Description

The XR8 is the ultimate kite when it comes to high jumps and delivering unparalleled performance. This exceptional kite has an ultra-rigid frame with 5 struts in a Deltabow shape, allowing for breathtaking jumps and the longest hangtime. With the XR8 you experience unprecedented sailing comfort and control thanks to the effortless and forgiving control of the kite.

The XR8 guarantees explosive jumping power and superior upwind performance. The use of the stiffer ExoTex 2 material refines the entire frame of the kite and allows smaller leading edge and strut diameters, which makes the kite lighter and more agile.

When we say you'll reach new heights, we really mean it – the XR8 will take you to extraordinary heights of kitesurfing. You will find that loops are more efficient with an earlier and smoother catch. The CoreTex 2 canopy is highly durable and extremely stretchy, giving the kite unparalleled flight stability, power and control.

Enjoy the thrill of big jumps with the new XR8!
