Adjustable Stopper
developed by TAKOON is
the first 100 % adjustable system for FULL de-power.
It allows each rider to tune their de-power system to
their favourite spot or style! |
The functioning
is easy :
An adjustable stopper ball sliding along the de-power
rope to set up your own de-power zone.
A new clam-cleat trimming system to
adjust power. The NTS system is made to provide maximum
safety. By screwing up slightly, the stopper will slide
up after a frank ‘let go’. The Furia being
a 100 % de-power kite, has the power go down to zero
and kite is neutral. Safety is total.

 |
Free-sliding
mode.
By not screwing the stopper, it can slide and goes up
into the upper part.
The kite is then neutral and rider is in the total safety
position. So just let go the bar for total safety.
Ideal for school, beginner or
gusty/dangerous conditions.

Safety
catch mode.
The safety catch position is materialised by a higher
diameter on the de-power rope.Located at about 35 cm
from the rider. By screwing the stopper slightly, the
kite benefits from a safety catch zone and won’t
move all the way up. In this zone, the bar is naturally
stopped on its way up in a ‘normal’ riding
situation.
By pushing the bar up , it goes passed the safety zone
and can then slide all the way up again.
Ideal for most conditions &
waveriding. You get huge de-power to try all the new
tricks.

 |
Set
mode.
By screwing the stopper tighter whatever its position
(below or above the safety catch zone), the control system
works like a classical C kite. The stopper is fixed and
stays in place.
Ideal for radical tricks, unhooked
manoeuvres
Warning : this set up mode is extreme and asks for a classical
release on the chicken loop in case of danger. |
|
Passive
Security System
The priniciple behind the safety system is simple and
straight-forward. You will accquire confidence right
from the start with the Furia.
Nothing to release!
Simply by letting go of thebar, the kite will go neutral
and lands without any more power. The kite is held only
by it's leading edge. The control system slide about
1.50m away and can be easily retrieved through the depower
line.
The control system remains equipped with a regular quick
release in case of emergency and full separation.

Relaunching
without swimming:
a)The neutral positions provides full safety.
b)Simply by pulling in the rear line, the kite moves
to the edge of the window and is ready to relaunch.
c)No need to swim towards the kite to make it rotate.
d)No need to re-load a safety system after a <<safety
action>>.

Depower
Adjustment Strap: The Max control
bar comes with an adjustment strap located on the
depower line. The strap allows the kite to adapt to
varying wind conditions. When the line is fully extended,
the kite generate it's full power, exactly as when
you pull on the control bar.
By shortening the strap, the kite gets less power.
To regain power, pull on the trim strap. You will
be able to gradually increase the power of your kite
by slowly pulling on the trim strap.
