Features
2-Ply Trailing EdgeThe 2-ply trailing edge buffers and disperses canopy flutter to reduce wear on the kite and enhance its durability. | Radial Segmented ArcShort linear segments accurately form the kite’s arch – the kites have multiple panels to reduce sharp edges on the kite’s arc. | High V AdapterThe High V Adapter changes the shape of the kite, making it slightly more c-shaped than flat. This small change allows the kite to have more pivotal turns for riders looking to megaloop. |
Quad-Tex Ripstop FabricThe Quad-Tex Ripstop fabric is an extremely durable material, creating a strong and stiff canopy. Quad-Tex withstands punishing conditions while maintaining high-performance characteristics over the long term. | New Thermoformed BumpersProtect the seams of your kite from wear and tear when launching and landing. | Aramid PatchesProvides protection and reinforcement to the seams on the leading edge. |
HT Plus SeamOur high-tenacity thread strengthens the leading edge along the seam, allowing you to confidently inflate your kite to a higher pressure for better flying performance | Molded Strut Ends
The molded strut ends provide additional reinforcements to protect the struts from natural wear and tear. | One Point Inflation System
Our one point inflation system provides quick and easy inflation and deflation of the kite. |
SureLock ValveStreamlined valve and pump hose locks to the valve. | Fixed BridleThe fixed bridle doesn’t have a pulley and it locks in the shape of the kite, giving direct feedback from the bar to the kite. | Diagonal Load SeamDistributes kite tension for a more powerful and balanced kite |
Progressive ProfileEvolving the profile along the wingspan allows the center sections to generate power while flatter tips minimize drag and allow for faster turning | Airmax 2 Pump(Sold separately) |
