The AMP represents a new paradigm in C-kite design. It is a progressive yet user-friendly Freestyle and Park-style kite, offering amateur to pro the response, feedback and control needed to take their riding to the next level.
Grow with You
- User-friendly progressive kite
- Primary focus on being predictable and adaptable
- Two Variable Bridle Geometry settings (4-Line Mode)
- 5-Line conversion option
The AMP has been developed to grow with you; no longer are the progressive kites for just the Professionals!
Providing Inspirational Confidence
From your first unhooked tricks, boosting kite loops, or styling out advanced park and freestyle manoeuvers, the AMP will keep you in control with the highest level of feedback, predictable turning speed and a similar feeling precisely tuned across all sizes. It is ultra smooth to fly and provides inspirational confidence to go for it!
New rip-stop material combination
The AMP V2 features our new rip-stop material combination.
The new rip-stop canopy material has an advanced ultra flex coating improving feedback in gustier conditions making for a smoother ride. The new technical rip-stop dacron is super tough, used on the Leading Edge and Struts it improves strength, durability and longevity.
All new Fast Flow One-Pump
An all new Fast Flow One-Pump Inflation System makes set up and packing quick and easy.
It features single point inflation/deflation and a high air flow rate between the Struts and Leading Edge, with clips to seal the hoses to prevent unwanted air flow in case of damage.
Interchangeable Performance Settings
The AMP features three unique and easily interchangeable performance settings to compliment your skill set and riding needs:
4-Line Bridle Mode Setting 1 – Freeride / Freestyle / Kite Loop
4-Line Bridle Mode Setting 2 – Unhooked Freestyle / Park
5-Line Mode – Unhooked Freestyle / Park (Advanced)
4-LINE MODE SETTING 1
FREERIDE / FREESTYLE / KITE LOOP
A refined feeling suited to general freeriding/freestyle.
Use this setting for freeride boosting and kite loops. Setting 1 is the upper knot on the Variable Bridle Geometry Pigtails.
4-LINE MODE SETTING 2
UNHOOKED FREESTYLE / PARK
The kite sits a little further back in the wind window and is tuned to excel unhooked. Increased bar pressure improves feeling from the kite. Setting 2 is the lower knot on the Variable Bridle Geometry Pigtails.
5-LINE MODE
UNHOOKED FREESTYLE / PARK (ADVANCED)
In 5-Line mode the AMP changes in overall performance.
The kite is supported in a tighter C-shape arc, with a more precise and direct feel on the bar, increased power during load up for pop, and increased slack when in the air. This slack also increases steering delay, offering more time for grabs and handle passes.
Re-launching in 5-Line mode is simple – either pull on one back line as in 4-Line mode, or in lighter winds reach up and pull Line no.5 to turn the kite over before re-launching.
4-LINE TO 5-LINE CONVERSION INFORMATION
The AMP ships standard in 4-Line Bridle mode. A simple conversion is required to the kite and control system for 5-Line mode.
- Included with each AMP kite is a 5-Line Conversion Kit (specific to the kite size) containing 1x Y-bridle and 2x Front Line Pigtails.
- Line no.5 (5th line) is required for the control system to use the AMP in 5-Line mode. This can be ordered separately, contact your dealer/shop for more info.
To convert from 4-Line to 5-Line mode, follow these instructions.
Tune your Amp some more
Backline adjustments allow you to further tune the AMP to your personal preference.
The attachment closest to the trailing edge provides lighter bar pressure and a faster turn speed. The attachment closest to the leading edge provides heavier bar pressure and a slower turn speed.
There’s no need to feel left behind, join the progression and stay AMP’d!
