Starkites R&D team has devoted a large amount of time to testing and improving each detail of ExA 09. The result is amazing ... See for yourself!
As with all the Starkites products, the ExA has been developed using state of the art technology and our specialized know-how to make this kite a market leader.
>>> The Auto Morphing Profile enables a dual action:
1. Auto-stabilisation of the kite when it is located at the edge of wind window in gusty winds.
2. Double De-power allowing the kite to flatten the center profile in addition to reducing the angle of attack when sheeting out.
In more technical terms, the ExA s Central Strut Curve Curve is inverted and linked to the canopy by a fabric wall. This feature prevents the kites stalling in gusty winds and also increases the effect of sheeting in and out. Kites with standard struts change the angle of attack when the rider sheets in or out. The ExA changes both the center profile shape and the angle of attack which all leads to better de-power capacity using smaller movements on the bar.
>>> The bridle system is key to a kite s performance. With the ExA, we focused on developing the Dual Bridle System
This bridle system will always keep the kite arch in the same shape and ensure power transmission to be complete. The bridle does not absorb or lose force, which makes you get a real and direct response from your kite.
In the Dual System, the central bridle keeps the leading edge in a constant perfect shape, and the lateral bridle gives direct power transmission while maintaining the best kite balance according to the kite s center of power.
>>> ICE technlogy stands for Inner Curved leading Edge.
The leading edge shape ensures minimal contact with water when the kite is on the water. It also guarantees a fast and easy re-launch.
Just power-up and pull one of the leader lines a few centimetres and it will re-launch the kite. No more swimming needed!
This is the same technology as developed for Starkites SBOW kite, a renowned model for its amazing re-launch capabilities.
>>> Central Inflation
The ExA 09 is available in 2 versions - one with and one without Central Inflation - we want to satisfy all our customers needs and preferences (ask your shop what is available).
>>> High Strength Structure
ExA Hight Strength Structure creates a very reactive kite thanks to its hybridal radial construction : 1/3 bi-radial and 2/3 tri-radial.
Fabric fibers are orientated in the same exact direction as the power is distributed from, which creates a strong and stiff structure that results in minimum energy loss, increased reactivity, easier contro and increased wind range.
This reliable trainer kite will be your first ‘’step to pleasure’’ while learning how to pilot but also train yourself when wind conditions are too low for inflatable kites to fly.
Strong Durability - Crash proof
As for any kite student, major wish is to fly a kite which is the least sensitive to pilot mistakes and crashes. This will allow you to progress and understand the do’s and dont’s of kitesurfing. For this reason, our TrainerKite08 has been tested and designed to resist repetitive and strong crashes.
Made of quality Rip stop Nylon (75g/m2: TBC), cell vent and cell walls air passage are strengthen and surrounded by webbings.
4 pressure release valves located on the trailing edge to avoid tear during a full speed kite crash.
Tested by labeled kite schools, our TrainerKite08 can endure long sessions of kite teaching during months and without loosing its original shape and state.
Stability & Reactivity
* Similar sensations as "real" kites
* From take off to landing, you will feel very close behavior and sensations to future kites you will pilot while progressing.
* Its 40cm EVA coated aluminum bar with 18m lines (140kg/Dyneema) allied to the kite shape will give constant moderate pull and high reactivity.
Simple & Accessible
Ready to fly with a unique setting, TrainerKite08 can be launched from 4 knots and fly up to 30 knots.
Available in 1.5 and 2.5 sqm, with storage bag.
Makes a perfect gift for those willing to enter Kite world without investing too much…
