Technology
Swept Compact C
The swept compact C-shape blends the pop and lift of a C-kite with the power, control, and turning of a swept leading edge kite. In addition, it provides ideal relaunch capabilities.
Solid Frame Construction
Every strut is attached to a frame of heavy duty Dacron that is then sewn onto the canopy for unmatched resistance to wear and heavy loads.
HD Radial Segmented Arc
The HD Radial Segmented shape uses twice the amount of short linear segments to accurately form the kite’s arc, resulting in increased arc definition and a more solid kite.
Evolutive Profile
The profile’s depth and shape evolves along the airfoil, helping create a fast flying, stable kite with less back stalling. The center sections generate power thanks to a deeper profile, while the flatter profile in the tips minimizes drag and allows faster turning.
Low Drag Wing Tip
This wing tip geometry decreases the overall surface area of the non-lifting portion, greatly reducing drag. The more efficient the lift/drag ratio becomes, the faster the wing tip can move through the air. This allows the kite to be both quicker and more responsive through turns.
Octopus Inflation System
This proven, quick, and easy single-point inflation system creates uniform pressure in the struts and leading edge. Naish’s exclusive one-way internal valve ensures that the pressure within the struts does not change during turns.
Kite Construction
Easy Access Zipper Placement
Extremely easy access to the internal valve when replacing bladders.
Molded Te Reinforcement
Optimal trailing edge protection with a molded reinforcement at the end of each strut.
Molded Bumpers
Large thermo-molded bumpers wrap around the leading edge, which provide seam protection when landing and launching the kite.
Aramid Patches
Patches along LE segments to protect the seams.
2-Piece Leading Edge
This construction provides better twist control of the leading edge, and improves turning performance.
Vertical Seam Struts
A reduction in the number of pieces used in the struts means more precision in defining the canopy profile. The seams are also reinforced with an extra layer of webbing, and double zigzag stitches to avoid breakage.
High Flow Valve
One-way valve for reduced frictional force, easy inflation and immediate deflation.
