DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Versatility and Big Air Performance
The BANGER QuadX is the result of Charles Brodel's expertise, a six-time kite foil world champion. This kite was designed for all conditions, all levels, and all riding styles. It combines a carefully researched design with innovative materials for exceptional control and handling. While allround, it's formidable in Big Air, offering spectacular lift, extended hangtime, and total mastery, even in the most extreme conditions.
QuadX Composite Stiffness and Lightness
With its QuadX Composite Leading Edge, the BANGER remains incredibly stiff and stable, even in the strongest gusts, while maintaining a lightness that extends its wind range. The QuadX is based on a four-layer architecture (Film Inside concept), featuring an Ultra-PE fabric five times more resistant to traction than the best dacron, at only 125 g/m². Combined with HT80 on the profile, it guarantees perfect fluidity in sheeting, intuitive handling, and instant bar feedback.
Stability and Repositioning at the Edge of the Window
Its ability to reposition itself in the wind window according to conditions is a major asset. In light wind, it easily recovers power; in gusts, it can accelerate at the edge of the window without pulling excessively. This ability to move provides increased stability, allows for forgiveness of errors, and enables serene riding, whatever your level.
Six-Point Fixed Bridle
The six-point fixed bridle delivers a perfect balance of kite hold and smooth handling, offering a direct connection and exceptional responsiveness. Its progressive sheeting ensures controlled power delivery, letting you anticipate jumps easily, achieve optimal edging, and enjoy gradual acceleration.
Constant and intuitive bar feel
With its constant bar feel, you'll always know exactly where the BANGER QuadX is, so you can confidently send your jumps, kiteloops, and rotations. Each size is optimized for specific needs and wind range: larger sizes excel in light wind, while smaller ones shine in stronger conditions for landing tricks and Big Air loops.
Vertical Lift and Second Lift
In all conditions, this BANGER delivers impressive vertical lift, extended hangtime, and a second lift that makes high, easy jumps possible, followed by soft landings, all without needing downloops. Versatile, intuitive, and high-performing, the BANGER QuadX is ready to boost your ride.
