DETAILED DESCRIPTION
What you'll feel
You'll feel the kite lift you higher and keep you in the air longer. The high aspect ratio and five-strut design create a tangible secondary lift at the apex of your jump. The bar pressure is clear and progressive, helping you manage the power as you ascend. Landings feel smoother, and the steering maintains a reassuring precision when you want to throw another jump or attempt more committed loops.
Sizes and how to choose
The range covers 6 to 12m², a spread that's ideal for Big Air riders in varied wind conditions. Choose a smaller size if you often ride in strong winds and want to maximize responsiveness; go for a larger size for light winds and extra hangtime. Adjust your choice based on your body size and local spot, keeping in mind that the TRIGGER TEC prioritizes height and power delivery.
Construction and What Makes the Difference
The TRIGGER TEC uses Dacron DLE 140, a fabric known for its stiffness and durability, which helps the kite hold its shape during jumps and loops. The construction includes a One Pump system for easy inflation and a five-strut frame that maintains the high-performance profile. These features ensure flight stability and instant responsiveness when you sheet in.
On-water behaviour
On the water, the TRIGGER TEC performs like a kite that prioritizes lift and power delivery. It remains stable in flight even during quick sends and holds a clean trajectory through your jumps. The long depower throw provides progressive power management: you can load up before takeoff, then sheet out for that secondary lift. After a landing, the kite recovers predictably in the wind window.
Who it's for / level
Designed by Ralf Grösel for Big Air, this kite is aimed at intermediate to advanced riders looking for comfort at height and confidence in their loops. It makes Big Air more accessible without being a beginner's kite. If you have some jumping experience and want to progress in loops and hangtime, it will be an excellent fit.
Buying advice
If you often ride at windy spots, choose a smaller size from the available range; take a larger size to gain hangtime in light winds. Check compatibility with your bar and lines before buying. Finally, try to demo the kite if possible to feel its looping characteristics and bar pressure, as these are key elements for Big Air.
