    Instant drift with a flick of the wrist!

    Powerful, reactive and controllable, the Carve provides instant drift with the flick of your wrist, allowing you to power on and off instantly, stay in the pocket for longer and out of the critical impact zone. Featuring a sensory pivot turn for control, and huge depower range, the Carve gives you the confidence to focus on surfing, in onshore to offshore, and anything in between, while strong surf-freestyle characteristics let you throw down strapless freestyle and perform lofty jumps with ease. 

    TWO-STAGE ARC WITH DIRECT PIVOT STEERING
    The Carve's responsive two-stage arc design enables tighter turns without excessive amounts of power

    NEW EVOLVED DRIFT
    New bridling ensures you’re able to maintain the drift when you're sheeted in, the kite is responsive and goes down the line

    NEW IMPROVED TOP END PERFORMANCE
    Changes to the bridle have improved the top end wind range of the kite

    NEW LOW-DRAG, NO-PULLEY BRIDLE LINES
    The NEW bridling provides an extremely direct feel in both bar pressure and steering initiation, with more intuitive feedback from the bar in both directions so you'll always know where your kite is. 

    NEW LIGHTER SURF-TOUGH CONSTRUCTION
    We've maintained the surf tough construction by replacing the dacron canopy panels with a NEW heavy duty lighter, stronger canopy reinforcement material. The reinforcement protects the lighter inner main canopy body and allows the kite to be more responsive in the steering and depower

    REFINED AERODYNAMIC PROFILE TRANSITION PANELS
    The profile transition panels ensure that as the leading edge expands, tension from the elongation doesn't migrate into the canopy and a precise lateral profile shape is maintained as close to the leading edge as possible.

    FAST-LAUNCHING SWEPT LEADING EDGE DESIGN
    Allows more area in the centre of the kite for efficiency and makes the kite easy to roll off the water during critical relaunch in the surf. The Carve is not swept in the trailing edge like a bow kite, but it has a lot of curvature when viewed from the side, and the wingtips are not particularly wide. This puts a lot of the usable area in the center of the kite, rather than in the wing tip

    HIGH BUOYANCY LEADING EDGE DIAMETER
    For a rigid, stable kite frame which requires less inflation pressure. The high volume of air in the leading edge ensures the kite stays on top of the white water, and is not easily crushed by the waves. The larger leading edge diameter intentionally produces more drag and helps the kite sit deeper in the pocket. It also allows us to thin out the actual profile in the canopy itself

    DURALITE SEAM PROTECTION
    Lightweight reinforcement to protect from chafing and abrasion along the struts to the leading edge

    PERSONALISED PERFORMANCE TUNING OPTIONS
    Bar pressure and steering impulse can be adjusted on the wing tip, allowing you to fine tune the kite's characteristics to your personal preference

    PREMIUM TEIJIN D2 TECHNO FORCE CANOPY
    D2 Ripstop Fabric by Teijin. Premium high-density canopy material made in Japan, using high tenacity polyester yarn for lightness, high tearing strength and endurance. Teijin Techno Force has the highest strength to weight ratio and longest durability in the industry

    KEVLAR REINFORCED STRUT SYSTEM WITH BRIDLE DEFLECTORS
    For the most accurate and durable connection between the strut and the leading edge. Bridle deflectors on the leading edge prevent the control lines catching on the struts

    HYPERFLOW RAPID SINGLE-POINT INFLATION
    High volume single point inflation system with larger diameter hose for rapid inflation and deflation. Bayonet style main inflation valve compatible with most pumps. No adapter needed

    TWO-STAGE ARC WITH DIRECT PIVOT STEERING
    The Carve's responsive two-stage arc design enables tighter turns without excessive amounts of power

    NEW EVOLVED DRIFT
    The Carve is a statically balanced, stable kite that resists nose diving. Down the line drift is most important when the wind’s onshore. The more offshore it gets, the more important it is for the kite to fly forward

    NEW IMPROVED TOP END PERFORMANCE
    Changes to the bridle have improved the top end wind range of the kite. It maintains linear power delivery and you can still ride it a size smaller, but we've traded a little from the bottom end for a considerable amount more top end depower.
