Each Strand of yarn is individually coated before being woven together. A second surface coating is then applied to the material, providing long term endurance. Teijin D2 is the benchmark in quality with proven superiority in durability and dynamics.<br /> - Challenge D2.9 RS Dacron: Designed specifically to combat the loads in an inflatable leading edge kite. This material has been shown to hold a kite’s shape better and longer than others by over 60%. We use warp oriented constructions using Ultra High tenacity yarns with an increased thread count to combat elongation in the warp direction under high inflation pressures. Lower elongation makes for a more accurate kite with less deformation while in flight</p> <h3><strong>Structure:</strong></h3> <p>- Shape: A kite that can jump, surf, and freeride starts with a moderate arc. This enables the prodigy to be a fast turning kite in combination with a large sheeting range<br /> - Ratio: A mid aspect ratio works in tandem with its arc to create a perfect balance between lift while never compromising kite response<br /> - 3 Strut Frame: A precision engineered 3 strut frame truly unlocks the ability to do a little bit of everything at any skill level. Constructed with a custom blend two dacrons provides the a carefully crafted balance of tenacity and agility. The struts are made of KP-E dacron providing incredible strength, durability, and rigidity; While the leading edge is made from Teijin dacron in order to reduce the overall weight without sacrificing its moxie<br /> - Bridles: A fixed short line bridle with a floating V design and a two pulley system creates direct and snappy response while also keeping bar pressure low. New to this generation are larks head loops on front bridles, and knots on the back lines making for an innovative system that stabilizes the leading edge. This allows the Prodigy to lift out of a loop and avoiding a stall for maximum climb</p> <h3><strong>Technologies:</strong></h3> <p>- Precision Curve Struts: Hold the designed foil shape delivering the desired performance through the wind range<br /> - Armortex Abrasion Guard: Ultra-light, non fraying, and abrasion resistant, these Kevlar/ nylon blend scuff protection pads deliver a streamlined no snag profile throughout the kite<br /> - Ultralite Construction: We use a blend of state of the art fabrics and components in order to bring to you the lightest and toughest kites we’ve ever made.

Ideal for the user looking for increased jumping performance and quicker depower response, and for the freestyle rider wanting unhooked performance with the usability of increased depower and a more forgiving feel. The wingtip design prevents back stalling, while the increased linear power delivery has made it even more suitable for freeriding, freestyle, and wave riders alike.<br/><br/>The Union is the natural step up for the Lithium kitesurfer looking for increased high end jumping performance and more forward steering. Ideal for the freestyle rider wanting unhooked performance and a more forgiving feel. For a more direct response and totally fresh feel, the new fixed bridle adds another dimension for an intermediate to advanced rider. It offers a direct response and uses less bar input for immediate steering and more crisp feel for improved kite looping.</p><h3><strong>Materials and Construction:</strong></h3><p>- Airush Load Frame v4 w/Web Tech: By expanding their exclusive Load Frame with WebTech throughout the areas normally occupied by Dacron, Airush were able to minimize or completely remove the heavier fabric and utilize the Ballistic high-modulus polyethylene web fibers instead – increasing strength and minimizing weight.<br/>- Integreteated High Modulus Polyethylene Yarns: Each single yarn can carry 40kg acting as a lightweight web with engineered energy absorption under load. These yarns are integrated into the canopy through reinforced taping that allows them to elongate when under extreme load, absorbing most of the shock that traditionally would have run through the canopy. At the same time, they carry the primary load of the canopy, preventing stretch and increasing long-term performance.<br/>- Technoforce D2: A premium fabric is designed with a high-density structure using high tenacity double-coated polyester yarn in a double ripstop configuration. The double coating protects the yarn as much as possible from UV and abrasion damage. This ensures that the canopy remains as crisp and responsive for as long as possible.<br/>- Kevlar Reinforcement; Kevlar, found in bulletproof vests, is found throughout the Airush kites. These Kevlar reinforcements are only put in the most critical areas to protect from wear and tear while still minimizing weight that affects the kites performance.</p><h3><strong>Features:</strong></h3><p>- XL Inflate/Deflate Valve: An insanely easy and fast way to inflate and deflate your kite. The large opening creates maximum flow of air and reduces fatigue and stress on your pump. <br/>- Airush Bumpers: Found throughout the leading edge of the kites to reduce wear and increase durability on rough surfaces. These bumpers are key for increasing the lifespan of Airush kites.<br/>- SPS & FBI: The oversized SPS valve (Single Point Inflation System) optimizes inflation and deflation. The Fast Bladder Inflation (FBI) features increased wall thickness and oversized diameter tubing, thus eliminating tube kink, reducing stress on your pump, and enabling quick and easy inflation. The SPS cover supports the tubing, further limiting UV damage to the material and preventing over flexing when packing.<br/>- Recycled Polyester Kitebag: Airush now produce many of their kitebags and key accessories in collaboration with Waste 2 Wear. Waste 2 Wear recycle 100% post-consumer plastic bottles into eco-friendly fabrics. This unique process involves turning environmentally damaging waste into useable, sustainable yarns. </p>
