Ride like never before

With the Swell we wanted to make a wave and freeride kite that excels in all conditions, good or bad. The result is more than a wave specific kite with great low end power and great upwind drive. Its well-balanced 3 strut design and responsive handling also makes it an extremely fun freeride option, more than capable to handle kiteloops, big boosts and smooth landings.
By combining great stability with fast turning and smooth drift, the Swell delivers all the characteristics you need to focus on carving up the face and slashing the lip.
The Swell´s specially designed shape allows it to be flown at a higher angle of attack (powered up), and gives it superb low end power and an incredible high end range. By using a 3 point cascading bridle with a single low friction ring the Swell offers the best of two worlds; quick turning and a huge depower range.

Pity... I'd like to see the kite... unfortunately, they seem to sell waves, because this is what they show in the vid...

This is my video of the "Swell v2" in waves slashing and carving all kinds of different conditions. Trying to give an idea of how the kite behaves.

A little twin tip action thrown in at the end... just for good measure. Its performance in the waves shouldn't detract from the fact that it is a great free ride option too.

Hope you enjoy.

My Swells have proven to be the best kites in my quiver! Insane in the waves, loop like machines and have the boosting capabilities of my Switchblades. Really fun - fast - playful kites :D :D :D
