Relaunch Assist

Overview

It has a much flatter span than the C-kites and this will improve the kite in terms of raw power, efficiency, wind range, turning speed, handling, and most importantly de-power….

The flatter Pro Span Extreme arc kites needs less surface area to deliver the same power as a much bigger conventional arc kite.

Less is more?

ADVANTAGES:

* Greater lifting capacity
* More power for it?s size
* Increased efficiency
* Flatter arc

Features:

* Instant relaunch
* Launch easily on water
* Bigger wind range
* Safer

The kite’s bridle makes relaunching off the water easy. When the kite is leading edge down on the water, just pull on either the left or right leader line.

The wing tip will rise off of the surface and allow the rider to position the kite into the side launch position. This is all possible without the use of a 5th line or additional wind tip fittings.
