Description

Feature

Big Hang time

– Open arc design for boosts and loops with a reliable catch.
Light wind Optimized

Quick responsive steering

– Designed with light bar pressure and steering impulse for a fast response with a tight turning radius.

Confident Relaunch

– Moderate LE Diameter and swept design provides additional buoyancy and helps the kite to release quickly from the water, even in the lightest conditions.

Tactile Handling

– Precisely balanced for wave-riding and foiling.

Upwind Drive – Efficient, draft-forward profile.

Freestyle Progression

– A forgiving kite with power when you need it for freestyle maneuvers.

Power on Demand

– Predictable, consistent power delivery with light-responsive steering.

Kite Technology

LOW DRAG

– Spliced, pre-stretched bridle lines with less parasitic drag for greater aerodynamic performance. Our new manufacturing method to pre-load and measure the bridle lines before cutting improves accuracy and consistency. This combined with quality materials results in reduced shrinkage, reduced elongation, and improved longevity.

HYPERFLOW INFLATION SYSTEM

– High volume single point inflation system with a larger diameter hose for rapid inflation and deflation. Bayonet style main inflation valve compatible with most pumps. No adapter needed

DURA LITE SEAM PROTECTION

– Lightweight reinforcement to protect from chafing and abrasion along the struts to the leading edge. Thin foam padding is inserted underneath and forms a lightweight durable buffer to lift the kite slightly off rough surfaces, and protect the stitching along the struts and leading edge seams.

STEERING IMPULSE OPTION

– Bar pressure/steering impulse wing tip tuning options let you fine-tune the kite to your personal preference.

KEVLAR REINFORCED STRUT SYSTEM

– For the most accurate and durable connection between the strut and the leading edge.

NO-PULLEY BRIDLES

– Simplified. Less breakage. Removing the plastic pulleys from within the load-bearing part of the kite improves safety and your connection to the kite. The result is a lower drag, more accuracy, and a more direct feeling as the kite powers more evenly through the turn.

INCLUDE

– Kite, Bag, and repair kit
