AN IMPERATOR LIKE NO OTHER
Each one handcrafted and painted with meticulous attention to detail offering a superior riding experience like no other.

TURN HEADS. REACH NEW HEIGHTS.
Combining the best quality and vibrant aesthetics this board will elevate your kitesurfing experience and turn heads anywhere you go. The unique Cartan 2 carbon in combination with the high-quality color finish guarantees new heights and plenty of attention.

New! CARTAN 2
Cartan 2, as it’s called, combines untwisted, unidirectional carbon fiber strands with minimal epoxy binders into a thin, flat, 30° scrim matching the exact board size. The evenly distributed, very straight fibers result in a composite laminate with a lighter, more uniform microstructure than those produced using conventional woven-fabric pre-pregs. The Imperator’s improved filament-to-filament load transfer results in an incredibly energetic Gen7 that’s 100g lighter.

New! REVO
A clever rocker adjuster integrated into the grab handle instantly increases or decreases the Imperator 7’s rocker by 15mm resulting in a board that can do it all. Rocket upwind when rocker is reduced. Or increase rocker when you’re in the mood to play around.

Hull
The Imperator 7 carries over its signature features that have been perfected over 20 years. The Ellipse channels energy to the fins and edges when warranted and absorbs the rest. A double concave V-shaped keel cuts through the roughest chop and delivers incredible grip and poise. Hand-finished rails feature slightly sharper, drag-reducing, tucked under rail shapes that help carve buttery smooth turns.

Light wind approved
See, feel and experience a lightwind masterpiece. See the shimmer of the proprietary carbon fiber, feel the unique hand-finished rails, and experience the power, control, and sheer pleasure the new LW edition generates in the lightest of winds.

LW 146X45
The optimal combination between fast planing and sporty agility. Wider tips and symmetric rails mean it planes fast while remaining nimble.

LW 152X48
The smaller Imperator 7 LW features a classic Imperator 7 outline. It’s ideal for locations with unreliable or variable winds.
