Introduction
The WiND-X Monsoonz Ultra Flat Light Wind Bow is WiND-X's 2008
showcase kite. The concept was developed early last year with
the intention of having a kite which is more efficient when it
came to surface area without compensating stability. Finally,
the Monsoonz was produced after being known as "Project
Thunderer".
The Ultra Flat Light
Wind may deceive many. Its not about riding in lighter winds!
There will not be a day when there's a kite for "zero" wind
conditions. Its about having a much more efficient, smaller kite
where almost every surface area is fully utilized.
This is a very
new concept where straight struts with "in-fill" panels are used
in the kites design. There is so much to learn from this design
and the room for improvement is great. The Monsoonz should be
the benchmark of what is to come in this great sport. With the
ultra flat design, the Monsoonz is able to achieve a wider wind
range.
This kite may
offer many benefits but I believe that there is always a kite in
the current market to meet the different liking and riding
styles of every rider in the world; but we hope that the
Monsoonz will meet the demands of the general kiteboarding
population.
