The Carve is a powerful, reactive and controllable kite, ideal for carving up a wave face, tucking into a barrel or boosting strapless tricks. Engineered with a stable, lower aspect ratio design for fast pivot turns and excellent drift, the Carve has an extremely direct feel in both bar pressure and steering initiation. For 2023, we’ve put the Carve back into its wave riding category. Refined bridling for a longer, more progressive travel means the kite feels smoother and more responsive throughout the full depower range. It is still reactive when you sheet out – to the very end. Improved overall balance also enhances drift, so when you’re surfing, it glides down the line, waiting for your bar input. More intuitive control – especially when the kite’s not visible on a big bottom turn, cut back, or in a barrel – means you can focus 100% on the surf. The Carve has a slightly reduced leading-edge diameter and thinned-out profiles. This gives the kite smoother power delivery, improves the high-end wind range, and helps you ride deeper in the pocket for longer. The kite won’t pull you aggressively off the rail, and you’ll have softer landings when doing big jumps. The 2023 Carve will also relaunch faster in critical situations. We’ve introduced lighter bladders in all sizes and a lighter 2-ply canopy reinforcement. This reduces weight and helps improve the turning speed in light wind while maintaining the Carve’s surf-tough durability. The Carve now flies faster, generating more power and board speed. It rockets upwind. Experienced riders will benefit from the kite’s impressive power and efficiency, while intermediate riders will find it offers a smoother, more user-friendly ride. Freeride and Strapless Freestylers will love the improved hangtime and catch for kite loops and softer landings.

High jumps. Long hang time. Large wind range.

Overpowered airs and mega loops in gusty conditions require unshakable confidence in your kite. The iconic 5 strut kite offers incredible top end control and allows you to hold more power per square meter than any other kite.

This kite is designed to get you upwind fast, with effortless steering, extreme boost and a hangtime guaranteed to take your breath away. Tested by nature, proven on the podium. Orbit has your back when the rules of gravity don’t apply. For 2022 we’ve refined the scales a bit to allow the Orbit to retain its light steering impulse, stability, high-end performance and kiteloop reset. We’ve also further reduced the weight of the kite with new, lighter bladders in multiple sizes, making the kite feel even lighter and more responsive in all conditions.