<h2><strong>Take a look at the new 2020 Airush Ultra V3 Kitesurfing Kite at S2AS!</strong></h2><p>The Ultra Kitesurfing KIte has yet again proven to be unbeatable for lightwind freeride performance, foiling, and wave riding alike. The exclusive Airush Load Frame, segmentation reduction through the canopy, and lightweight single strut geometry all contribute to increased durability and responsiveness.<br/><br/>An exclusive Airush Load Frame for maximum durability, the Ultra kite has been the go-to kite for foil riders, wave riders and snow kiters alike. When considering the Ultra evolution, a focus on segmentation reduction through the canopy and leading edge Lightweight Single Strut geometry increases the skin tension per panel. Fewer segments result in more tension between each segment point. This increases the responsiveness of the Ultra, while maintaining stability.<br/><br/>The Ultra kite is designed to maintain its shape and responsiveness the balanced geometry combines canopy curve, leading edge sweep and a specific trailing edge concave. </p><h3><strong>Materials and Construction:</strong></h3><p>- Lightweight Single Strut Geometry: By reducing the number of struts and combining this with WebTech smart reinforcing the weight of the Ultra is minimised. This enables a greater level of performance in all wind conditions and allows us to push the boundaries of light wind performance.<br/>- Airush Load Frame v4 w/Web Tech: By expanding their exclusive Load Frame with WebTech throughout the areas normally occupied by Dacron, Airush were able to minimize or completely remove the heavier fabric and utilize the Ballistic high-modulus polyethylene web fibers instead – increasing strength and minimizing weight.<br/>- Integreteated High Modulus Fibres: Central to the concept of the Load Frame are the lightweight Ultra High Modulus yarns, of which each single yarn can carry 40kg. Think of them as a lightweight web with engineered energy absorption under load, similar to a spider web. These yarns are integrated into the canopy through reinforced taping that allows them to elongate when under extreme load, absorbing most of the shock that traditionally would have run through the canopy. At the same time, they carry the primary load of the canopy, preventing stretch and increasing long-term performance.<br/>- Web Tech: Minimizes or replaces the traditional Dacron reinforcing by channeling the broader loads into the Load Frame through a web “sub frame” of ultra-high-molecular polyethylene (Ultra High Modulus). This is featured in key areas such as the primary attachment points on the leading edge or the rear attachment points, while also being used to support structural components such as the center strut.<br/>- Technoforce D2: A premium fabric is designed with a high-density structure using high tenacity double-coated polyester yarn in a double ripstop configuration. The double coating protects the yarn as much as possible from UV and abrasion damage. This ensures that the canopy remains as crisp and responsive for as long as possible.<br/>- Kevlar Reinforcement; Kevlar, found in bulletproof vests, is found throughout the Airush kites. These Kevlar reinforcements are only put in the most critical areas to protect from wear and tear while still minimizing weight that affects the kites performance.<br/>- Optional Fixed or Pulley Bridles: Supplied with two sets of bridles, which can be interchanged using the same bridle attachment points. For the classic Airush feel of smooth depower and ease of use, the standard pulley bridle is recommended. The Longer bar throw means that you get a controlled longer depower range, keeping your backlines tight even at full depower. The new fixed bridle adds another dimension for the intermediate to advanced rider. It offers a direct response and uses less bar input for immediate steering and more crisp feel.</p><h3><strong>Features:</strong></h3><p>- V3.2 Bridle System: Maintains steering even when completely de-powered, increasing the usable wind range and overall performance significantly, while adding immense safety benefits. The positioning of the bridle attachment points on the LE of the kite, combined with the V pulleys result in lighter steering, but direct enough to feel where your kite is while riding. Further refinements have allowed Airush to reduce the length of the bridles, while maintaining the performance characteristics. The Airush Pulleys are made of tough Zytel material for high strength and resistance to abrasion and impact, the Airush Pulley has the pigtails hole directionally correct to eliminate bridle wear. With a breaking strength of 550 kg, the Airush pulley was designed specifically for use on all Airush kites<br/>- XL Inflate/Deflate Valve: An insanely easy and fast way to inflate and deflate your kite. The large opening creates maximum flow of air and reduces fatigue and stress on your pump. <br/>- Airush Bumpers: Found throughout the leading edge of the kites to reduce wear and increase durability on rough surfaces. These bumpers are key for increasing the lifespan of Airush kites.<br/>- SPS & FBI: The oversized SPS valve (Single Point Inflation System) optimizes inflation and deflation. The Fast Bladder Inflation (FBI) features increased wall thickness and oversized diameter tubing, thus eliminating tube kink, reducing stress on your pump, and enabling quick and easy inflation. The SPS cover supports the tubing, further limiting UV damage to the material and preventing over flexing when packing.<br/>- LIghtweight Kitebag: Even the kitebag has been optimized, using premium lightweight Ripstop nylon (mountaineering technology) to create a unique bag that folds into its own pocket and weighs less than 250gm<br/></p>
<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>
