<p><strong>Pure Profile Panels: </strong>Providing Cabrinha's renowned stability, by strategically placing panels the design team have managed to double the aerodynamic profile for the foremost curvature control meaning the kite can fly much faster in the sky which in turn allows it to perform efficiently in a wider array of kiting disciplines! </p> <p><strong>High Tenacity Dacron</strong><strong>: </strong>Specifically manufactured by Cabrinha for inflatable kites, by developing the dacron using ultra-high tenacity yarns with an increased thread count, the design team have created a product that actively combats elongation particularly under the high pressures endured by a kitesurfing kite, resulting in a more accurate shape with less deformation that rival products</p> <p><strong>Skeletal Frame:</strong> Designed to work in unison with the Pure Profile Panels, this framework structure maintains that the kite remains in its true shape once inflated, even through the most turbulent of conditions to reduce the effects of deformation and continue to provide excellent de-power. This technology also provides the kite with a great ability to recover if stalled by ensuring the kite can't fold in upon itself. Furthermore the inflatable structure also reduces the amount of bridling necesscary for stability as well as improving safety by increasing flotation in the water and enabling easier re-launch.</p> <p><strong>Volae Materials: </strong>An exclusive line of high-quality woven fabrics designed specifically for kitesurfing. The Volae materials are made with accuracy and consistency and are guaranteed for every kite Cabrinha make. 2DR Double Ripstop material is designed to provide a lightweight, yet durable, canopy with extremely low stretch properties. This translates into a kite with the ability to lock in its intended shape, while remaining ultra-reactive to rider input.</p> <p><strong>1X Security:</strong> Upon activation of 1X’s single line flagging system the power of a kite is immediately killed and it will rest motionless on the water or land.</p> <p><strong>Sprint System w/Airlock:</strong> The Sprint inflation systems is the most efficient and easy way to get your kite inflated and deflated quickly. The enlarged Airlock valve quickly feeds air into all of the struts from a single location.

The result is steering that is light, but direct enough to feel where your kite is while riding. This also enables the kite to be steered and controlled when the kite is completely de-powered, which is ideal for wave riding.</p> <p>The Supported Leading Edge C-kite or SLC is dedicated to riders who want everything from a 5 line C-kite in a 4 line format. The SLC concept gives a C-shape arc and squarer wingtips, which delivers great turning and direct response in combination with the bridle that supports the leading edge, great range, depower and relaunching abilities.</p> <p>All Airush kites feature the Hardcore Construction, a focus and commitment to structural integrity.</p> <p> </p> <h3>Specs:</h3> <ul> <li>Intermediate to advanced all round versatility</li> <li>Direct and responsive steering</li> <li>Unhooked performance</li> </ul> <p> </p> <p>For more info on the 2016 Airush Union Kitesurf Kite, give us a call on 010202 738448</p>
<h2>2016 Airush Razor Kitesurf Kite (Black), the 2016 airush razor keeps the dedicated c-kite feel and performance that wakestyle and freestyle riders demand.</h2> <p>The 2016 Airush Razor keeps the dedicated C-Kite feel and performance that wakestyle and freestyle riders demand. Working closely with World Champion Alex Pastor we relentlessly focus on increasing the performance characteristics, specifically mind-blowing pop, unhooked ability and kite looping.

A new 15m size has been added, this extra large size has been tweaked to have lower weight by optimizing the size of the reinforcement panels and the LE diameter to make it feel like a smaller kite.</p> <p>This premium fabric is used in conjunction with the Dyneema Load Frame for the ultimate combination of durability and performance. Ongoing testing has highlighted the lowest stretch and UV stability, along with highest long-term reliability of any materials.</p> <p>This premium fabric is used in conjunction with the Dyneema Load Frame for the ultimate combination of durability and performance.

<h2><strong>Take a look at the new 2020 North Carve Kitesurfing Kite available at S2AS!</strong></h2> <p><strong>"Instant drift with a flick of the wrist"</strong></p> <p>Jalou Langeree's kite of choice the new Carve kite for 2020 is North Kiteboarding's incredible entry into the world of wave kitesurfing!</p> <p>Utilising a specifically larger leading edge diameter this wave kite has a rigid and stable frame requiring less inflation which allows the kitesurfer to ride a size smaller. A reactive and controllable kite the Carve is designed to deliver instant drift thanks to its ability to provide instant power/depower allowing it to stay in the pocket for much longer and out of the critical impact zone!</p> <p>Constructed differently from the rest of the North range the Carve is intended to sit further back in the wind window in order to enhance its already stable line drift and balanced in such a way that makes it almost incapable of nosediving; this kite is perfect for carving and tucking into that barrel. </p> <p>Thanks to its responsive two-stage arc design the Carve can pivot on a dime without producing excessive power delivering a steady and consistent pull for a super smooth drift! Lastly, North have completed this kite with an intensified surf construction; a dacron reinforcement on the canopy down the full length of the struts for improved durability.</p> <p>Designed to give everyone confidence out on the water, so that kiters can focus less of their attention on the kite and more on the surf, while strong freestyle characteristics makes it easy to throw lofty jumps with ease with plenty of hangtime to get those strapless freestyle tricks down!</p> <h3><strong>Features:</strong></h3> <p><strong>Medium Aspect Swept Design: </strong>Allows more area in the centre of the kite for greater efficiency and easy roll to relaunch </p> <p><strong>Profile Transition Panels: </strong>North have added an extra panel connecting from the leading edge seam to maintain their precise lateral profile shape, this creates a smooth transition from the segmented leading edge to the curved canopy. All the equates to a more aerodynamic shape with more efficient airflow and significantly less turbulence.</p> <p><strong>Kevlar Reinforced Strut System: </strong>By using this incredibly robust material means North can provide an accurate and durable connection between the struts to the leading edge</p> <p><strong>Exo-Skeleton Structure: </strong>A reinforced frame around the perimeter of the kite built from Techno Force 160gsm Dacron, placed to help ease the transition from the Kevlar strut system to the lighter canopy material. The use of this stretch-resistant material adds durability and strength while protecting the canopy and providing elongation control. Ultimately making the North kite more responsive with increased performance and lift yet still very flexible and dynamic.</p> <p><strong>Duralite Seam Protection: </strong>Foam padding is inserted along the leading edge to slightly lift the struts off the ground creating an lightweight protective barrier thats ensures the lifespan of the stitching and leading-edge by keeping them out of contact with abrasive beaches</p> <p><strong>Steering Impulse Option: </strong>The bar pressure/steering impulse wing tuning options allow the rider to finetune the kites performance to their own personal preference</p> <p><strong>Low Drag Pre-stretched Bridle Lines: </strong>A completely new manufacturing technique that allows the factory to pre-load the lines before cutting them, that means, first of all, they are much more consistent between kite to kite with a much-improved longevity thanks to a very low change in shrinkage or elongation.</p> <p><strong>No Pulley Bridles: </strong>A simplified system that ensures there are fewer potentials for breakages by removing the plastic pulleys for the load-bearing part of the bridle this not only improves the safety of the kite but results in lower drag, greater accuracy through the turns and a direct feeling from the kite itself</p> <p><strong>Teijin Techno Force: </strong>High density D2 Ripstop material made in japan using a high tenacity yarn for its lightness, high tearing strength and lasting endurance. Teijin is renowned for having the highest strength to weight ratio in the industry</p> <p><strong>Hyperflow Inflation System: </strong>This bayonet style main valve is compatible with most pumps, and thanks to its high volume inflation system means rapid inflation and deflation </p>
