Takoon Furia 2012 Kite Review
Kite Features
The Furia is Takoon’s flagship product. It offers exceptional flight qualities and it is extremely reliable. The 2012 Furia is explosive, yet user friendly and easy to ride. It is an all-round kite that adapts itself to riding conditions and styles in order to offers maximum performance. The 2012 Furia features modernized tips shape, improved structural stiffness and better low end power.
The Furia is the perfect all-purpose kite for the dedicated rider. It can be used for virtually any style, due to its hybrid shape which combines the advantages of C and bridle in order to offer excellent power, control and safety. The new tip shape is optimized to assure fast turns on the wingtips, without affecting control.
A light bar pressure keeps the rider comfortable and assures a smooth flight across the entire window surface. A moderate aspect ratio assures precise and smooth control, as well as easy depower and relauch. The five struts configuration, combined with the LE bridle, assures a rigid platform which keeps the kite steady and allows it to absorb gusts with ease. The profile specific location creates explosive power, which comes in handy for advanced riders that love huge loops and lifts.
The kite generates instant punch upwards and a huge amount of lift. If by any chance the kite is crashed, the rider can get it back in the air by simply pulling on one of the back lines. The four line system assures a direct feel and precise steering. The kite is powered through a single point inflation system which assures a quick and clean setup.
