20 years ago, the Contra took light wind riding to a new level. It has graced the quivers of many kiters throughout the past two decades acting either as their all-round everyday kite, or as the ultimate session saver.
This year sees the largest evolution to the Contra legacy.
Through the use of HTD Lite and the Lite Frame technology we have been able to reduce the weight of the kite by 15%, allowing it to perform even better in those threshold winds.
The three-strut design makes this kite the go to for light wind twin tip riding, and also makes it the best jumping light wind kite we have ever developed.

DESIGN PROFILE

3 Strut, Hybrid design, Low drag wing tips, Draft forward profiles.

    "Dubbed the 'session saver', the kite needs no introduction. It's been around for some years and the 15m always finds a spot in my quiver as the go to when the wind is light. With the new 03 features, the kite has upgraded performance in key areas. What stands out the most is the ability to hold in the sky with little to no wind. The wind range is equally impressive. From low end grunt, to the depower. I'm able to push this kite freestyling in boots or take out a beginner for the very first time. The kite has a very comfortable predictable feeling that can help you progress in all areas of the sport. Talk about versatility!" - Lucas Arsenault

    LITE FRAME

    The Lite Frame has the benefits of the proven HTD Lite Dacron along with a refined canopy design to provide the lightest most reactive kites to date. This light-weight frame increases the range and performance of your product.

    HTD LITE

    The next evolutionary jump in inflatable structures is HTD Lite.  We took the superior benefits of the proven HTD material to which have superior elongation control and combined it with a superior reflex bias recovery and lighter weight construction to elevate the response characteristics and range of the kite.

    SPRINT 3.0

    The new 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.

    ADVANCED STRUT TECHNOLOGY

    Refined airfoil shape for improved air flow and efficiency.
