with a very high aspect ratio<br />

C-shape that helps create the<br />

perfect de-power rope length.<br />

In fact, the whole power range<br />

of the kite is within 15-20 cms<br />

from the chicken loop, enabling<br />

you to have the perfect power<br />

control without the need of moving<br />

your arms forward. In order<br />

for us to suit specific freestylers<br />

preferences, we added<br />

two adjustment options to the<br />

leading edge so it is possible to<br />

adjust the bar pressure.<br />

Furthermore, when using the<br />

kite fully powered up, you can<br />

easily un-hook and get a very<br />

neutral feel when keeping the<br />

kite in the same spot. The super<br />

squared tip design helps increasing<br />

the turning speed when<br />

needed which creates a very<br />

precise, predictable behavior in<br />

the air. You always know where<br />

the kite is without the need of<br />

high bar pressure.<br />

To finish, each shape of the canopy<br />

has been revised and the<br />

outer struts were moved closer<br />

to the wingtips to improve turning<br />

speed. It is important that<br />

the kites canopy has the correct<br />

amount of tension and the outer<br />

struts support the wingtip<br />

while the sail is subjected to heavy<br />

loads. This kite is capable of<br />

stellar loops and huge pop for<br />

extreme maneuvers performed<br />

while fully powered.<br />

The new short Obsession Pro<br />

V7 bar is 7 cms shorter than our<br />

standard Global bar and is now<br />

48 cms in total width. It comes<br />

equipped with 22 mts flying lines<br />

only.<br />

This is the kite for your serious<br />

freestyle sessions!
