DESIGN PROFILE
5 Strut, Hybrid design, Fusion wing tip shape, Draft forward profile, Hybrid strut.

The kite that spawned not only a style of riding but also a whole generation of kiters has evolved into the highest performing Switchblade to date.

Utilizing the established Switchblade DNA as a starting point, the innovative minds within the Design Works team have advanced the original 5-strut design. Leveraging cutting-edge technologies, novel construction methods, and internal enhancements, they’ve achieved a kite with a more playful and lightweight feel, all while retaining its predictability and stability.

The Lite Series kite takes advantage of HTD Lite materials, making it the lightest Switchblade ever produced. When coupled with the Integrated Structural Canopy (ISC), we’ve successfully managed to significantly decrease the kite’s weight, enhance its durability, and improve its steering speed.

NEW: HTD Lite: Lightweight ultra rigid dacron
NEW: Switchblade DNA, cutting edge handling and performance
NEW: Revised aerodynamic profiles and design
NEW: Lighter and more playful control response
NEW: Bi-directional pure profile panels

TECH SPECS

 

SWITCHBLADE DNA
DNA is the genetic chain that defines who or what we are. When redesigning the kite we made sure that one of the DNA stands came from the Switchblade while the other is a new updated twist based on the findings from the Design Works team.

HTD LITE
Refined canopy design to reduce weight, combined with a full HTD Lite Dacron skeleton provides the lightest most reactive kites to date, increasing the range and performance of your product.

NANO RIPSTOP CANOPY
Nano Ripstop is a 55 g/m2 material with a 3mm double rip stop pattern. This micro rip stop material in unison with a newly developed coating, has given us a 2X increase in the canopy’s tear strength. A smaller rip stop pattern increases the amount of “cells” in any given panel.

SPRINT 3.0
The Sprint 3.0 inflation system increases air flow from leading edge to the strut. The new straight and angled valves allow for no kinking of the inflation tube. It’s secure fit design also allows for easy maintenance.

BULLET PROOF BUMPERS
These new Durable TPU bumpers are strong, lightweight and durable. They crossover protecting the canopy to LE sewing. A new manufacturing process helps with abrasion when the kite is resting on a hard surface.

EXPANDAPACK KITE BAG
An all NEW stylish expanding backpack allows for fast pack down and comfy transportation of your kite, pump and control system. Easily expands to carry multiple kites in one bag leading to more adventure and less faff!

NANO RIPSTOP CANOPY
The benchmark in durability, stability and responsiveness

REFINED SIMPLICITY
A balanced bridle with no pulleys gives a lighter feeling, faster turning and more responsive kite, allowing for a wider range of users and also control for jumping.

ULTIMATE PERFORMANCE
The most versatile kite in the industry allows for use in the widest range of conditions and variety of riding styles.

RIDICULOUSLY HIGH HANG TIMES
The 5 strut stable platform allows for stability in higher winds and the wide arc allows for increased glide.

EXCELLENT UPWIND PERFORMANCE
The unique profile of the canopy allows for effortless upwind performance.

BI-DIRECTION PURE PROFILE PANELS
The smoothest and most 3d correct shape we’ve ever created allowing the smoothest transition between the segmented leading edge and curved canopy.
