Airush Load Frame:
The Airush Load Frame featuring WebTech has been the key to setting the ultimate benchmark in durability, without compromising on weight.
By expanding our exclusive Load Frame with WebTech throughout the areas normally occupied by Dacron, we are able to minimize or completely remove the heavier fabric and utilize the Ballistic high-modulus polyethylene web fibers instead โ increasing strength and minimizing weight.
ย
High Modulus Yarns:
Central to the concept of the Load Frame are the lightweight Ultra High Modulus yarns, of which each single yarn can carry 40kg. Think of them as a lightweight web with engineered energy absorption under load, similar to a spider web.
These yarns are integrated into the canopy through reinforced taping that allows them to elongate when under extreme load, absorbing most of the shock that traditionally would have run through the canopy. At the same time, they carry the primary load of the canopy, preventing stretch and increasing long-term performance.
ย
Technoforce D2:
This premium fabric is designed with a high-density structure using high tenacity double-coated polyester yarn in a double ripstop configuration. The double coating protects the yarn as much as possible from UV and abrasion damage. This ensures that the canopy remains as crisp and responsive for as long as possible.
This exceptional material is used in conjunction with the Airush Load Frame, resulting in the ultimate combination of durability and performance.
ย
XL Inflate / Deflate Valve:
The XL inflate/deflate valve features an insanely easy and fast way to inflate and deflate your kite.
The large opening creates maximum flow of air and reduces fatigue and stress on your pump.
This in conjunction with the Airush high-velocity pump makes inflating your kite extremely fast to get you on the water as quickly as possible.
ย
Airush Bumpers:
Airush bumpers are found throughout the leading edge of the kites to reduce wear and increase durability on rough surfaces.
These bumpers are key for increasing the lifespan of Airush kites.
ย
Kevlar Reinforcement:
Kevlar, found in bulletproof vests, is found throughout the Airush kites.
These Kevlar reinforcements are only put in the most critical areas to protect from wear and tear while still minimizing weight that affects the kites performance.
ย
SPS and FBI:
The oversized SPS valve (Single Point Inflation System) optimizes inflation and deflation.
The Fast Bladder Inflation (FBI) features increased wall thickness and oversized diameter tubing, thus eliminating tube kink, reducing stress on your pump, and enabling quick and easy inflation.
The SPS cover supports the tubing, further limiting UV damage to the material and preventing over flexing when packing.
ย
Rear Line Adjustment:
The Rear Line Adjustment featured on all Airush kites allows for quick changes in the kites bar pressure and response.
With adjustment towards "High" the kite will have increase bar pressure and decrease turning speed. Moving back towards the rear of the wingtip will decrease bar pressure and increase turning speed.
Smaller kites have 3 Bar Pressure settings, Larger kites only have Medium and Low Bar Pressure options available.
ย
V3.2 ย Bridle System:
The V3.2 bridle system, now 10% shorter, contributes significantly to the turning speed and performance of supported leading edge kites. In addition, the total depower adds immensely to the safety benefits.
The Airush Pulleys are made of tough Zytel material for high strength and resistance to abrasion and impact, the Airush Pulley has the pigtails hole directionally correct to eliminate bridle wear. With a breaking strength of 550 kg, the Airush pulley was designed specifically for use on all Airush kites.
