2013 Cabrinha Drifter Surf Kite FloridaKiteboarding 2012-08-01 | 2013 Cabrinha Drifter Surf Kite - http://www.kiteboardingchannel.info - For more 2013 Cabrinha Product Videos - http://bit.ly/2013Cabrinha - In 2012 the Drifter surf kite was a breakaway success. Surfers worldwide have now come to know the benefits of "drift stability". Drift stability, one of the Drifter's prominent features, is the kites ability to stay afloat and drift downwind when the kite is depowered. This so called slack line drift function allows the rider to power into the wave, then shut the kite power down and surf as if the kite was not even there. When the rider needs to power back up the kite is quick to re- engage and power the rider to the next section. The Drifter's hybrid design is slightly more upright and compact in shape. This makes the Drifter turn on a dime, and power and depower on command. When the wind conditions are marginal and you need to steer the kite a lot, the Drifter will surgically place the kite where you need it exactly when you need it.Features include - - Surf specific 3 strut design- Excellent slack line drift- High depower- Direct and responsive steering- Simplified bridle- Light weight- Enhanced durability- Quicklink IDS equipped- Sprint5.5, 7, 9, 11, 13m Sizes availablehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wqAQNY51zdo

2013 North Vegas Kite FloridaKiteboarding 2012-09-03 | 2013 North Vegas Kite - http://www.kiteboardingchannel.info - For more 2013 North Kiteboarding Videos - http://bit.ly/2013North - From the 2013 North Vegas product page - The 2013 North Vegas Kite is our definitive freestyle kite.Our top freestyle riders use it as a devastating weapon of choice; world class athletes like Tom, Thomas, Mario, Cesar, Reno and Stefan have the Vegas as their go-to kite for all conditions. The Vegas has a long heritage with North Kiteboarding and we have been constantly developing it to create the ultimate freestyle kite. Whilst the Vegas is a freestyle machine, we wanted it to be a little more than that. By tuning the kite you can create a few different set ups and allow it to suit different riding styles. On the frontlines are two settings; freestyle gives the rider more depower, more lift, precision kiteloops and very reactive steering. The wakestyle setting gives the rider more pop when unhooked, a longer "power delay" to allow easier handle passes and slightly less reactive steering so you can concentrate on the rails and kickers. The rear lines can be tuned to increase or decrease the turning speed of the kite to suit almost any rider.Compared to last years model, we have tuned quite a lot on the 2013 Vegas, the quarter strut was moved further out towards the wingtip to improve the low-end range of the kite. This also helped us to create a more rigid tip to the kite, the concentration of struts in the tip area helps make the kite very responsive and direct in terms of bar feeling. We also made the wingtips wider to improve steering and responsiveness. Hook yourself into the 2013 Vegas and prepare to be blown away by the performance of this freestyle and wakestyle machine!http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L4Rs0mop_eo

Its exceptionally light weight is primarily the result of removing the center strut. In doing this, the center section of the canopy performs like a spinnaker and generates incredible power in light wind.The Fly uses the Park's proven easy-handling design, which gives it superior turning ability, but it incorporates more overall sweep, which helps the Fly relaunch in marginal wind conditions.Design Characteristics:- The power of an 18 with the turning of a 12- Exceptionally lightweight- Based on the proven Park platform- Two strut design- Amazing low-end- Superior water relaunch in light winds- Includes 10m extension linesMusic by Illy - It Can WaitEdit - Ewan JaspanFilming - Katie Potterhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=llBhwMbQN1Q

Its improved light wind performance can be attributed in part to its new lighter weight design. We've reduced the number of struts and have distributed the Dacron sparingly and more efficiently. Thus earning its new designation as the Crossbow LW (Light Weight). The Crossbow's bow kite design is another factor in providing a wide wind range and light wind performance. The bow kite design allows us to produce a high aspect kite with a flatter arc which delivers more power per square meter than a non bow kite. This power is easily controlled by our trademark Depower on Demand. this allows the rider to precisely control the power of the kite. Whether you are serious about racing or serious about having as much fun as possible in extremely light winds, the Crossbow LW delivers.Features include - - Light Weight 5 strut design- Amazing lift and hangtime- Excellent upwind ability- Largest wind range- Variable tuning options- Quicklink IDS equipped- Sprint9, 11, 13, 16, 18m Sizes availablehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZR_fQBO8zog

