<h2><strong>Take a look at the new 2019 Core NEXUS Kitesurfing Kite at S2AS!</strong></h2> <p>Gone are the days of travelling to the beach with heaps of gear — a quiver of wave kites, a quiver of freestyle kites and a separate set of kites for boosting. Now, you can do it all with the CORE Nexus and NEXUS LW. This new, future-C design combines key features from CORE’s proven Section 2, XR5, and GTS kites. Get out and try one!</p> <p>The Nexus, billed as two kites in one, but we found at least three things it’s really good at. Certainly, it’s great in waves, with more lift than a Section so it boosts better as well, but the slack line control is still there in spades and you can mess with the settings. One way for Surf, the other for freestyle on which settings if you’ve been trying that handles trick and not nailing it then chances are you will with the Nexus, it’s a lot more forgiving, less punch in the face than say the GTS4.</p> <p>Then in the middle settings, it’s just a great freeride kite, what makes it good at waves and freestyle also means it excels for intermediates wishing to just go ride, or push their individual envelopes. It’s not an XR5 so if you don’t know how to jump, pick your kicker, load and release it’s not going to take you to the moon like the XR5 will, but if you do know all that good stuff then it’ll do it better as the guys found out in Cape Verde where they broke the island height record using it.</p> <p>Then there’s foiling, lots of folks have spotted that what makes kites good in waves also makes them good on a foil, but there’s a little bonus with the Nexus particularly when your foil taking upwind, it’s extra lift in the vertical just gives you that extra through the tack, try one you’ll see what we mean. </p> <p>So there you have it what’s that? did we say three kites in one? Well make that four.. and friendlier than the fire from a US AirForce Warthog.</p> <h3><strong>Key Features:</strong></h3> <p><strong>Future C-Shape:</strong> True C-kite feel. For snappy turns with a controlled and consistent pull.</p> <p><strong>CIT Modes:</strong> Fully adjustable kite handling characteristics. Wave mode makes the kite turn faster and increases depower, whilst Freestyle increases the trun radius and stabilizes the kite and adds a little extra grunt. The Nexus comes out of bag in the Allround mode that sits nicely between the two</p> <p><strong>Radical Reaction Tips:</strong> C-style shaped wingtips for faster bar response.</p> <p><strong>3 Strut Light Frame</strong>: Super light yet amazingly rigid and durable.

<h2><strong>Take a look at the new 2019 Core XLITE Kitesurfing Kite at S2AS!</strong></h2> <p><strong><em>A completely new product from Core Kites developed specifically for the specialized discipline of foiling!</em></strong></p> <p>Never a company to release a new kite without having fully developed and fine-tuned every aspect to ensure it fulfils all the desired characteristics, Core Kites have once again achieved something special. Designed specifically for Core's Specialized Series; banner a unique line of products designed to fulfil a sole purpose and with the Xlite kite, that purpose is to be a truly outstanding, no compromise one strut inflatable kite with features specific to the unique discipline of foiling!</p> <p>One of the defining attributes of foiling is the ability to go kiting in conditions that would be unavailable to a traditional twintip or wave kiteboard, and in order to achieve this, a specialized kite is required, enter the Xlite! Originating as a hybrid of two specific Core kites; the Section and the Nexus, by utilising the phenomenal wave properties of the Section with the power of the Nexus in super light winds! The Xlite is a kite that can be both sized down and with an increased canopy aspect ratio to ensure that the kite stays ahead of the foil.</p> <p>In order, to achieve these incredible properties the Xlite went through a comprehensive lightweighting program in order to shed an incredible 10% in weight, for a kite that allows riders to still foil in 8-10 knots! To achieve this incredible weight reduction Core experimented with new leading edge materials and bridles until they were completely satisfied, settling with the CoreTex canopy for added support and power to the one strut design, ExoTex Light leading edge for a strong dacron material that is 10% lighter and lastly a thinner, anti-snag bridle that further reduces weight and improves water relaunching. </p> <p>With perfect kite balance and super direct bar feel, the Xlite makes learning new moves a blast!</p> <h3><strong>Key Features:</strong></h3> <p><strong>Future C-Shape:</strong> True C-kite feel. For snappy turns with a controlled and consistent pull.</p> <p><strong>CIT Modes:</strong> Fully adjustable kite handling characteristics.

