<h2><strong>Now available the Core GTS6 Kitesurfing Kite at S2AS!</strong></h2> <p>Never owned a core kite? Ha, you're in for a treat, Everything you hear about Core is very true the brand's strength and attention to detail is unrivalled in the kitesurfing industry, other kitesurf brands with freestyle kites cannot touch the pure power, class, and ease of use of the Core GTS series. If you already have a GTS5 or any other Core Kite then you will already know that Core does not just change kites each year with a different colour like 90% of other kitesurfing companies, oh no! Each Core kite has a 2-year lifespan at least and a full 6-year replacement part guaranteed to be available.</p> <p>What Core says:</p> <p>"If you’re looking for a kite that unleashes indomitable megaloops on demand, or if you’re seeking a composed and well-mannered freeride kitesurfing kite for unpredictable winds, the Core GTS6 is both. This is a supremely multi-talented kite without rival!</p> <p>So you're addicted to life in the fast lane but in a good way. And when you go, you go big! We feel the same, riding our newest GTS. Feel alive thanks to the signature Future-C powered kite loops and unhooked confidence that this kite offers. Core’s winning-est kite now features redesigned ExoTex Light struts that are noticeably lighter and still robust as ever. The struts’ new shape, material, and diameter provide added canopy stability and a little more punch in the turns.</p> <p>2019 was another fantastic year for the GTS. Following up on Josh Emanuel’s win in 2017, another Core rider squeaked through the first round and looped his 8m GTS5 to gold in Red Bull’s Megaloop Challenge. Although Core doesn’t expect its GTS customers to be signing up for next year’s Megaloop competition, we think they could with this new GTS6 and a little bit of practice.</p> <p>“It’s a real challenge to improve something as good as the GTS,” comments chief kite designer, Frank Ilfrich. “But improving kite construction is something we’re good at.” With input from our top team riders, CORE’s designers have squeezed a little more control and power into the loops.</p> <p>The indomitable GTS5 is built with precision steering; a prodigious operating range; and CORE's legendary linear power. Its fully adjustable handling lets riders throw the tightest loops (in waves) and the biggest Cape Town style mega loops in total control.</p> <p>The GTS6 carries over its proven 3 Strut Frame, Radical Reaction Tips, and Short Bridles from the fantastic GTS5. Core have optimized the leading edge diameters and tip geometry to improve flight stability (especially when looping.) Also, the CIT Modes now feature no-snag loops. which still customize the GTS' handling characteristics. In Wave mode, riders dial in compact turns and more depower. Whereas in Freestyle mode, the kite adds more grunt and bigger turns.</p> <p>Everything you love about the GTS5 is still in the new GTS6, 3 Strut Frame, Radical Reaction Tips, and Short Bridles and Future-C canopy, still forms the nucleus of the GTS. The design team beefed up the leading edge. And they made significant improvements to the struts. The new larger diameter ExoTex Light struts resist bending, save weight, and lend a sportier, punchier feel in the loops.</p> <p>Do you enjoy a proper yank from a legit looping machine?

