ABSTRACT:
A delta type kite that comprises a sail (T) mounted on a chord constituted by a central longitudinal rod (C), two lateral rods (L) and two tension rods (1). Each of the tension rods has an end coupled to a nose (N) of the kite and in contact with the sail (T). The kite also includes a rear transverse rod (5) and a front transverse rod (9) in a plane which is lower than a plane containing the sail (T). There are also rear stiffeners connecting the tension rods (1) to the transverse rods (5,9). The kite has two front stiffeners (11) individually coupled to the two transverse rods to give the sail (T) an airplane wing shape.