<h2><strong>Take a look at the new 2020 Cabrinha Switchblade Kitesurfing Kite now available at S2AS!</strong></h2> <p><em><strong>Performance Freeride</strong></em></p> <p>The 2020 Cabrinha Switchblade Kitesurfing kite is built utilising the latest innovations in kite technologies to help deliver a high-performance kitesurfing kite with unparalleled predictability in the air. This is a kite that just oozes style!</p> <p>An incredibly versatile kite that will deliver no matter your style, the Switchblade performs in all aspects of kitesurfing whether your pushing your freestyle skills or pushing your limits by boosting huge airs this kite can do it all, thanks to its fantastic balanced design that provides not only power but reliability in the air. Always one of our first choices here at S2AS thanks to its ease of use.</p> <p>Updated for this season the Cabrinha Switchblade utilises the new and exclusive Nano Ripstop Canopy that increases canopy rigidity and durability creating for a higher-performing kite that will remain crisper and livelier for longer. </p> <p>If you're not convinced surely the Switchblade's countless world titles (Fastest sailing craft in the world - 2010. King of the air - 2017. Worlds highest tow-up jump - 2018.) as well as the constant praise it receives from thousands of satisfied customers can confirm its reputation as the world’s highest performance freeride kite.</p> <h3><strong>Design Profile:</strong></h3> <ul> <li>5 Strut Hybrid design</li> <li>Fusion Wing-tip Shape</li> <li>Draft Forward Profile</li> </ul> <h3><strong>Technologies: </strong></h3> <p><strong>Nano Ripstop Canopy: </strong>Launching Cabrinha into the future of kitesurf technology this new and exclusive material allows for improved stability and reactivity, developed with a unique new coating and treatment doubling the canopy's tear strength, for a kite that is not only more durable and delivers a higher level of performance, but remains crispier for much longer and has significantly reduced elongation over time</p> <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 Airlock connection to the Sprint pump requires no special adapters.</p> <p><strong>Dynamic Arc:</strong> 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.</p> <p><strong>Power Control:</strong> 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 new 2019 Core XR6 LW Kitesurfing Kite at S2AS!</strong></h2> <p><strong>High Performance Freeride+ | Freestyle | Wave</strong></p> <p>Everyone in kiting has experienced those days when the wind just tempts us. The XR6 LW takes out the guesswork of whether or not you can ride, trust us you can. The XR6 LW inherits all the power and range of its legendary little brother the XR6 while receiving measurable weight saving upgrades like CoreTex Light and Exotex Slim Struts!</p> <p>Fourteen years of development, hundreds of prototypes, and many inhospitable test sessions have gone into the XR6's signature ride. Frank Ilfrich, Core's head designer, knows how important it is not to lose the DNA that makes the XR what it is today and his team has succeeded again. The XR LW's linear responsiveness continues to deliver effortless cruising, record-breaking hangtime, and super smooth landings.</p> <p>After six generations, they've dialled in the characteristics Like prodigious power. Unbelievable depower. And precise control on the water and in the air. With the same tread depth in the centre as the XR5, but slightly flatter on the outside. For this purpose, the Bridle connection points and Strut geometry have been revised, small but crucial adjustments allow for even more control in high end, higher airspeed and better upwind capabilities, more pop and faster spin!</p> <p>The XR6 LW continues with Core's highly successful 5-strut, Delta Bow shape that isn't just a fan favourite; it also breaks records. Frank Ilfrich, went over every small detail and found weight savings in the leading edge, extra speed in the canopy, and efficiency improvements to our Speed Pump System. Frank and his team modified the strut curves to extract more stability especially when powered. The additional strut rigidity (and lowend grunt) required a small adjustment to the CIT bridle points to add a little more power steering. </p> <p>Now, it's your turn to break some personal bests with the new XR6.