<h2><strong>Check out the Used 2021 Core GTS6 LW - 15m Kitesurfing Kite (White/Black) at S2AS!</strong></h2> <p><strong>*mint condition this kite has only been used once, condition is like new and the canopy is still crispy</strong></p> <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>A new ExoTex Light leading edge, struts, with dacron re-enforcements help to massively reduce frame weight and increase strut stability, to create a kite that will megalop in even the lightest of winds! 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>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. 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? Are you experimenting with megaloop board-offs? Do your surfboard aerials rival your twintip tricks? If you answered yes to these, then get in touch with S2AS to get your hands on a brand new XR6!</p> <p>Give it all you got, the GTS6 will take you to infinity and beyond! </p> <h3><strong>Features:</strong></h3> <ul> <li><strong>Exotex Light Struts: </strong>Larger diameter struts are lighter & more rigid.</li> <li><strong>Exotex Light Leading Edge: </strong>Keeps the weight down significantly whilst also offering exceptional stability in the air</li> <li><strong>Future C-Shape:</strong> True C-kite feel.

<h2><strong>Check out the Used 2021 Core Section 3 - 8m Kitesurfing Kite at S2AS!</strong></h2> <p><strong>*this kite is in amazing condition as it has only be used once for a photo shoot</strong></p> <p>Are you looking for a kite that has a setting for each wind direction whilst wave riding? A kite that will stand up to the harshest pounding in the waves? A kite that drifts like no other, meaning you can easily make that next section smack! The Section 3 from Core has it all! The new CIT Modes means that you can calibrate your kite to the conditions. Three, anti snag bridle attachment points makes it easy to adjust your kite for onshore, allround and offshore conditions. The onshore making the kite sit a little depper in the window, giving it more frunt and better drift, and the offshore setting enables the kite to sit further forward in the window, giving higher depower and faster forward speed. The allround setting gives a good miuxture of both the onshore & offshore setting.<br /> <br /> With the new and improved short bridle system, it keeps your bridle short but sweet! The shorter bridle gives good feedback through the bar so you know exactly where your kite is in the sky. Pivot turning from the wingtip results in a super smooth loops regardless of size, so you really can charger that line and catch the next section!<br /> Shifting the maxiumum camber of the kite further back in the canopy, meaning that it is much flatter improves the drift of the kite, but pull in on that bar and there is instant feedback through your hands!<br /> <br /> As well as second to none flying characteristics with the Core Section 3 Kitesurfing Kite, it is backed up by it's bombproof construction, with a CoreTex Triple Ripstop Canopy and the ExoTex Ultra Rigid Dacron you can be confident that even with the worst wipeout, your kite will survive and you'll be ready to go again!</p> <h3><strong>Features:</strong></h3> <p>- Short Bridle System: A kite that responds to the riders control impulses in a flash, resulting in perfectly linear depower, extremely dynamic flight and turning characteristics<br /> - Future C-Shape: True C-kite feel.

<h2><strong>Check out the Used 2021 Core Sensor 3 Pro Bar & Lines at S2AS!</strong></h2> <p><strong>*Used but well looked after, lines are in great condition </strong></p> <p> </p> <p>SENSOR 2S+, PEERLESS IN DESIGN. AND NOW WITH THE NEW S-SYSTEM. LIGHT. DIRECT. SAFE.</p> <p>Your session’s awesomeness depends heavily on your gear. We believe the Sensor 2 control bar system contributes much more than you would think to kite performance. And it’s what you don’t see that makes our bars so unbelievably good. The functional know-how we hide inside and the minimalist design on the outside gives our bars the signature CORE confidence you expect. And the safety features you rely on. </p> <p>The Sensor 2 bar is now joined by the new Sensor 2S and Sensor 2S Pro. Two new bars with more tech wizardry that you can’t even see at first glance. Regardless of your bar selection, The CORE Sensor 2 bar system will provide you with the lightest, safest, and most direct feeling bar on the market. Because we sell more than just cool bars. We sell confidence.</p> <p><strong>Meet the new Sensor 2S.</strong> An intelligent mid-cycle update to the exceptional Sensor 2. A bar, where engineering ingenuity meets minimalism; where ceramic bearings are used to eliminate friction in the auto untwist function; and where Tectanium is used to make the thinnest and most aerodynamic depower lines. Technical innovations that make the Sensor 2S bar system peerless. Sometimes, it's what you don’t see, that makes it so good. Still not good enough for you? Then, you are ready for the new Sensor 2S Pro.</p> <h3><strong>Features:</strong></h3> <ul> <li><strong>Ceramic Untwist:</strong> Functional simplicity. Untwisting your front lines has never been easier. Front line twists only occur below the sensor 2s bar. An improved, below the bar, swivel with hi-tech ceramic bearings unravels the front lines virtually on its own or whenever the bar is pulled in. The days of manually spinning the front line swivel are over. Welcome to the sensor 2s era of super auto untwist!