Developed in collaboration with Hugo Guias and Mallory de la Villemarqué, this kite offers the best of a C-shape in terms of unhooked performance with the modern benefits of a clean bridle on the leading edge (de-power and stability).
Designed with 3 struts only, rigidity is created by its high segmentation panels.
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS:
- FREESTYLE / WAKESTYLE PROGRAM
- BAR PRESSURE MODERATE ON THE FRONT LINES
- LIGHT KITE WITH 3 STRUTS

Tech specs
TEIJIN TECHNOFORCE. From Japan.
Teijin is the leader in polyester tissue and fabrics for all kinds of sailing water sports. The kite structure is made of Dacron Teijin T- 71830, we use spi Teijin T- 96008.
OPTIMIZED AIRFOIL
Profiles used on the Takoon kites are the result of 10 years of R & D and simulation.
FAST FLOW SYTEM
This new system allows to fully inflate and deflate your kite very fast with a single non-return huge flow valve.
SLE BRIDLES SYSTEM
Our shapes are 4 lines SLE, offering the best performance / security ratio.
SEGMENTED & CONICAL LEADING EDGE
Its shape is conical to maintain kite rigidity while permitting twisting while turning, for optimal handling. The thin ends also reduce drag.
MOULDED LE BUMPERS
Large thermo-molded bumpers wrap around the leading edge, which provide seam protection when landing and launching the kite.
CANOPY REINFORCEMENT
Dacron reinforcements added on the front part of the kite profile strengthen this critical area and reinforce this high friction zone.
TE DISTRIBUTION CONTROL
It's a band of Insignia which ensure effective liaison between Dacron material and lightest fabric. It reduces flapping and weight.
VERTICAL SEAM STRUTS CONSTRUCTION
Struts are designed in order to optimise diameter / strength ratio.
TK MOULDED TE STRUTS END PROTECTORS
Optimal trailing edge protection with a moulded reinforcement at the end of each strut.
LOAD DISTRIBUTION PANEL
Distribution panels at the bridle connection points of bridles smoothly distribute kites load at critical points.
ADAPTIVE STEERING AND TURNING ABILITY
Different positions for back lines are possible for kite tunning.
KOOK PROOF CONNECTORS
These connectors prevent accidents by by guaranteeing that you cannot accidentally connect your lines incorrectly when rigging your kite.
