Skinny Boy
Kite Sizes: 6/8/9/12
If an all-out wave riding session is what you’re going for, a wave-dedicated kite is a must. While the 1st generation of the Skinny Boy was a big success among wave riders, it just laid the foundation for the most thrilling wave kite yet.
The 2nd generation Skinny Boy is more direct, more precise and more agile, allowing you to maintain complete control of the kite during turns. The Insta Depower has been improved to enable effortless bottom turns, while the Max Drift feature now provides a great drift not only in classic side-off conditions, but also in on-shore conditions.
With the super quick Skinny Boy you can tackle even the most powerful of waves, with or without straps. The question is – do you have the courage?

Aaaaaah those light wind days. What’s better than going to the beach on a calm day, setting up a towel on the warm sand, getting out your Fat Lady kite and ripping through the air with tremendous power. The 4th generation Fat Lady has even more upwind to help you fly through the air and add new high-level tricks to your collection, courtesy of its extreme quick-turning and responsiveness abilities. The Max Flow quick-inflation system and the Cross-Fiber Ripstop for better durability make sure you can keep your focus on what’s important– going out there and shredding the water with a big smile on your face

Last year the Bronq delivered on our promise of versatility, excitement and luxury wrapped into an exciting package with more than a hint of exclusivity. The 2016 model both continues and develops that theme and when Kiteworld magazine describe your board as “…delicious from rail to rail…” you might understand our excitement to bring you the latest development.
The task was set to both enhance the low end and improve the upwind abilities without effecting the speed, control and plushness the Bronq has become known for and by all accounts we’ve exceeded that goal. Faster with more grip and controllable yet still hard carving we’ve set, once again, a new benchmark in chop handling and freeride performance.
Heritage is the inheritance of physical characteristics and that’s exactly the board we’re offering you for 2016 – combining the best features of the past with the lessons learnt from another year of constant R and D. A convergence of designer ideology and manufacturing excellence we’re confident that this board is outstanding in all respects but talk is cheap, go test one yourself – just don’t expect to be happy with your current ride afterwards.

The immensely popular Trigger has been widely acclaimed for almost a decade, and rightly so. With massive hang time, remarkable agility and pinpoint responsiveness, the Trigger goes far and beyond what you might expect from your average all-around kite. As if it wasn’t enough, this year we made the Trigger even more exciting by moving it closer to the window’s edge, meaning you can jump higher than ever, loop, spin, grab and still enjoy maximum stability while doing it. Don’t just go for your usual tricks, though. Our all new double-strength cross-fiber canopy encourages you to conquer those elusive high-complexity tricks without worrying about the kite wearing out. Whether you just started to ride or you’re a 15-year veteran, the Trigger is the perfect all-around kite to help you push yourself and reach new heights. Literally.
Designer’s notes
How does the new fabric affect the design of the Trigger?
The main difference between the new Cross Fiber Ripstop and the one used in previous generations is the ability to withstand stretching over time. The Cross Fiber fabric stretches about half as much, which allows us to design our kites with much more precision. Since we didn’t need to worry about the kite’s performance deteriorating due to extensive use, we concentrated on making much more radical designs for our kites, Trigger included.
Have you changed your designs since hydrofoiling has begun to pick up?
Definitely. Hydrofoils bring much steeper upwind angles into the game. This is one of the reasons we improved the upwind on the new Trigger, to work together with the angle of the foil instead of setting back the foil’s performance.
What is the difference between the 9th and 8th Gen Trigger?
The 8th Gen Trigger was sitting a bit back in the wind window, making it prone to back stalling. With the 9th Gen Trigger we made sure we improve the position of the kite in the window by meticulously fine tuning the bridles and maximizing the profiles.
The new Trigger is much more forward, providing better upwind, direct jumping and better depower.