</li> <li><strong>S-Neck:</strong> Perfect balance. The stainless steel connection between the rotor qr and the depower lines is shaped to provide more symmetric pulling forces on the lines. S-neck: smoother auto untwist. Zero unwanted leverage. Perfectly symmetric pulling forces. Now that’s smart.</li> <li><strong>Tectanium S-Slide / Depower Lines:</strong> The Sensor 2S replaces the front lines from the “y” to the chicken loop with our exclusive, no stretch, tectanium. And we protect it with a 5.2mm, uv-stabilized, polyether where it passes through the bar. Techno speak for a really durable, self-lubricating, no pinch, depower line. The new, virtually frictionless, depower/safety lines are more aerodynamic, provide better feedback, and are more comfortable between the fingers. Just wait till you try it. You’ll see.</li> <li><strong>Ultralight Unibody Bar:</strong> Made in Germany. The featherlight, unibody bar comes in at a mere 230g. The key to the Sensor 2S’s light and super direct feel is found in its low mass and low bar-end height. Inertia is reduced and leverage is optimized. The sensor 2s sports a deeply contoured eva grip for long lasting comfort and excellent hold. The reduced diameter grip makes even gloved sessions more comfortable and less fatiguing. </li> <li><strong>Titanium Core:</strong> Leave it to Core to design the strongest bar ever. We engineered an internal, aircraft quality, grade 5 titanium alloy truss to reinforce the bar. The titanium’s featherweight rigidity gives, in part, the sensor 2s’s direct feel. And it permits a reduced diameter, no cramp, grip. </li> <li><strong>Rotor Quick Release:</strong> The only 2-way quick release you do not have to think about. Releasing the kite is as simple as turning the mechanism in either direction for a simple, safe and intuitive process. It’s well known that more torque can be generated twisting than pushing or pulling. Unlike conventional systems, our quick release does not require you to overcome the flow of water. The rotor sets the standard for ease of use, safety, and performance. Another advantage of the rotor over conventional push/pull systems is size. The rotor is shorter, lighter and more compact than those other systems. All things being equal, a shorter rotor permits a closer trim adjuster location. And who would not want to have a shorter reach to the trim adjuster?</li> <li><strong>Supported Single Frontline Safety (SSF):</strong> Exclusive to Core. When the rotor quick release is activated, the kite will fully depower and come to rest in a ‘drift launch-ready’ position (nose to wind) until you are ready. The benefits here are twofold. The kite stays put and does not want to relaunch into the sky. And there is no pull on the lines while the kite is in ‘drift launch-ready’ position simplifying the process of re-engaging the rotor quick release. So how does ssf work and why does the kite not ‘turtle’ and stay in the air? The answer is that the kite does not flag out on one front line or equally on 2 front lines. Ssf releases 100% of the back lines and flags the kite mainly on one front line. But sufficient tension remains on the other front line to steer the kite down. So in effect, it is the slight (unequal) tension on the other front line that prevents the kite from turtling and remaining sky bound.</li> <li><strong>Spliced Ends: </strong>A small but important detail relates to how we finish our line end loops. We don’t simply fold over the line and stitch it up. No, that’s cheating. We braid the loop before stitching and finishing for a safer, stronger, and more aerodynamic connection.</li> <li><strong>Durable 24m Lines:</strong> Made in Germany quality. Our line supplier, Liros, is a name synonymous with innovation and workmanship. For example, they pre-stretch our lines under heat. Only 1.8mm thick and sporting a breaking strength of 368 kg, the Sensor 2S lines will perform beyond your expectations. A small but important detail relates to how we finish our line end loops. We don’t simply fold over the line and stitch it up. No, that’s cheating. We braid the loop before stitching and finishing for a safer, stronger, and more aerodynamic connection.</li> <li><strong>Vario Width:</strong> One bar covers all our kite sizes. From 4 to 19m! Nice. The sensor 2s bar width is adjustable from 46cm to 52cm by moving one knot. The best design ideas are the simple ones. Switching widths is as easy as 1. Pull back the floater exposing the bar end leader. 2. Undo larks head knot on the back line where it attaches to the bar leader. 3. Pull on the opposite bar leader knot and reconnect larks head. Simple. And unbreakable.</li> <li><strong>Core Loop/Stick Set:</strong> You will even find core engineering at work here too. We designed the loop stick to move out of the way when unhooking so hooking back in is easier. This design also prevents unintentional unhooking too. Nice touch? We think so.</li> <li><strong>Sensor Adjuster:</strong> Easy, one line, trim adjustment for those who prefer simplicity. Our clam cleat design reduces pulling effort by 25% which is noticeable in powered conditions. Still not comfortable? Then follow our step by step instructions to lower the cleat for a shorter reach.</li> <li><strong>Plus Four Line Length Options:</strong> A Sensor 2S Bar with four line length options. Maximize your kite’s performance. Easily and inexpensively with the new sensor 2s+. A bar that replaces the standard 24m lines with our vario lines. Vario lines are liros sourced, 18m lines with a 2m and 4m extension. As a result, the sensor 2s+ can be outfitted with 18, 20, 22 or 24m lines. Go short in the waves. Or longer in your next race. Without buying more bars. Sensor 2+. Save money. Experiment. And have more fun</li> </ul>

