Airush Flow FT 2009

2009 Airush Flow FT

The key ideology of the Airush Flow FT is to pursue the absolute highest all round performance levels, whilst reducing complexity for the rider.The 2009 Airush Flow FT introduces variable canopy curve. This unique innovation optimizes the center area of the canopy, which is flatter and more efficient than traditional kites. This translates into a lower center of effort, which increases depower while reducing bar pressure and bar throw. The shape maintains the vertical component in the wingtip to prevent side slip and enhance directional steering.

This translates into a lower center of effort, which increases depower while reducing bar pressure and bar throw. The shape maintains the vertical component in the wingtip to prevent side slip and enhance directional steering.

Through research into improving the stiffness to diameter ratio of the leading edge, we developed an Aramid composite sandwich construction, which we utilize in the wingtip area. This feature creates a more direct steering due to a wingtip/LE structure that is 50% stiffer than a standard wingtip. This has enabled us to remove the cross bridle which further enhances the steering.