</p> <h3><strong>Key Features:</strong></h3> <p><strong>Delta Bow Shape: </strong>The XR6 curves with its concave trailing edge into a classic bow shape, with swept tips show genes of the Delta shape. This creates a greater depower and full power for better boosting, upwindability and earlier planing. Further improvements have allowed for even more pop and higher airspeeds.</p> <p><strong>5 Strut Frame: </strong>Lightwind kites require a stable screen in order to quickly gain reliable flow and propulsion. The XR6 Lw relies upon the tried and tested 5-Strut design for a stronger, stiffer and all-round more dynamic profile. Having been redesigned for the XR6 the struts have new geometry and seam guide, for more control, lift and hangtime without increasing the overall weight</p> <p><strong>CIT Modes: </strong>Allows the kitesurfer to adapt the kite to their riding preferences, with three different modes: Wave, Freestyle and Allround, for optimal revving and steering forces</p> <p><strong>Exotex® Slim Struts: </strong>Zero stretch airframe utilising a radical reinforcing thread pattern and protective coating process that allows for a higher pressure with a smaller diameter</p> <p><strong>Coretex® Light:</strong> Exclusive to Core this ripstop material is a lighter weight fabric which provides incredible breaking strength and tear resistance</p> <p><strong>Ultralight Wingtips:</strong> ExoTex Dacron provides weight saving on the leading and trailing edge whilst protecting trhe areas that come into contact with beach</p> <p><strong>Intelligent Arc: </strong>Designed to anticipate your desires in the air, by changing the projected area more up to more than 10%, pull on the bar and the kite spreads out its tips like wings, push it away and the kite pulls back in. Allowing the XR6 LW to seamlessly transition from big air boosting machine to precision turning instrument</p> <p><strong>Short Bridle System: </strong>Allows the XR6 LW to respond to the riders control impulses in a flash, resulting in perfectly linear depower, extremely dynamic flight and turning characteristics</p> <p><strong>Speed Valve 2: </strong>The Speed Valve 2 connects directly to any standard 20mm OD twist lock pump hose. The Speed Valve 2 maximizes airflow, minimizes inflation times and noticeably reduces pump pressure. This inflation/deflation system is so good you may even have the energy for an extra trick or two.</p> <p><strong>Speed Pump System: </strong>Fully pumped in no time.

<h2><strong>Take a look at the new 2019 Core NEXUS Kitesurfing Kite at S2AS!</strong></h2> <p>Gone are the days of travelling to the beach with heaps of gear — a quiver of wave kites, a quiver of freestyle kites and a separate set of kites for boosting. Now, you can do it all with the CORE Nexus and NEXUS LW. This new, future-C design combines key features from CORE’s proven Section 2, XR5, and GTS kites. Get out and try one!</p> <p>The Nexus, billed as two kites in one, but we found at least three things it’s really good at. Certainly, it’s great in waves, with more lift than a Section so it boosts better as well, but the slack line control is still there in spades and you can mess with the settings. One way for Surf, the other for freestyle on which settings if you’ve been trying that handles trick and not nailing it then chances are you will with the Nexus, it’s a lot more forgiving, less punch in the face than say the GTS4.</p> <p>Then in the middle settings, it’s just a great freeride kite, what makes it good at waves and freestyle also means it excels for intermediates wishing to just go ride, or push their individual envelopes. It’s not an XR5 so if you don’t know how to jump, pick your kicker, load and release it’s not going to take you to the moon like the XR5 will, but if you do know all that good stuff then it’ll do it better as the guys found out in Cape Verde where they broke the island height record using it.</p> <p>Then there’s foiling, lots of folks have spotted that what makes kites good in waves also makes them good on a foil, but there’s a little bonus with the Nexus particularly when your foil taking upwind, it’s extra lift in the vertical just gives you that extra through the tack, try one you’ll see what we mean. </p> <p>So there you have it what’s that? did we say three kites in one? Well make that four.. and friendlier than the fire from a US AirForce Warthog.</p> <h3><strong>Key Features:</strong></h3> <p><strong>Future C-Shape:</strong> True C-kite feel. For snappy turns with a controlled and consistent pull.