The force needed to release the QR is minimal in relation to the load. Even with 400 kilograms of load, the release force remains under ten dekanewtons (similar to kilograms). The QR design is optimized to be resistant against snow, sand, dirt and small rocks, as much as possible. But that is still not all. We focused on the smallest of details. There is no metal part at the end of the loop that can become tangled behind the harness hook. The system is intuitive and can be reset easily and quickly. In addition, we made sure that you can release dependably, even when wearing thick gloves. Disruptive or dangerous accidental releases are practically eliminated. A heavy component? Hardly. The Infinity 2.0 QR weighs only 157 grams and offers the most compact construction of all chicken loops with a comparable range of functions. On the Infinity 2.0 Control Bar,The all new Chickenstick we replace the Chickendick with another of our innovations: the Chickenstick. While most Chickendicks get stiff in low temperatures and barely work, the Chickenstick is stiff from the start and can be attached to the harness hook quickly and easily with the help of an elastic connection. Broken Chickendicks or accidental releasing is basically eliminated with this Chickenstick. Only a few bars can completely Untwisting the Infinity-Bar 2.0 untwist, our first Infinity bar could do it. But the Infinity 2.0 Control Bar can do it so much better. A special construction allows the Infinity 2.0 QR to swivel even more smoothly than ever, without being susceptible to rusting or blocking when exposed to sand, dirt, ice or salt. The new Double V shaped Eyelet leads the depower lines vertically through the bar. This improves comfort and handling when holding the bar for one-handed flying and unhooked tricks. We thought of more, too. The depowerloop 'locks' when unhooking and doesn't dangle around. For real wake-style purists, we also have the option to make the depowerloop bigger. And so that no wish remains unfulfilled, each Infinity 2.0 Control Bar has the option to use a "Releasable Suicide HP-Mode". You get the accessories for this delivered with the bar free of charge. So, endless rotations, new quickrelease, chicken stick, options for customization for unhooked riding and still the Infinity 2.0 Control Bar has more tricks up its sleeve. This is our first bar with a quickly adjustable stopperball, which we recommend, above all, for advanced riders and constant winds. This is a luxury that we no longer want to go without. If you are surprised by a gust, you can still push the stopper up, together with the bar. Still not enough features? You can adjust the bar width on the winders at any time. Finally we also slightly revised our trimmer again. It's now more precise and more user-friendly. The control bar remains clean and clearly laid out, despite a multitude of functions. Functionality and simplicity: have you seen a control bar that combines this better? For more info: http://bit.ly/FlysurferInfinity2

2012 SHINN SuperShinn Kiteboard FloridaKiteboarding 2011-08-15 | SHARE THIS VIDEO - http://bit.ly/2012SuperSHINN - (cont.) For more information - http://bit.ly/SuperSHINN - Tired of having to choose between Performance and Comfort? Us too, it's time for something new, a board that breaks the rules and opens the doors too riders to push themselves and their limits. We opened our mind to new possibilities and now it's your turn. The Supershinn was not conceived as a competition kiteboard but it's certainly capable of competing at the highest levels. No board can offer so much performance in such an accessible package. We've combined the highly developed freestyle outline, tweaked the successful Constant Curve rocker line first seen on the Monk, incorporated the incredibly popular Squoval mould and added into the mix our new Hydro-Flo tail conduits. Were we successful? Judge for yourself but we seriously advise NOT buying another kiteboard before you try it! Vertical Strake - The 90 degree strake at the edge of the conduit re-directs water flow over the entire surface of the fin, enhancing the performance of the profile and allowing the use of smaller fins without the associated loss of grip and drive. Variable Rocker - The conduit INCREASE the rocker at the rail of the board whilst maintaining our incredibly successful Constant Curve through the central area. The effect? Less rail or fin catching at speed and a more aggressive carve into your POP. Improved Flex Control - It's no secret, softer tips add control to the board whilst stiffer ones improve POP...until now! Through endless tests and experiments, we've used the conduits to re-define tail flex and provide control AND POP - the best of BOTH worlds! CONSTANT CURVE ROCKER - We bend the rules So, how does it work and why do you need it? Reason 1 - Conventional rockers have multiple radiuses however our new design maintains a constant curve from tip to tail. As power increases and you load the rail you naturally transfer more weight to your back foot, the cc rocker contact with the water remains constant (unlike multiple radius versions) no matter how your balance is distributed between your feet, meaning no trim adjustment and no increase in leg pressure is needed -- constant grip and constant power in all conditions. Reason 2 - The progressive concave flattens the centre of the board to enhance glide and efficiency when riding flatter in less powered conditions but leaves the rocker continuous at the rail where it's needed for powered riding. Reason 3 - Massively increasing the lift in the extremes of the board has the added bonus of eliminating tip strike when riding in chop and that means no spray in the riders eyes -- ever.

