Mini Super Barrage





The Mini super barrage was conceived for the need of more rigidity in a higher aspect ratio wing. This entailed making it with smaller ovals and tighter rigging giving it a taught finish.

In Super barrage form this kite is a very efficient flier achieving stable flight at high angles. From very low winds speeds it works the best taking advantage of its light wing loading, to higher winds where stability is not lost, flexing off gusts.

EO V-plane


The EO V-plane concept was a test to see a series of planes done in the diagonal rigged cells and test limits, the first V-plane I made in the larger ovals and has the lightest wind performance so far. Unfortunately is a little too large to transport easily by plane, and I developed one out of the smaller ovals, which comes in at 1.6m that is.

Shares the same style that has led to some awesome soaring and stable kites that share the EO assembly, and shock-cord clasp convenience.

• Original Kite design by Phil McConnachie

• Fade colour schemes: Fire, Lime, Ice, Cloud and Red

• High performance Icarex polyester sails

• Framed with a Robust 2mm fiberglass

• Self assembly in seconds

• Kite folds flat for storage: 1600mm by 250mm by 16mm

• Assembled: 1400mm by 900mm by 560mm

EO Bi-Plane


A spin-off in the EO development has been the Plane series.
The Bi-plane has the ease of use that the EO System affords with ease of assembly using the unique shock-cord clasp system and an amazing amount of fun flying in even the lightest of winds.
The biplane will do barrel rolls, loops and spins, stalls, fly upside down all with deft line control in a variety of wind conditions.
Once assembled; launch can be achieved by either glide/dart style, or by placing it on the ground upside down, the plane will hover to level, then barrel roll to the correct flying attitude.

Wright EO


The Wright EO concept was is part to draw inspiration from early pioneers, the plane series evolved from my EO10 and a mini Cody sitting together one day sparking a style that has led to some awesome soaring and stable kites that share the EO assembly, and shock-cord clasp convenience.


The Wright EO can also be flown in the EO Super-Barrage style by choice of rigging, giving superior flight performances.
