Flexifoil Water Re-Launch Series Storm 3 Traction Kite

This kite is the result of ground breaking aerodynamics, advanced computer modelling and wind tunnel kite analysis. Our young and talented R&D team is 100% obsessed with providing you with the best possible kiteboarding experience. They are assisted by our pro rider team, including Aaron Hadlow and Petra Goeschl, who test the kites under all conditions around the world.

The Storm 3 is designed for the experienced kiteboarder who wants incredible jumping ability but not at the expense of fast turning speed. A light yet very direct feel on the bar enables precision control making it great for wave riding. The fast powerful pro?le gives massive hang time. The Storm 3 is a kite for those who accept no compromise.

• High Aspect Ratio Design:
  Minimises induced drag for high speed and leads to fast turning characteristics
• 7 Struts:
  Extra struts are required to support the higher aspect ratio design. Strut diameter is reduced to decrease weight and parasitic drag
• Segmented Construction:
  Ensures precise aerofoil shape and performance
• Rigid Strut System:
  Creates a rigid frame that enables a positive and direct feel at all times
• Wingtip Battens:
  Allows more responsive turns without a loss in power
• Tip Dump Valve:
  Means quicker pack down by rolling kite from tip to tip
• EVA Bumpers:
  Rugged protection helps prevent sail and LE damage
• Dacron Leading Edge Tube:
  Helps keep strong, rigid frame that aids re-launchability
• 4-3-2-1 Panel Layout:
  Ensures best use of materials in high stress areas
• Dacron Trailing Edge:
  Scalloped dacron improves durability of the TE and moves the kite's centre of gravity rearward to improve stability.
• Reinforcement Junctions:
  Strut/sail attachments are taped to ensure protection and reduced wear and tear
• Foolproof Line Attachments:
  Colour-coded lines and toggles for simplicity
• Bladder Lock:
  Bladder valves have a rim to keep them locked in the correct position; also prevents valves from falling inside the tubes
• 1-Way Valve with Deflators:
  All Strut valves have a 1 way valve to make inflation easy. A small deflator accompanies the lock to enable fast derig
• Turning Speed Adjusters:
  Tune your kite using one of three different turn speed settings
• Power Adjusters:
  2 power settings enable the kite to be trimmed to your preference or the prevailing condition
• LE - Sail Attachment:
  Hard wearing taped dacron strip sewn between the sail and LE tube provides added scuff resistance to ensure maximum kite longevity
• Storm Bar:
  The Storm 3 bar is a second generation kitesurf control bar based on the original leashless safety system concept developed for the Storm 2. This leashless safety system is designed for safe, tangle-free, uninhibited riding. Perfect for free riding. Designed using the latest ergonomic data to ensure comfort and safety for all riders.