2012 North Kiteboarding Kitesurfing Rebel Kite FloridaKiteboarding 2011-08-03 | FOR MORE NORTH VIDEOS - http://bit.ly/NORTH1 - SHARE THIS VIDEO - http://bit.ly/2012NORTH-Rebel - The 2012 Rebel remains North's flagship kite, combining all the ingredients you need to cover a huge wind-range, rip apart any size surf, boost huge airs and ride comfortably in nearly all conditions. It is quite simply our best interpretation of what a modern free-ride/wave kite should be and it's really no mystery why the Rebel is THE most sold kite ever. The 2012 Rebel remains a loaded 5th line kite, offering its most acclaimed performance attributes like a short bar stroke, crisp, direct feeling, rock solid stability in all conditions, and it's unique ability to steer while de-powered. The new square wingtip design maximizes the effective tip area, makes the tips less prone to distortion and fluttering while steering and gives the Rebel its new stylish and modern appeal. Super clean tip panels account for greatly improved, ultra smooth turning and easy handling that remains smooth even in over-powered conditions. Size-specific tuning ensures that the big sizes feel crisp and lively and the small sizes feel forgiving even in blistering wind. The Rebel also features a simple back-line adjustment to tune it for greater or lesser bar pressure to suit your desired feel. As with all North kites, the 2012 Rebel is built to last utilizing our proven construction methods and the highest quality materials like our exclusive Teijin D2 canopy fabric. -Freeride/wave -Loaded 5th Line -New square tips -Tunable bar pressure -Rock solid stability

The tri-finned thruster is a well rounded surfboard which is comfortable in any type of surf. It can be ridden in side-shore to on-shore conditions with the same level of performance. The Trigger likes to be ridden with minimal input from the kite allowing you to ride with a slightly bigger board with a smaller kite. This brings the experience as close as it gets to surfing without a kite. Like all of our surfboards the Trigger can be ridden with or without straps. The Trigger utilizes our exclusive cork sandwich layup. This eco friendly construction provides a light weight, durable alternative to PVC reinforcement while delivering a softer, flex.

The Caliber XO's design is driven by kiteboarding's international icon Susi Mai. The Caliber XO is not just a pretty looking version of the men's line (even though it is pretty), but rather a finely tuned board that caters to the wants and needs of the female rider. We've dialed the size, flex and base shape to make this board the performance choice for girls in Freestyle and Freeriding. SIZES(cm) - 127 x 38 130 x 39 133 x 40

With its lower rocker line the Caliber planes quickly and is able to fly upwind. A huge asset when riding in less than favorable wind conditions as well as for staying in the defined competition area. The Caliber's outline and flex pattern give the board incredible pop whether you are riding unhooked or hooked in. The new Caliber has extended the quad concave right through the center of the board to provide increased grip, and to diffuse the impact on the landings. The Caliber is constructed with a Paulownia wood core, ABS side walls and carbon stringers, tip to tail. We've added composite foot patches for a more direct power transmission to the rail.
