STAR Kite Boarding Kites TAINA V8
Creating the ULTIMATE WIND MACHINE, took STAR eight years to refine the 8th Generation TAINA V8 Masterpiece to cover all Styles, at any Level under any Conditions.
Looking for that All-Terrain Kite, the TAINA V8 is the perfect solution with ideal performance for the Waves. This Kite will keep you STOKED from the first session to the last!
WAVE RIDING
The TAINA reacts very well to bar input, can be steered one-handed, and has a very precise feel allowing riders to position the kite anywhere in an instant. The kite’s excellent depower gives riders the option to surf with or without kite power. There is no need to look at the kite to know where it is allowing riders to completely focus on the wave.
FREERIDE/OLDSCHOOL
This all-round beast turns sharp, jumps high, has incredible grunt, and catches well during mega-loops. Due to its great depower, sending the kite in overpowered conditions without losing your edge is easily achieved. Its power delivery is exponential giving the kite a superb vertical lift.
BEGINNERS/KITE SCHOOLS
The Tania’s performance also excels in its user-friendly characteristics. Its profile is shaped in a way that makes the kite virtually impossible to stall and re-launches effortlessly. Due to the TAINA’s total depower ability; this kite is very safe and easy to use.
With over 200 windy days a year, our test center in Cabarete demands a kite that can last in surf wipeouts, heavy shore break, strong winds, school use and very frequent sessions. To satisfy this demand, we’ve gathered the best canopy material, one pump system/valves, and bridle lines currently available in the trade.
The 8th generation TAINA 2019 comes in 4 color options, kite bag, and repair kit.