</p> <p><strong>CIT Modes:</strong> Fully adjustable kite handling characteristics. Wave mode makes the kite turn faster and increases depower, whilst Freestyle increases the trun radius and stabilizes the kite and adds a little extra grunt. The Nexus comes out of bag in the Allround mode that sits nicely between the two</p> <p><strong>Radical Reaction Tips:</strong> C-style shaped wingtips for faster bar response.</p> <p><strong>3 Strut Light Frame</strong>: Super light yet amazingly rigid and durable. Also able to initiate turns faster than a five-strut design important for wave riding</p> <p><strong>Exotex® Ultra Rigid Dacron: </strong>Zero stretch airframe utilising a radical reinforcing thread pattern and protective coating process that allows for a higher pressure with a smaller diameter</p> <p><strong>Coretex® Triple Ripstop Canopy:</strong> Extreme durability and UV protection setting the benchmark for longevity and tear resistance</p> <p><strong>Surf Profile:</strong> Modified camber for improved drifting and balance.</p> <p><strong>Ultrashort Bridle System:</strong> Improved kite feedback.</p> <p><strong>Instant Relaunch:</strong> Reliable water starts in difficult conditions.</p> <p><strong>Speed Valve 2: </strong>The Speed Valve 2 connects directly to any standard 20mm OD twist lock pump hose. The Speed Valve 2 maximizes airflow, minimizes inflation times and noticeably reduces pump pressure. This inflation/deflation system is so good you may even have the energy for an extra trick or two.</p> <p><strong>Speed Pump System: </strong>Fully pumped in no time. Huge air hoses and strut valves allow uninhibited air flow.

The AV8 kite is a highly efficient 5-strut power source that can facilitate an incredibly high VMG (Velocity Made Good). Its lean profiles and optimized AR deliver the highest level of performance in a light weight inflatable structure.</p> <p>The AV8 flies upwind with speed and an incredibly rigid frame. When riding off the wind, the AV8’s power delivery is full and stable. The AV8's flat arc shape makes it ideal for huge lofty jumps combined with silky smooth landings.</p> <h3><strong>Design Profile:</strong></h3> <ul> <li>High Tenacity Dacron for enhanced arc stability</li> <li>Ultimate performance in the widest range of conditions and variety of riding styles</li> <li>Smooth power delivery</li> <li>Predictable handling with superior stability and range </li> <li>Large sweet spot</li> <li>Great upwind performance</li> <li>Ridiculously high hang times</li> <li>Distinctly agile and light precision steering</li> <li>Easy relaunch</li> <li>Stability in high wind conditions</li> <li>Powerful and efficient</li> </ul> <h3><strong>Technologies: </strong></h3> <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>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 Airlock connection to the Sprint pump requires no special adapters</p> <p><strong>Power Control:</strong> 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>

<h3><strong>Check Out The 2019 Flysurfer Peak 4 Kitesurf Kite Now Available From S2AS</strong></h3> <p>The fourth generation of our Peak is the obvious choice for the most progressive mountaineers and an essential tool in the growing backcountry kite touring movement.</p> <p>The fascination of climbing steep slopes in the lowest wind speeds shifts the boundaries of possibilities and lets you dream of days with endless deep snow descents. In the high mountains our athletes require absolute confidence in their equipment, the Peak4 relies on safety-optimized technical features and further improves the strengths of the single-skin foil kite concept, as well as its flight feeling.</p> <p>The B-Safe System is the heart of the Peak4 as it ensures maximum safety, as well as being simple and easy to reactive. The new reduced bridle layout is colour matched to create a better contrast with the ground and increase user-friendliness. Our tried and tested DLX+ and X-Light cloth material mix increases durability while still being able to make the Peak4 the lightest Flysurfer kite in the lineup. Thanks to the new Hybrid Wingtip Technology, used for the 1st time, PEAK riders will be able to experience unmatched stability as well as improved turning and bar feedback.</p> <p>The Peak4 is confidence inspiring and offers a familiar flying feel with continuous power delivery and increased back stall resistance. The result is an ultra-light freeride kite for every beginner which will also meet the needs of daring outdoor athletes.