Overview:
The Vice is designed to push the limits of high performance kiting. A pure freestyle kite which offers higher depower options than usually found on a high performance freestyle kite.
Maximum pop, Fast turning and extreme lift are all attributes that Fluid Kiteboarding built into the vice, while ensuring that intermediate riders would get the most out of it through through the depower options, safety system and easy relaunch.
Unhooked:
The unhooked performance of the Vice is amazing, offering smooth power, making it easier to manage helping you to stomp the latest trick.
Bar system:
The vice features a 5th line safety system with a "V" towards the top of the line which also helps keep ARC of the kite stable during loops and tricks, ensuring smooth power delivery. Once activated the Vice is super easy to relaunch.
Depower:
There are two depower settings on the front of the kite, PC (pure C) and HD (high depower) The HD setting gives you more depower to handle gusts and a bigger range at the bar. This gives the Vice a feeling close to a hybrid. The PC setting gives you a more traditional C kite feeling so when you unhook the kites power doesnt change as much as on the HD setting so it is easier to load up for tricks.
Turning:
Turning speed options - The vice features 3 options for the back line connection to give you a choice of a fast to average turning kite. Simply change it up for how you feel on the day, mega loops set it to 3, learning bar passes set it to 1.
