TURBINE DETAILS
For the larger sizes, the Turbine will continue as the ultimate light-wind kite to get you out and riding in
winds as low as 5knotts. We’ve added a 19 meter to the lineup to give even more low-end range. As you
go down in size and up in wind speed, the Turbine becomes a high-performance freeride kite. Due to its
aspect ratio and forward position in the window, the Turbine’s upwind drive, boostability and lofty hang
time are unrivaled by any other shape. Not designed for entry-level kiters, this is an amped-up platform
tailored for riders who are ready for the next-level of performance.
For foiling, the Turbine is as close to a race kite as you can get in an LEI format. Its shape is designed
for superior speed and efficiency, while its position in the window allows for unbeatable upwind angles.
