The Jordan Airform 27 is possibly a one-of-a-kind kite. Dean Jordan made this smaller version of his Airform to test its ability to be used as a lifter comparable to the Flow Form 30. I had the privilege to test this kite for Dean during the summer of 1999. This kite flies in the lowest winds of any kite I've used for KAP, but it has a limited weight lifting ability.

After the initial disappointment I began to rethink ways that this kite could be used in light winds to lift specially designed, light, one shot KAP rigs. This kite can easily lift a half pound (227g) in winds as light as 3mph.
