Airush Session - 8

Name: Airush Session - 8
Brand: Airush

Versatile all-round performance kite for waves & freeride from Airush New kite from this year is the Airush Session. Airush Session is the improved successor of the old Airush Wave. Airush Session is intended for freeride and wave surfing. As a wave surfer, you will love the Session for its good operation, fast steering and "power on demand". The new Airush Session is also great for the kitesurfer who surfs a twintip and wants a user-friendly kite to start with. This is because the new Airush Session has a good amount of depower, and hangs stably in the air. In addition, the Session is easy to relaunch. This is useful for the wave surfer, but also the new kite surfer when you steer your kite in the water by accident. What we like about Airush Session: ️ Airush Session is super stable in the sky and makes it easy to control for the beginner or in very bumpy weather conditions. ️ The option to switch between pulley and pulley-less bridless ️ Airush Session has a medium bar pressure, which gives a very direct control. In addition, the kite has lots of depower, which gives the kite a large windrange! ️ Easy to relaunch, making it easy for the beginner to get started after a crash. Or for the wave surfer who quickly needs to get the kite in the sky before the next set of waves arrives. ️ That you can go from surfboard to twintip in the same day and still have a great session. What to be aware of at Airush Session: ️ Twintip surfers over 80-85 kilos probably need more power which is found in the Lithium kit. Airush Session will feel a bit too soft for them. However, if the focus is primarily waves and foil, it is not a problem. Why you want an Airush Session: Airush Session is super fun and versatile kite. If you have both a twintip and a surfboard in your set-up, this kite is perfect. Surf waves and when the wind picks up you can go out and boost some big jumps. All levels of kite surfers will have a great experience with this kite.

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 – increasing strength and minimizing weight. INTEGRATED HIGH MODULUS POLYETHYLENE YARNS Central to the concept of the Load Frame are the lightweight Ultra High Modulus yarns, of which every single yarn can carry 40kg. Think of them as a lightweight web with engineered energy absorption under load, similar to a spider's web. These yarns are integrated into the canopy through reinforced taping that allows them to elongate under extreme load, absorbing most of the shock that would have typically run through the canopy. At the same time, they carry the primary load of the canopy, preventing stretch, and increasing long-term performance. TECHNOFORCE D2 This premium fabric is designed with a high-density structure that uses 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, ensuring that the canopy remains 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. SAFETY TRADE The emergency safety handles are provided on each wingtip. This maximizes the control and security when performing a self-rescue. OPTIONAL FIXED OR PULLEY BRIDLES The Session is supplied with two sets of bridles, which can be interchanged using the same bridle attachment points. For the classic Airush feel of smooth depower and ease of use, the standard pulley bridle is recommended. The Longer bar throw means that you get a controlled longer depower range, keeping your backlines tight even at full depower. The fixed bridle adds another dimension for the intermediate to advanced rider. It offers a direct response and uses less bar input for immediate steering and a more crisp feel. UNITY STRUT CONNECTION The Unity Strut Connection provides a solid point from strut to leading edge, to create a stiff structure that helps in performance and relaunching. REAR LINE ADJUSTMENT The rear lines affect the turning speed of the kite. By moving the rear lines towards the leading edge, the kite becomes static and stable, perfect for wave riding.
