DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Light Wind Performance
The WhisperModel is a lightwind powerhouse. It gets flying in just 4 knots with a foil and 6 knots with a twintip. You'll feel its stability in the wind window straight away, letting you ride longer without getting worn out. It’s the perfect tool for turning marginal days into memorable sessions.
Responsiveness and Steering
Thanks to its PROWELD construction and Hardflyte fabric, the kite responds instantly to your bar input. You get precise feedback and natural, intuitive handling, making it easy to progress and finely tune your power through maneuvers.
Jumps and Relaunch
The optimized leading edge profile ensures clean, vertical take-offs and soft landings. The relaunch is exceptionally smooth, even in ultra-light wind. Its design promotes a quick recovery from the water, whether you pull on a steering line or use the back lines.
Durability and Construction
The WhisperModel combines lightness with strength, thanks to Hardflyte, PROWELD, trailing edge stiffeners, and FLEXSTRUT Lite. These strategic reinforcements control the kite's flex while keeping weight to a minimum, creating a durable kite that doesn't sacrifice performance.
Accessibility
This kite is incredibly user-friendly: it resists stalling and drives upwind intuitively. We recommend it for schools and any rider looking for an easy-to-fly yet high-performance lightwind kite.
Versatile Use
Designed for foiling, freeride, and downwind, the WhisperModel covers a wide range of riding styles. Its comfortable high end lets you stay on the water longer when the wind picks up, so you don't have to swap kites mid-session.
