DETAILED DESCRIPTION
XTC Tex V2 Leading Edge.
This high-tenacity, multi-layer composite fabric is ultra-resistant to deformation. It's very stiff, light, and low-absorbing, transmitting pure and instant feedback with every input on the bar. Combined with XT 2.0 reinforcements, it extends the kite's lifespan without sacrificing any performance.
Teijin X4 Panels.
Teijin X4 panels are renowned for their durability and exceptional profile retention. The shape remains consistent session after session, even after intensive use. This fabric is a proven performer on high-end kites.
Teijin X6 Trailing Edge.
More rigid to better hold the shape and limit deformations, even under heavy load in strong conditions. The Trailing Edge maintains its form and guarantees consistent performance throughout your session.
6-Point Bridle.
The geometry has been refined for optimal load transfer and direct feedback. Bar pressure remains moderate, preventing arm fatigue even during long sessions. The result is exceptional control and comfort.
Delta Hybrid Shape, 5 Struts
Engineered for unwavering stability and rigidity, even in strong wind, the kite remains predictable and consistent in the most demanding conditions. This configuration delivers the best compromise between big air performance and versatility.
Who is it for?
The Stratos+ is designed for intermediate to expert riders who are ready to push their limits in big air and extreme freeride. It's ideal for those seeking massive lift, powerful loops, and unwavering stability. Available from 6m² to 12m².
