Overview //Helium
Lightwind freeride performance
- Maximum stability
- Great low-end power with sheet and go delivery
- Maximum depower and extended range
- Low bar pressure and quick turning
- Lightweight construction
Lightwind days will never be the same again.
The Helium gets you on the water when marginal conditions may otherwise make kiting unlikely. Blasting upwind with controllable power, extended range and low bar pressure make light air kiting effortless and exciting.
The new Helium is a moderately swept high aspect, high projected area wing specifically designed for light air performance. The planform and profiles are carefully sculpted to reduce drag and optimize lift at the low angles of attack encountered in light wind flight where the apparent wind exceeds the true wind. A fixed no-pulley 6-line bridge bridle provides even spanwise Leading Edge support while allowing quick pivotal turning and maximum de-power. Construction is strong yet light in a 3-strut configuration.
Is this kite right for you?
If you live in an area where the winds don’t blow all the time and you can’t drop everything whenever windfinder is looking good. With the Helium anyone can now take advantage of those lightwind days.