</p> <h3><strong>Total package consists of:</strong></h3> <p>1x PEAK4 Kite only<br /> 1x Kite Safety Guide<br /> 1x Repair Kit<br /> 1x Set of B-Safe Top Lines<br /> 1x Sandbag<br /> 1x PEAK4 Bag</p> <h3><strong>Features</strong></h3> <p><strong>Hybrid Wingtip Technology</strong></p> <p>Hybrid Wingtip Technology consists of two self-inflating cells on each wingtip of the kite. The openings are protected with mesh material to prevent entry of snow or dirt. The more efficient aerodynamics of the wingtip allows for tighter turning with constant pull, as well as increased back stall resistance. Through that, the bar feedback has been improved considerably, and the flapping of the tip is almost eliminated, giving the Peak4 a sporty but familiar and confidence inspiring feeling.</p> <p><strong>B-Safe System</strong></p> <p>The B-Safe System is guided along the B-Level attachment points, through polypropylene sliding rings. After activating the quick release, the bar slides up the 5th line and the kite is reefed horizontally in the middle. This removes the pressure in the kite and allows it to come down powerless through the wind window. The PEAK4 can then be reactivated immediately and can be restarted in the power zone. Independent launching and landing of the PEAK4 is fully supported by this safety system.</p> <p><strong>Single Skin Foilkite Concept</strong></p> <p>The Single-Skin foil kite concept has a very efficient depower and allows for immediate loss of power using the bar throw, offering the PEAK4 high levels of safety on the mountain. Its performance and unparalleled traction generate amazing power per square meter. Increased profile curvature for the PEAK4 maximises lift and agility. The most obvious benefit of the Single Skin concept is the reduced mass of the kite, allowing the PEAK4 to be stable whilst flying at the edge of the wind window in the slightest breeze, without overflying and remaining easy to control in low to high winds.</p> <p><strong>Optimized Construction</strong></p> <p>The PEAK4 uses our proven material mix of DLX+ & X-Light cloth, as well as new reinforcements in areas subject to particularly high loads such as the leading edge, the wingtip and the trailing edge of the kite. The single skin concept simply collapses during hard crashes on the leading edge, and therefore can not burst or be badly damaged. The new outline of the PEAK4, the reduced number of cells and bridle layout, in addition to the use of X-Light cloth used for large areas of the canopy, resulting in an incredibly light kite, which has the smallest pack size and is therefore perfectly suited for kite touring</p>

<h2><strong>2019 Flysurfer Sonic Race Kitesurf Kite Available Now At S2AS</strong></h2> <p>At Flysurfer Kiteboarding – the competitive race scene is a proving ground for kiteboarding technology – our dedication to this aspect of the sport isn’t just for show. It’s a science. Pushing the Sonic Race to the limit reflects the spirit of the brand and all of the men and women who strive for victory.</p> <p>To strengthen their competitiveness and to lay the foundation for the success of our athletes, they are continuously investing in a great racing team and in research and development of our highest performance wing. Flysurfer Sonic Race developer Benni Boelli supports Flysurfer's athletes during the pro tour season continuously in order to improve the product. You directly benefit from years of great teamwork and a passion for hydrofoil, snowkite and kite buggy racing. </p> <p>The Sonic Race lightweight construction is built upon Flysurfer's new X-Light fabric for maximum durability and highest stability. The 3-Level Bridle Design and a total rework of the airfoil highly improves the aerodynamic efficiency; which results in stunning speeds with improved angles on all courses and even better – almost unreal light wind abilities.</p> <p>Designed on short flying lines and supported by rigid construction and a new mixer which provides reliably-quick maneuvering of the wing, the Sonic Race shows its strength in gusty winds and let you fully focus on your riding to win the toughest races.</p> <h3><strong>Features</strong></h3> <p><strong>X-Light Fabric</strong></p> <p>At FLYSURFER Kiteboarding, we made weight reduction one of the important development goals for the SONIC Race. The new X-Light Fabric has the best qualities for maximum performance and impressive longevity. The incredibly lightweight (32g / m²) double-ripstop material is highly tear-resistant as well as airtight, and provides an extremely smooth sail. The X-Light cloth underlines our philosophy of sustainability. You can trust the X-Light Fabric – built into your SONIC Race – to help you reach your best performance every season.