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> <ul> <li><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</li> <li><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! </li> <li><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</li> <li><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.</li> <li><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.</li> <li><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.</li> <li><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.</li> <li><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.</li> <li><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.</li> </ul>
<h2><strong>Take a look at this (USED) Ocean Rodeo Flite 14.5m A-Series Aluula Ultra-Lite Frame Kitesurfing Kite at S2AS!</strong></h2> <p><strong>The kite was just flown a handful of times. <br /> Still new and crispy.<br /> <br /> Get the newest tech available in kitesurfing at a reduced price!!!</strong></p> <p><strong>Retail = £2329.00</strong></p> <p><strong>NOW = £1979.00</strong></p> <p>A revolution in kite design that will change the kitesurfing industry a material with zero stretch or distortion!<br /> <br /> Forget compromise! The Flite featuring Aluula is a 3-strut kite that is highly responsive yet lighter than current no-strut kites, providing optimum light-wind performance, while retaining precision and control in increased wind speeds. Ground-breaking new Aluula composite material which weighs in at just 82 grams per square meter (78g/m² lighter than traditional Dacron), the material is 100% UV stable and virtually <strong>unrippable</strong>. </p> <p>The widest and most accessible wind range ever seen, the Aluula Series kites allow for enhanced light wind performance and hold their shape and control in overpowered situations. Aluula remains rigid, with the low-stretch and quick-flex properties that reset any distortion significantly faster than traditional Dacron air frames. The result is improved control when reaching the kite’s top end, and improved performance throughout the wind range.</p> <p>The Aluula air frame delivers instant feedback not only from your bar input, but also from the wind, with gusts and lulls instantly transmitted to your control system, giving you the ability to maximize your kite’s power, depower and turning potential, revolutionizing your kitesurfing experience. </p> <p>The extreme light weight, combined with the stiff yet reactive Aluula air frame technology, means larger kites become supercharged, allowing performance levels to increase exponentially. To further build on the enhancements provided by Aluula, Ocean Rodeo have fine-tuned all our light wind manufacturing techniques and components, with the Flite Ultra Lite canopy using proven D2 double ripstop from Teijin.<br /> <br /> Incredibly responsive, the Flite excels in all riding styles and with whichever board you are riding. The days of compromise are over. The Flite featuring Aluula is the world’s lightest, strongest, and highest performing light-wind kite!</p> <p> </p> <h3><strong>Materials:</strong></h3> <p>- Aluula: An all-new series of kites built with the Aluula BLACK material, which features a graphene-enhanced composite that weighs just 82gsm (grams per square meter). To compare, traditional Dacron that weighs around 150gsm. UV stable and virtually unrippable, the Aluula BLACK composite can also withstand higher inflation pressures. Alongside this, the Aluula bladder technology brings additional weight savings and performance gains: Aluula film weighs in at only 42gsm, compared to PU films that are traditionally in the 100gsm range. Inflated to a standard pressure of 8psi, the Aluula air frame is 50% stiffer than current Dacron/PU bladder air frames, with 20x more resilience to tearing against standard Dacron, and yet half the weight. The resulting stiffness combined with the extreme light weight delivered by Aluula transforms inflatable kites into precision control wings unlike anything we have experienced during our 20 years of kite design.<br /> <br /> With no need to reduce struts, a 3-strut Aluula frame kite becomes lighter than leading no-strut kites, and, with flex designed into the air frame, these ultra light 3-strut kites perform through the entire wind range, delivering new levels of performance for jumping, drifting, turning, and water relaunch. Aluula is so much more than light wind performance! The low stretch, quick flex properties of the Aluula Air Frame resits distortion signifcantly more than traditional Dacron air frames in over powered situations, delivering improved control when reaching the top end of the wind range.
