... It opens in one flick and out pops the kite, already for flight. Very easy and cool design.
I've had a lot of fun and smiles flying these. I like the Citrus color the best... the ICE colors comes in at a close second.

This kite is easy to fly and the best part is that there is nothing to put together before flying. It's easy for kids to do as well. I recommend this kite.
 Do not like packaging conditions August 30, 2008
Paulange (Newport, RI, USA)
I got this kite as a gift for my dad. When it arrived, the kite had no bags or anything "protective" of the fabric, and it came with what seem to be grease stains in one side. I called customer service and asked to exchange it for another one of the same model and color, but the one they sent was in worst condition than the first one.
We have not tried it yet; I am sure it is a great kite but I am very disappointed with the state in which it arrived.