<h2><strong>Check out the Cabrinha Drifter Icon with us at S2AS!</strong></h2> <p>The Drifter from Cabrinha is one of a kind, it's ability to easily engage and dis-engage it's power makes wave riding as effortless as it can be. Using the power to pull you into position, and then the option to shut the power off and surf the wave as nature intended has always been what keeps riders coming back to this kite.<br /> <br /> The Icon Drifter is un-changed in terms of flying and construction characteristics, with an updated graphic for this Limited Edition Model. The 250 Limited Edition Drifter ICON collection gives a nod towards it's industry changing heritage and give riders the chance to enjoy their own completely unique product which represents an Iconic Legacy.<br /> <br /> Each of the Drifter ICON kites comes with an official badge collectors number and limited edition ICON bag. Here's a word from Pete Cabrinha: "There are no products that represent kite surfing as well as the Cabrinha Switchblade and Drifter. Heros have been made, records have been broken, and the path to progression has been attainable by all through these iconic kites. This year we celebrate enduring performance with the Switchblade and Drifter Limited Edition Icon Series"<br /> <br /> With only a limited number of 250 of these beauties being made, make sure you a part of history!</p> <h3><strong>Features:</strong></h3> <p>- Pure Profile Panels: 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! <br /> - Onshore / Offshore: Customizable settings designed to optimize performance based on wind direction. Offshore facilitates better upwind ability which allows for easier cutbacks in offshore wind. Whilst the onshore setting provides for the maximum amount of “drift” as well as tighter turning.<br /> - Slackline Drift: The ability to park itself and stay aloft longer when the lines go slack so you can focus entirely on riding the wave.<br /> - High Tenacity Dacron: 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<br /> - Skeletal Frame: 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.<br /> - Volae Materials: 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.<br /> - 1X Security: 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.<br /> - Sprint System w/Airlock: 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 Airlock connection to the Sprint pump requires no special adapters.<br /> - Dynamic Arc: Dynamic arc allows the kite to have two distinct arc shapes, one shape while flying, and another shape while resting on the water for an easier relaunch.<br /> - Power Control: Every Cabrinha kite comes with a simple, user adjustable way to choose the power level of the kite. Each rear line “pigtail” connector has three power positions you can connect to, allowing the rider to customize their ride.</p>
<h2><strong>Take a look at the Airush Union V6 Kitesurfing Kite with S2AS!</strong></h2> <p>The Union V6 is the ideal kite for the rider looking for a ride that perfectly balances big air, kiteloops and freestyle!<br /> <br /> Benefiting from the new v3.2 bridle system, the Union maintains steering even when completely depowered which increases it's overall usable wind range and overall performance. The Unitity Strut Connection offers a solid point where the strut connects to the leading edge which creates a stiff structure which helps the efficiency of the kite and also aids it's relaunch capabilities. This open-C kite offers great all round riding and will give you back as much as you put in!<br /> <br /> The Union Kitesurfing Kite from Airush delivers incredible lift and hang time when going for big air, along with quicker, lighter and ultra-responsive steering. 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.</p> <h3><strong>Materials: </strong></h3> <p>- Airush Load Frame V4 Featuring Webtech: The Airush Load Frame, featuring WebTech, has been the key to setting the ultimate benchmark in durability without compromising on weight. By expanding our exclusive Load Frame with WebTech throughout the areas normally occupied by Dacron, we are 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 /> - Intergrated High Modulus Polyethylene Yarns: Central to the concept of the Load Frame are the lightweight Ultra High Modulus yarns, of which every single yarn can carry 40kg. Think of them as a lightweight web with engineered energy absorption under load, similar to a spider’s web. These yarns are integrated into the canopy through reinforced taping that allows them to elongate under extreme load, absorbing most of the shock that would have typically run through the canopy. At the same time, they carry the primary load of the canopy, preventing stretch, and increasing long-term performance.<br /> - Webtech: WebTech minimizes or replaces the traditional Dacron reinforcement by channeling the broader loads into the Load Frame through a web ‘subframe’ 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: This premium fabric is designed with a high-density structure that uses 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, ensuring that the canopy remains crisp and responsive for as long as possible. This exceptional material is used in conjunction with the Airush Load Frame, resulting in the ultimate combination of durability and performance.