KITES

Vision MK5 “Prepare to want one”

All Terrain

The Vision is a versatile, easy to use, fun, responsive and predictable kite that will allow you to freestyle, waveride, learn how to kite or go fast on a freeride board both upwind and downwind. For 2017 the Vision’s shape is now more open which increases the turning speed and provides less bar pressure. The bridles and the pigtails are also shorter and overall the new features distinguish the Vision as a wonderful kite for all freeride and wave riding.

Sizes: 5 / 6 / 7 / 9 / 10,5 / 12 / 13,5 / 15

Obsession MK9 “There is no substitute”

Freestyle/Wave

This kite is light, fast, powerful, stable, and easy to be de-powered. The Obsession is a full bodied three strut high performance kite that is ideal for the kiter who desires an aggressive freestyle machine. Do you want to have some huge boosts, radical maneuvers, and constant power on tap? The foil profile allows the Obsession to float through the air and brings a more direct type of feeling on the bar while always having an abundance of power when fully sheeted in.

Religion MK7 “Read Waves, Not Slogans”

Dedicated Wave

Sizes: 4/5 / 6 / 7 / 9 / 10,5 / 12

The new completely redesigned tips allowed us to increase the responsiveness of the kite and create better sensitivity from the bar. Another major change is the reintroduction of the adjustable bridles. The bridles can be easily adjusted for a side-shore or an on-shore wind by moving the position of the bridle between two points. The new adjustments allows the possibility to change the pressure on the bar, the speed of rotation and position of the kite in the wind window.
