KAHOONA V2


 

Kahoona V2

The newly improved Kahoona blends exceptional performance and handling with advanced safety features that make it the perfect kite for advancing your riding level, regardless of your preferred riding style.

Experienced freestyle riders who love the Kahoona's astonishing hangtime and great low end power will be blown away by the improved high wind ability and enhanced stability. Revisions to the wingtip design and canopy geometry along with the introduction of a new 5.5m size help make it the perfect freestyle kite.

In the waves, responsive unhooked handling, great downwind drift, and auto-relaunch all combine to make the Kahoona the most evolved big-wave surf kite we’ve ever made. It's the perfect partner to our new Spacekraft and Shortstick surfboards.

For improvers, the Kahoona provides a supremely stable platform for progression, helping any rider make the most of their water time. Revised 2010 design and construction with flat-pack LE seams, hidden bridle patches, 3D Kevlar airframe, and Surf-tough construction make the new Kahoona the best all round Delta kite available.

The Kahoona will help you progress faster than you thought was possible with it’s unbelievable boost, hangtime, stability, auto-relaunch and handling characteristics. It comes loaded with performance and ease-of-use features that are out of this world - at a surprisingly down to earth price.

Available sizes: 5.5, 7.5, 9.5, 11.5 and 13.5m
 
Delta Canopy:

The Delta canopy design of the Kahoona allows for a unique combination of exceptional low end power, high depower and maximum stability. The Kahoona blends favorable traits from both C-kites and SLE kites to provide an exceptional riding experience for kitesurfers of all skill levels.

Quad-Strut Design:

The leading edge shape and highly swept back wingtips of the Kahoona allowed the R&D team to remove the centre strut from the airframe: with one less strut in the air the Kahoona is able to turn faster, with less drag and fly in less wind than would be possible with a 5 strut layout.

Mini VP2 Bridle:

A short leading edge bridle provides exceptional shape support and effective distribution of canopy loads across the entire kite: the Kahoona has stability that will encourage you to push your limits. VP2's innovative pivoting design provides maximum depower from minimum bar travel making kite control simpler than ever.

3D KEVLAR AIRFRAME:

Kevlar reinforced airframe construction for maximum precision, durability and minimum weight.All leading edge and strut joints on your kite are laser cut, 3D shaped and Kevlar tape reinforced. Sure it takes a little longer and costs a little more to build kites this way, but there is no better way to connect the leading edge to the struts

FLAT-PACK LE BARREL SEAMS:

The new Flat Pack LE barrel seams contribute to the strongest LE construction we've ever made. Removing the overlap between segments has created a stronger and lighter LE construction with enhanced stiffness and torsion load handling for even greater responsiveness and durability.

LOAD-FLEX SEAM:

The tip-to-tip leading edge seam on all of our kites is triple stitched with a full length webbing tape closure on the outside. The inside is fully taped with a full length mark cloth strip for maximum strength with all internal seams being smooth-taped to protect the bladders from any ridges of stitching. The Load Flex seam design provides additional support to the leading edge helping to provide maximum strength and stability to your kite; it is one of the reasons why Best kites are famed for their legendary flying stability.