</p> <h3><strong>Features:</strong></h3> <p>- 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.<br /> - Four Piece Strut: The four-piece strut has an added double folded triple stitched seam aligned with a 20mm wide webbing strip to reduce points of wear. This increases the durability and rigidity of the struts.<br /> - Heavy Duty LE: By using our Gradient Load Technology on the bridle insert points and leading-edge closure (along with double stitching), as well as Dimension Polyant Dacron, we have created a heavy-duty leading edge that supports the increased performance demands.<br /> - V3.2 Bridle System: The key benefit of the V3.2 bridle is that the kite 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.<br /> - Unity Strut Connection: The Unity Strut Connection provides a solid point from strut to leading edge, to create a stiff structure that helps in performance and relaunching.</p>

A kite that will offer perfect drift whilst charging down the line towards the next section, agile turning after your impact with the lip, making sure it is exactly where you need it to be.<br /> <br /> The bridles on the new Session are interchangeable, with a fixed bridle which offers more direct steering with a more on-off power delivery feeling or why not change it up to the pulley bridles which offer a smooter more proggressive gust response with a lighter bar pressure. As expected all of the Airush key features in terms of construction with the Load Frame, Technoforce D2 canopy and Kevlar reinforcement, not only will the Session excel in performance, it will happily stand up to the beating you can give it!<br /> <br /> Perfect drift, agile turning, and effortless boost, the Session is for the rider wanting a versatile surf oriented kite with performance freeride capabilities.</p> <h3><strong>Materials:</strong></h3> <p>- Airush Load Frame V4 Featuring Webtech: The Airush Load Frame, featuring WebTech, has been the key to setting the ultimate benchmark in durability without compromising on weight. By expanding our exclusive Load Frame with WebTech throughout the areas normally occupied by Dacron, we are 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 /> - Intergrated High Modulus Polyethylene Yarns: Central to the concept of the Load Frame are the lightweight Ultra High Modulus yarns, of which every single yarn can carry 40kg. Think of them as a lightweight web with engineered energy absorption under load, similar to a spider’s web. These yarns are integrated into the canopy through reinforced taping that allows them to elongate under extreme load, absorbing most of the shock that would have typically 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: This premium fabric is designed with a high-density structure that uses 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, ensuring that the canopy remains crisp and responsive for as long as possible.

The Longer bar throw means that you get a controlled longer depower range, keeping your backlines tight even at full depower. The 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.<br /> - XL Inflate/Defalte Valve: The XL Inflate/Deflate Valve features 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. This in conjunction with the Airush High Velocity pump makes inflating your kite extremely fast to get you on the water as quickly as possible.<br /> - Airush Bumpers: 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 /> - Kevlar Reinforcement: Found throughout the Airush kites. These Kevlar Reinforcements are only put in the most critical areas to protect from wearing while still minimizing weight which affects the kites performance.<br /> - Recycled Polyester Kitebag: Around 36 billion plastic bottles are produced every year, and more than 30% of non-recycled plastics will end up in the rivers or oceans. Consider this and remember that these waterways are our playground. Airush have teamed up with one of the leaders in recycled plastic, and now we produce many of our kite bags 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 usable, sustainable yarns.

<h2><strong>Peter Lynn Nova Kitesurf Foil Kite Now Available From S2AS</strong></h2> <p>The Nova is our new, unique depower foil kite. This one of a kind foil was designed to unite all the benefits of LEIs, like accessibility, ease of use and stability, with all the advantages of foils: better upwind, downwind, low wind performance and float. <br /> <br /> When designing the Nova, Peter Lynn had one goal in mind, to build a foil dedicated to speed up the learning curve of hydro foiling and that provides the best freeride feeling a foil can offer. It offers a stable and reliable riding experience in which you can focus on your board technique rather than on controlling your kite. If you want to spend more time above water but fear the foil, this is the kite for you.</p> <p><strong>COMFORTABLE BAR PRESSURE, LOW SIDEWAYS PULL</strong></p> <p>To get up on a hydrofoil it is important that the kite doesn’t generate too much sideways pull. Low sideways pull allows you to focus on holding your balance rather than dealing with the power of the kite.</p> <p><strong>HIGHLY STABLE, RIGID WING</strong></p> <p>The Nova’s high cell count and internal construction makes for a firm wing that doesn’t deform or has its tips fold in, this makes the kite highly reliable, and the bridle is tuned to offer maximum stability. The NOVA delivers much more power than an average LEI, making you able to use a small size in low wind.