The ultimate all-around wave riding machine, built to suit any rider’s needs, the Triad is intuitive, predictable, forgiving, and offers unmatched drift and control in any size surf. This three-strut kite has a center luff strut similar to the Boxer, which allows you to easily fly the Triad while overpowered. You can confidently pump up a Triad one to two sizes larger than you normally would, giving you lots of power with no compromises on control. The Quad-Tex ripstop material is durable, delivering a lighter and more responsive kite. If you are searching for a kite that does it all, the Triad will provide you just that, and more.