</p> <p><strong>3-Level Bridle Design (A, B, Z)</strong></p> <p>The next generation in race-kite development. The 3-level bridle design dramatically reduces the number of lines and the associated resistance by an incredible 30%. The fully-spliced, uncoated Dyneema SK99 lines are the perfect choice for this application. The result: the best angles at maximum speed on every course. The SONIC Race cuts cleanly through the air.</p> <p><strong>Modern Competition Technology</strong></p> <p>Our FLYSURFER Kiteboarding athletes worked hard with the R&D race specialist Benni Bölli on the fine tuning of the kites. The sleek SONIC Race is constructed using the shortest flying lines (from 12-17m, depending on the size), to allow for the fastest maneuvers and kiting at the lowest angles. The highlight is the mixer, which can be adjusted by means of a new splice system. Due to the high aspect ratio of the kite, it is difficult to uniformly adjust the angle of attack. But the new mixer is a perfect match for the 3-Level Bridle Design and changes the ratio evenly from the middle of the kite down to the tips while braking / depowering. The system transfers power to the kite by means of three deflection pulleys – A1 with 8:1, B1 with 4:1 and B2 with 2:1 – creating a steady pathway that provides uncompromised maximum performance.</p> <p><strong>High-Performance Construction</strong></p> <p>The SONIC RACE is imbued with our most cutting-edge technologies taken from both the kite and paragliding development. Proven features such as Cordwise Ballooning, Rigid Foil Technology, and Sharp Mini Ribs are integral parts of the design. The heart of the kite is in its lightweight construction: the arc curve on the B-level allows the surface to be supported along the entire span by means of fewer lines while at the same time keeping the load evenly distributed. The X-Light fabric makes the construction stiffer and allows for an incredible maximum speed with full control in the most difficult conditions.</p> <p><strong>Automatic Drainage System</strong></p> <p>The drainage system is integrated into the entire trailing edge of the kite and terminates with 4cm long openings near the tips. This drainage system allows water and sand to be drained automatically, without affecting the performance of the kite. This feature allows you to get back in the race quickly after a crash.</p> <p><strong>IKA registered</strong></p> <p>Take part in every official IKA – Formula Kite class race event. We have registered the SONIC RACE kite for every rider. This means that your FLYSURFER SONIC RACE is already approved for every IKA Formula Kite class race till 2020 and you DO NOT need to apply for an additional IKA plaque ID. This was changed for the 2017 racing season.</p>

<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>

<h2><strong>Check Out The 2019 Airush Ultra V2 Kitesurf Kite Now Available At S2AS</strong></h2> <ul> <li><strong>Perfect freeride foil capabilities.</strong></li> <li><strong>The lightest kite we have ever made.</strong></li> <li><strong>Improved high-end performance in larger sizes.</strong></li> </ul> <p>The Ultra V2 has redefined our lofty expectations of what a kite can do. The light weight and stability have opened up places we could never have kited, in marginal conditions we would not have considered kiteable.</p> <p>With unbeatable performance, weight saving features, and 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.</p> <p>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 V2, while maintaining stability.</p> <p>The Ultra V2 is designed to maintain its shape and responsiveness by maximising the benefits of the unique Airush Load Frame. The balanced geometry combines canopy curve, leading edge sweep and a specific trailing edge concave.<br /> <br /> By reducing the number of struts and combining this with WebTech smart reinforcing the weight of the Ultra V2 is minimised. This enables a greater level of performance in all wind conditions and allows us to push the boundaries of light wind performance.</p> <p>AIRUSH LOAD FRAME V4</p> <p>The Airush Load Frame featuring WebTech has been the key to setting the ultimate benchmark in durability, without compromising on weight.<br /> <br /> 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.</p> <p>INTEGRATED HIGH MODULUS FIBRES</p> <p>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. <br /> <br /> 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.