DETAILED DESCRIPTION
The Ride Feel
You'll immediately feel its light weight. The Ghost V3 has a light bar feel, delivers smooth pull, and pivots quickly. On a foil, the kite has a clean, progressive stall and drifts naturally when you slack the lines, giving you time to reposition your board. The feedback through the bridle is clear and progressive, a huge help in shifty wind or when you need to reposition the kite safely.
Choosing Your Size
The range runs from 2.5m² to 17m² to cover all conditions. The smaller sizes are for high winds and light-wind foiling, while the larger sizes are your light-wind machines. If you're mainly foiling in light wind, look at the 12m² and up. For freeriding on a twintip or allround foiling, the 6-10m² sizes are usually the sweet spot, depending on your build. Factor in your local wind range and how much drift you prefer to dial in your selection.
Construction and Materials
The Ghost V3 features a FrameLite airframe and 4X4 Canopy Tech, materials chosen to minimise stretch and hold the kite's shape under load. The 4X4 Canopy Tech material reduces distortion and keeps the profile responsive. The TrimFlight Bridle uses thinner lines to cut down on drag. The entire package is built for durability without adding weight, which is exactly what you want in a light, reactive kite.
On-Water Performance
On the water, the Ghost V3 is incredibly stable with excellent drift. It parks and waits when you slack the lines. The steering is crisp and direct, perfect for making quick adjustments when foiling. Relaunch is straightforward if you drop it, and the tight canopy ensures power delivery is smooth and predictable when powering out of turns.
Who is it for?
The Ghost V3 is for freeriders and foilers looking for a lightweight, user-friendly kite that drifts exceptionally well. If you spend most of your time on a foil or want a single kite for multiple disciplines, you'll appreciate its massive wind range and adjustable handling.
Buying Advice
Choose your size based on your local spot and whether you ride a foil or a twintip. Check the wind range for each size, and go bigger if you're foiling in light wind. Use the Rider Customization System (RCS) to tune the kite's feel: one setting provides a faster, more pivotal turn, while the other offers more stability and depower. Give us a call if you need help choosing the right size for your weight and style.
