116 NEW BRANDS Eleveight Kites, the new international brand that will make kiters fly!
most importantly allows to manage gusts very well. Available sizes 4, 6, 8, 10 e 12m, in four colours. Among the many features of this kite there are the immediate relaunch from the water, a great depower, a moderate rotation speed, reinforcements over the leading edge and on critical points and a very high flying stability. A very intuitive and easy kite that can easily be used by a beginner but which will entertain even the more experienced ones. We then have the RS (Freeride Series) a kite with a delta hybrid profile, 3 struts, double ripstop, available in sizes 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, 14 and 17, produced in four colours. Among the features of the RS, the good rotation speed and excellent upwind performance, a mid-high aspect ratio makes it a kite for big jumps and hang time. The 14 and 17 sizes also have 3m size extensions. In the Elev8 catalogue we then find the FS (Freestyle Series), our main model, personally is the kite that I use the most, a 5 struts Open C made with D2 fabric and produced in sizes 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, 14 and 16 in three colours. It's the kite for Freestyle and wakestyle, with great performances also for kiteloop lovers, thanks to its fast and powerful rotation, a good upwind performance and also great stability and last but not least a generous slack, make the FS my favourite kite of all models. The last but not least model is the WS (Wave Series), a 3 struts Open C, D2 fabric, produced in sizes 5, 7, 9, 11 and for next year we will increase the size range following the many requests for this model which has been the most sold one of the series. Three colours in the catalogue. Fast and straightforward in the rotation, stable thanks to its excellent drift in downwind, light pressure on the bar for an easy one-hand control, an excellent hang time to facilitate the freestyle strapless. These are the numerous features that make the WS THE wave kite. This was the "Elev8 production" for kites, whereas the control bar comes only in one model in 2 sizes for all kites, with 22-meter lines and a real innovation in the chicken loop: the exclusive "Quick-Matic" system which allows to re-hook the quick release without having to move the cuff up but simply pushing it in the chicken loop system. A mobile clam cleat allows to adjust the depower length whereas it is possible to trim both the front and back lines without having to get to the kite. The grip is excellent. What about the boards? Currently there are two bidirectional boards: the PROCESS, freeride board in three sizes (135, 139 and 144) and the IGNITION, light wind board suitable also to move first steps with departures thanks to its centimetres generosity (150). The wood core construction for both of them denotes lightness and a very nice appearance, but they are also resistant thanks to the carbon inserts. Two wave models too, the ES- CAPE and the CURL. The first with the new shape no-nose, in size 4'11 x 17 ½ x 2 - 20 Ltr / 5'4 x 18 ½ x 23 /16 - 25.5 Ltr. The second one is a modern