</p> <p>WEBTECH</p> <p>WebTech 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.</p> <p>TECHNOFORCE D2</p> <p>This 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 /> <br /> This exceptional material is used in conjunction with the Airush Load Frame, resulting in the ultimate combination of durability and performance.</p> <p>V3.2 BRIDLE SYSTEM</p> <p>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.<br /> <br /> 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 /> <br /> Further refinements have allowed us to reduce the length of the bridles, while maintaining the performance characteristics.<br /> <br /> 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 kite</p> <p>LIGHTWEIGHT COMPACT KITEBAG</p> <p>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.</p> <p>AIRUSH BUMPERS</p> <p>Airush Bumpers are 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.</p> <p>XL INFLATE/DEFLATE VALVE</p> <p>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.</p> <p>SPS & FBI</p> <p>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.</p> <p>KEVLAR REINFORCEMENT</p> <p>Kevlar, found in bullet proof vests, is 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.</p> <p><img alt="Wind Range" src="https://airush.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/019_Wind-Range-Guides_UltraII_v2.png" /></p> <h3> </h3>

<h2><strong>Take a look at the new 2019 Core XR6 Kitesurfing Kite at S2AS!</strong></h2> <p><strong>High Performance Freeride+ | Freestyle | Wave</strong></p> <p>The latest innovations from industry-leading brand Core are put together in their brand new kitesurfing kite the XR6! Part of Core's Universal+ Series the XR6 has a unique design that allows it to perform in all conditions and disciplines. Carrying across the incredible power and unbelievable wind range of the previous freeride machine the XR5 the XR6 receives some impressive handling upgrades and weight reductions!</p> <p>With over fourteen years of development and many hundreds of prototypes tested in order to develop the XR6's signature ride, this kite is an astounding feat of engineering. Core will never realise a new version of a kite until they are absolutely certain that they have made the considerable improvements necessary to warrant replacing one of their kites, hence why there is often over 2 years between releases which also ensures that any Core kitesurfing kite will also hold a greater monetary value!</p> <p>Moreover, Frank Ilfrich, Core's head designer, knows how important it is not to lose the DNA that made the XR series what it is today and his team has succeeded again. The XR's linear responsiveness continues to deliver effortless cruising, record-breaking hangtime, and super smooth landings.</p> <p>After six generations, they've dialled in the characteristics Like prodigious power. Unbelievable depower. And precise control on the water and in the air. With the same tread depth in the centre as the XR5, but slightly flatter on the outside. For this purpose, the Bridle connection points and Strut geometry have been revised, small but crucial adjustments allow for even more control in high end, higher airspeed and better upwind capabilities, more pop and faster spin!</p> <p>The XR6 continues with Core's highly successful 5-strut, Delta Bow shape that isn't just a fan favourite; it also breaks records. Earlier this year, both Maarten Haeger und Ross-Dillon Player busted through the 30m barrier on their XR's. A feat that was previously considered impossible.</p> <p>Core's proven fabrics – CoreTex and ExoTex – are exclusively used on the canopy and leading edge. Lead designer, Frank Ilfrich, went over every small detail and found weight savings in the leading edge, extra speed in the canopy, and efficiency improvements to our Speed Pump System. Frank and his team modified the strut curves to extract more stability especially when powered. The additional strut rigidity (and low-end grunt) required a small adjustment to the CIT bridle points to add a little more power steering. </p> <p>Lastly, it is always important to remember that Core holds stock of all spare parts for an industry-leading six years so that if the worst might ever happen to your new XR6 Kite you can rest easy knowing that Core will be able to help you out!</p> <p>Now, it's your turn to break some personal bests with the new XR6.