The Union has set itself as the new benchmark for the intermediate to advanced rider looking for all round versatility. It unites the key freestyle characteristics of the Razor with the key characteristics of our industry leading Wave kite and the freeride abilities of the Lithium. For 2017, the updated V3.2 bridle configuration features reduced bridle length without compromising on turning and depower.
The result remains a superbly balanced kite that excels in the broadest range of conditions, responding to your demands no matter what the discipline.

[2017 Airush AP boot]

2017 Airush AP boot

http://vimeo.com/174267090

The AP boot takes the unique demands of wakestyle kiting and combines them with the performance of a dedicated wake boot. Traditional wakeboarding boots are not designed for the relentless use that kiteboarding places on bindings and we have examined every aspect to make some key improvements.
For 2017 increased fiber content in the baseplate and increased thickness of the stiffening bar significantly improves the rider connection and durability. In addition we have developed an external load plate allowing us to have more control in regulating the stiffness of this high performance freestyle binding.

2017 Airush Reefer Boot

The Reefer Boot takes the unique demands of wakestyle kiting and combines them with the performance of a dedicated wake boot. Traditional wake boots are not designed for the relentless use that kiteboarding places on them so we have examined every aspect and made fundamental improvements.

The Reefer Boot features increased padding of the inner and foot bed, along with additional reinforcing in key high wear areas and increased stiffening in the ankle area of the boot. These key upgrades take the performance of what was already the ultimate kite specific binding, to a whole new level.
By introducing the new flex zone, the Reefer Boot’s comfort, support and rigidity is optimized. This flex zone reduces the strain on the binding for improved long term performance.

The Diamond Kite features a refined profile and balanced configuration that appeals to a broad range of users – from performance freestylers to wave riders – while still being stable and user friendly enough for intermediate riders.

The unique shape is light on the bar with a short bar throw, so that even the lightest of riders can easily get the kite to the edge of the window in stronger conditions. For 2017 the updated V3.2 bridle configuration features reduced bridle length without compromising on turning and depower.

The Diamond Series kite features Technoforce D2 by Teijin in conjunction with the Dyneema load frame, giving any female rider an insanely durable kite that will last them several seasons.

The unique design of the Airush Wave has been engineered specifically for the precise demands of the true wave enthusiast. The Wave flies forward in the window when required (keeping the rider deep in the pocket), steers immediately no matter where it is in the window, and sits back and drifts in the turns when more stability is required.

Refinements in the chord length, wingtips and canopy layout make for a smooth power delivery and fluid steering which is consistent across the range. For 2017, the updated V3.2 bridle configuration features has reduced bridle length without compromising on turning and depower.

The next generation Dyneema Load Frame takes the biggest innovation in kite construction to a whole new level. This, combined with the Technoforce D2 by Teijin, provides the ultimate mix of durability and lightweight performance. For wave performance, this optimized weight is essential for improved drift stability, while the load frame make all the difference when additional durability is required.

The Wave responds perfectly to rider input and allows you to get into the perfect position on the wave no matter what the wind conditions, taking your riding into a new realm…

Utilizing the same shape as the groundbreaking Livewire Team, the Reefer Series introduces a heavy-duty sintered base and bombproof layup to create a board which is ideal for sliders, park riding and for general abuse.

The Livewire Reefer receives a full makeover this year. Increased stiffness in the tips of the board increase the pop and drive, while the dual rocker and deep channel tip make the Livewire Reefer ideal for riders who prefer to ride more powered. This response is focused on the perfect &ldquo;load and pop&rdquo; optimized by the tri-axial Glass layup and Carbon Torsion Control. The 3D re-enforced tips allow the new Livewire to hold its rocker while enhancing its durability with the increased force these boards are having to withstand when riding with boots and on obstacles.

The stiffest layup in the Airush board range, the Livewire Reefer is ideal for huge powered moves and, combined with the higher rocker, it is the ride of choice for Alex Pastor in any park style session.

Niet alle Airush Kites hebben 3 struts. De Airush Razor is een Freestyle/wakestyle full C-Shape kite met 5 struts en heeft ook het nieuwe dyneema load frame.  De feedback van onze teamriders zijn super positief en merken zeker verschil van het nieuwe load frame. Mocht je het zelf eens willen aanvoelen, kun je altijd bij een van onze testdagen een kite komen uit proberen.

De Airush 2015 modellen Lithium en Varial X hebben een poly load frame, in een volledig kruis patroon frame gemaakt van polyester. De 2015 Team serie kites hebben een volledig kruis patroon van Aramid load frame. Het verschil met het dyneema load frame is dat er meer gekeken is waar de exacte druk in de kite komt. Het Next Generation Load frame is zo ontwikkeld, dat de druk op het doek direct verspreid wordt, op deze manier behoud de kite langer zijn response, duurzaamheid en geeft het de kite een solide feel.

Kijkend naar de kracht om gewicht ratio is het nieuwe Dyneema load frame is 40% hoger dan het Aramid load frame. Dit zorgt er voor dat de kite langer zijn vorm behoudt, hierdoor langer perfect zal blijven functioneren.

Fluid kites maakt gebruik van een Dacron frame (F-Tech). Airush maakt gebruik van een dyneema frame. Airush heeft onderzoek gedaan naar de druk in de kite en heeft hier het Load Frame op aangepast qua design, om zo de punten waar de kite de meeste power krijgt extra te versterken en beter de druk in de kite te verdelen. Het frame zorgt niet alleen voor een duurzamere kite die zijn performance langer behoudt, maar maakt de kite ook nog eens stabieler en directer.

Airush komt dit jaar met het Next Generation Load Frame, een unieke constructie van ultra lichtgewicht Dyneema die het doek van de kite versterkt op de plekken waar de kite vaak tot meer dan 100kg aan druk krijgt te verduren.

Het load frame verandert niet alleen drastisch de duurzaamheid van de kite, het verkleind ook nog eens de rekbaarheid van het doek met maar liefste 30% op de cruciale delen van het doek. Dit zorgt er voor dat de kite langer zijn vorm behoudt, hierdoor langer perfect zal blijven functioneren.

Na vele analyses over de druk verdeling op de kite, heeft Airush het Next Generation Load frame zo ontwikkeld, dat de druk op het doek direct verspreid wordt van het midden naar de wingtips, op deze manier behoud de kite zijn response en duurzaamheid.

Naast dat Airush het premium Techno force D2 doek van Teijin gebruikt, is Airush met dit load frame het eerste merk wereldwijd die een oplossing tegen het diagonaal rekbaarheid van het double ripstop doek daadwerkelijk verkleind.

THE ONLY KITE ON THE MARKET THAT DOES NOT RELY ON ITS MOST FRAGILE PART FOR DURABILITY.
