HIGH PERFORMANCE/BIG AIR KITELOOP/FREESTYLE.
6m / 7m / 8m / 9m / 10m / 11m / 12m
The Nuke shape is a combination of Delta shape in the center of the kite and wingtips similar to a C-shaped kite. The center has an open arc, wide and deep center section for power generation, hangtime and lift. The wingtips are more closed and almost in a straight line and squared off like on a C kite. This creates a very fast responding kite with quick pivotal turning ideal for kiteloops, double loops, S-loops and other new school big air trick.
Reduces the weight of the kite and improves performance. Due to the compact shape of the kite, and high quality of materials, the kite has optimal strength to weight ratio and canopy tension with three struts only.
The Nuke kite offers two riding modes: Allround and Nuking. The selection is made on one of the bridle line connection to the leading edge of the kite. There are two connection points to switch between these riding modes. From the factory, the Nuke kite is set to the Allround mode, which is on the longer 20cm pigtail. In this mode, the Nuke kite turns smoother, has easy depower control, better hang time and smooth megaloops. The Allround mode is better suited for intermediate riders, as it is more forgiving and suggested for lighter wind conditions. We also recommend this mode for old school freestyle, freeride and waves.
The Nuking mode is for strong wind conditions and provides more stability, great pop, lighter bar pressure and perfect slack control. The kite is more powerful in megaloops and we suggest this mode for the best new school big air experience. To select the Nuking mode, simply disconnect the bridle line from the 20cm pigtail and connect it to the 10cm pigtail hanging from the leading edge of the kite.
In both modes the Nuke kite works great for kiteloops. It is up to the rider which mode he or she prefers more.