</p> <p><strong>FOIL SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE, EASE OF A LEI</strong></p> <p>Even though foil kites offer many advantages like low wind performance or upwind ability, many LEI riders consider foilkites to be difficult to use. This is why the Nova is special.</p> <p><strong>FILLS FAST, RETAINS INTERNAL PRESSURE.</strong></p> <p>The Nova’s 4 inlets have been placed in such a way that air gets in easily and the internal structure allows this air to move freely inside the kite to speed up inflation. At the same time, the valves inside the wing prevent air from getting out.</p> <p><strong>Shape Memory Structure [SMS]</strong></p> <p>D and H ribs allow for minimal bridle points and optimal cell bulging, creating a firm shape for easy-relaunch , stability and playful riding.</p> <p><strong>Medium Aspect Ratio, high cell count</strong></p> <p>Highly stable, accessible performance</p> <p><strong>High End Paraglider CANOPY</strong></p> <p>High end paraglider canopy with soft coating provided for top and bottom skin combined with a hard coating for the internal body. Creating a taugh yet lightweight canopy construction.</p> <p><strong>Dynacore Bridle</strong></p> <p>Clear bridle plan</p> <p><strong>One Line Relaunch</strong></p> <p>The water isn’t a challenge anymore</p> <p><strong>Ronstan® Orbit pulleys</strong></p> <p>A self-securing speed system</p> <p><strong>Single Designs</strong></p> <p>For similar performance and feel across the range</p> <p><strong>Reinforced bridle points</strong></p> <p>For a secure connection</p> <p><strong>Cross-Vents</strong></p> <p>A smart profile design to reduce weight and create and easy infow</p> <p><strong>LIMITLESS RIDING</strong></p> <p>Riding a hydrofoil gives you the freedom to explore kiting in a different and magical way; ride waves, make turns, jump around or just cruise. There are no limits. Combine this with the ultra-wide wind range and stability of a foil kite and you’re golden. <br /> <br /> We believe every kiteboarder should be able to experience the magic of riding a hydrofoil. To make foiling accessible even to the most dedicated LEI riders, we have created a kite that allows you to focus on getting up on your board without having to deal with your kite. The kite’s incredibly stability allows you handle your foil board without having to worry about your kite.<br /> <br /> Kiting with a foil gives kiteboarding a whole different perspective. With an LEI, there is only a stop and go. With a foil there is everything in between. It’s a Ferrari that drives faster if you shift it well. You learn something new but if you temper it, you will find new possibilities.</p> <p><strong>AGILE, STABLE, ACCESSIBLE</strong></p> <p>We’ve created an accessible depower foil kite that comes very close to the feeling of a LEI, but with all the benefits a foil kite has to offer: better upwind, better downwind, better low wind performance and better float. With the use of lightweight materials, the NOVA only needs a summer breeze to make you feel magic.<br /> <br /> We have created a wing that doesn’t twist or has its tips fold in. It is highly stable yet agile, and it fills quickly with air due to a smart 4 intake system. <br /> <br /> We designed the NOVA with a relatively high cells and a balanced cell count, has resulting in a very stiff foil which retains its shape even under turbulent circumstances. <br /> <br /> Because foil kites like the Nova are highly efficient and deliver much more power per size than LEI’s you will be flying a much smaller wing than you might expect in any given wind speed.<br /> <br /> The float on the Nova is so good you could even use the kite to ride some waves whilst the kite happily drifts along… Riding a wave on a foil board is something close to extraordinary!</p> <h3><strong>IMPORTANT NOTES</strong></h3> <p><strong>SIZE SELECTION</strong></p> <p>Choosing the perfect foil size is different from a LEI kite. Ask an experienced rider, or contact us for advice beforehand.</p> <p><strong>FLAG OUT SAFETY</strong></p> <p>To guarantee your safety the Nova features the proven and trusted industry standard flag out system. It is recommended to check bridle lines, pulleys and the speed system for possible tangles before re-launching. To guarantee maximum safety, stay at home, on the couch, and binge watch your favourite TV show.</p> <p><strong>CARE FOR MATERIALS</strong></p> <p>Like any performance specific gear, it’s built out of extremely light weight materials which are more prone to damaging and/or stretching. Whilst we’ve chosen only the highest quality materials for you, it’s still necessary to carefully maintain the kite for its longevity. Special attention should be paid to the bridling and speed system.</p> <p><strong>ADVANCED SKILL REQUIREMENT</strong></p> <p>Even though the Nova is an easy to use depower foilkite, it does however require insight on how to fly these types of kites to prevent potentially dangerous situations. Even if you have the skills required, do not fly it in unpredictable or dangerous weather conditions, like offshore winds and/or (thunder)storms.</p> <p> </p>