</p> <h3><strong>Key Features:</strong></h3> <p><strong>Delta Bow Shape: </strong>The XR6 curves with its concave trailling edge into a clasic bow shape, with swept tips show genes of the Delta shape. This creates a greater depower and full power for better boosting, upwindabilty and earlier planing. Further improvements have allowed for even more pop and higher airspeeds.</p> <p><strong>5 Strut Frame: </strong>Utilising this new refined and even stiffer strut geometry, means an ultra stable frame resulting significantly less deformation and more power on demand</p> <p><strong>Faster Turning Speed: </strong>Now even more agile and responsive, due to finetuning in the bridle points along with rebalanced stiffness produce more steering confidence than ever before</p> <p><strong>CIT Modes: </strong>Fully adjustable kite handling characteristics. Wave mode makes the kite turn faster and increases depower, whilst Freestyle increases the trun radius and stabilizes the kite and adds a little extra grunt. The XR6 comes in the All-Round mode combining the best of both options with its well balanced trim. Experience optimum turning pleasure and and variable steering forces</p> <p><strong>Exotex® Ultra Rigid Dacron: </strong>Zero stretch airframe that allows for a higher pressure with a smaller diameter. And thanks to the new unique vertical thread system and special coating system, the Leading Edge and all Struts of the XR6 and constructed outstandingly thinly, that is remarkably stiff and sturdy for a kite the runs high, turns defined, lifts explosively and always feels crisp and direct</p> <p><strong>Coretex® Triple Ripstop Canopy:</strong> Extreme durability and UV protection setting the benchmark for longevity, tear resistance and breaking load whilst remaining significantly lighter than some over brands</p> <p><strong>Intelligent Arc: </strong>Designed to anticipate your desires in the air, by changing the projected area more up to more than 10%, pull on the bar and the kite spreads out its tips like wings, push it away and the kite pulls back in. Allowing the XR6 to seamlessly transition from big air boosting machine to precision turning instrument</p> <p><strong>Short Bridle System: </strong>Allows the XR6 to respond to the riders control impulses in a flash, resulting in perfectly linear depower, extremely dynamic flight and turning characteristics</p> <p><strong>Grintex® Patches: </strong>Unbelievably abrasion resistant patches on every segment seam of the leading edge and struts result in a much more durable kite design, meaning fewer worries in less than ideal landing spots</p> <p><strong>Speed Valve 2: </strong>The Speed Valve 2 connects directly to any standard 20mm OD twist lock pump hose. The Speed Valve 2 maximizes airflow, minimizes inflation times and noticeably reduces pump pressure. This inflation/deflation system is so good you may even have the energy for an extra trick or two.</p> <p><strong>Speed Pump System: </strong>Fully pumped in no time. Huge air hoses and strut valves allow uninhibited air flow. And when you haven't kited in a few days, every second counts :)</p> <p><strong>Sensor Bar Ready:</strong> For maximum kite feedback and control pair this kite with a Sensor 2 or 2S bar.</p> <p><strong>6 Year Parts Availability: </strong>Core's Industry leading durability is backed by a 6-year replacement parts guarantee</p>

<h2><strong>Take a look at the new 2018 Liquid Force NV V8 Kitesurfing Kite at S2AS!</strong></h2> <p>Departures from the norm and outside of the box thinking are what bring strides in next generation product development. Not only does the NV have a new name, but also utilizes a complete new profile and airframe geometries.The most noticeable change is in the wingtip geometry, producing prolific improvements in kite input back to the rider, allowing the rider to focus on what is in front of them and not what is going on above them in the kite. Another benefit of this shape is reduction of wingtip flaring, allowing the kite to move faster through the wind window and reduce light wind back stalling. The leading edge diameter has become more tuned in shape by reducing the diameter in key areas. Reduction in LE shape adds in speed across the wind window and makes for a fluid turning radius. Support of the LE and canopy airframe has been improved over the past generations.</p> <p>The NV V9 utilizes a new bridle schematic that includes a V load transfer connection. This connection eliminates canopy distortion and creates a more stable bridge of bridle connection points supporting the LE.
