STRUTS

Kites can have different numbers of struts. The fewer the struts, the easier the kite will be to turn. Kites with more struts have greater stability in the air, which gives them a larger windrange. However, this also makes the kite heavier.

SINGLE STRUT

Kites with just a single strut, such as the Duotone Mono, offer outstanding performance in light winds and are also great for cruising. Thanks to its low weight, this kite will get you up and running before anyone else if there isn’t much wind.

THREE STRUTS

For several years, kites with three struts have been becoming increasingly popular, whether it’s for freestyle or wave kites. Thanks to the reduced weight, these kites also offer good performance in light winds, while still ensuring a direct and precise feel thanks to the robust kite profile. They turn very quickly and the bar feels predictable and highly responsive.

FIVE STRUTS

Five struts has been the classic kite construction since the sport began. It is the key to massive depower, hangtime and smoothness, even in extremely gusty conditions. The kite continues to respond quickly to steering input, even when completely depowered.
