Dedicated to advanced kitefoiling, we proudly present the SUPERSONIC. Leveraging the expertise behind our Formula Race kites, this ultra-light, high-performance marvel is designed specifically for long distance sessions. In marginal winds, the SUPERSONIC delivers exceptional speed, stability, and control, allowing you to push for hours! Take your foiling sessions to new heights with a design crafted for your passion. Hydro-Tech ConstructionThe SUPERSONIC’s material mix is designed to enhance kite performance in various conditions. The Porcher skytex 32 is used along the kites leading edge. It effectively absorbs moisture, particularly useful in humid climates, preventing water drop formation along the leading edge for uninterrupted airflow. All sizes 12, 15, 19 and 22 are made of skytex 32 leading edges and 10D sailcloth. Air intake lineLines have been stretched spanwise across all air inlets to ensure optimal airflow to the leading edge. The air inlet lines hold the rigid foils on the nose in position and prevent the inlets from deforming. The kite fills quickly with air. You get control over the entire wingspan sooner when launching the foil kite. The kite also flies further to the edge of the wind window when overpowered; the leading edge dents later, and the depower works more efficiently. High-tensile strength bridle line configurationThe bridle line configuration is crucial in managing stability, performance, and ease of control. A well-designed bridle system balances the forces exerted on the structure and precisely controls its behavior. The SUPERSONIC uses Aramid Bridle lines at all levels and at the brake line. The lines are coated with a UV-resistant layer to prevent degradation due to UV exposure. This protective coating extends the lines’ lifespan and reduces wear and tear from sun exposure. These materials ensure that the lines maintain their length and strength over time, reducing the need for frequent adjustments or replacements. CCB - Chord Cut BillowThe Chord Cut Billow – called CCB for short – is an advanced aerodynamic feature designed to streamline airflow over the leading edge of our foil kites. It consists of a specialized precision cut that modifies the leading edge profile to facilitate smoother airflow. These cuts, known as “billows”, are strategically positioned to guide the airflow in a manner that reduces turbulence and mitigates the effects of surface irregularities. This ensures minimized drag, improved turning, and decreased back stall. Performance TunerThe performance tuner is a knot ladder integrated into the C-pulley line to modify the kite’s camber. Moving the Z-main line affects the bar forces and the performance of the kite. Shortening increases low-end power and steering/holding forces. Lengthening does the opposite, decreasing brake line tension and steering/holding power. Adjusting brake line settings for power delivery and depower allows you to optimize and unlock the kite’s maximum potential based on wind conditions and personal preferences. Changes should be made symmetrically. Optimized CamberOur knowledge from the Olympic Formula Kite Class is directly implemented in our freeride designs. The profile’s camber, or curvature, is refined to balance lift, drag, and control. The reflex profile sections are essential for controlling and depowering a foil kite and keeping it stable at a low attack angle and full acceleration. The counter-arching pushes the trailing edge down and prevents a front stall. We ensure a smooth and predictable performance even at high speeds. SUPERSONIC – Loyal to the FoilThe SUPERSONIC isn’t just a kite – it’s our commitment to the kite foiling community! Its ultra-light construction is meticulously tuned for performance, saving every gram to excel in the lightest winds. Designed for those who demand the best, the SUPERSONIC thrives where other kites falter, unlocking unparalleled speed, stability, and control in marginal conditions.This kite isn’t just built for hydrofoiling – it’s loyal to the foil. Its intuitive handling and crisp feedback empower you to maneuver with confidence, whether you’re chasing top speeds or cutting the waters along the coastline. Perfect for advanced riders and enthusiasts looking to push their limits, the SUPERSONIC ensures that every session is an adventure. At its heart, the SUPERSONIC embodies our dedication to lightweight performance, thoughtful construction, and sustainable design. Take your foiling sessions to new heights with a design crafted for your passion.
