Last year F1 released their patented Integral depower system and so started the hybrid revolution, this year F1 have improved integral again for a more direct feel and precise response. The kite is 10th generation C-shape, the Integral system is second generation, there simply is nothing comparable out there. 100% depower may be your thing, it might not... either way the phenomenal performance of the Tribal kite really stands out. The precise direct response allows incredible wind range, down low it generates apparent wind and up high it stays at windows edge no matter how strong and gusty it blows, or how fast you go. And when it comes to speed we guarantee you will be amazed on the Tribal. We know that regardless if you ride waves or flat water, hooked or unhooked Tribal is an intuitive kite for any conditions or style. The unbeatable handling and acceleration will make you very happy. Something else that makes us happy is the kite connects at 5 points instead of 6 and the stop and go system is elasticised. Simplicity and function make the Tribal a joy to use in any situation. If you have not flown an F1 then you don’t know what you are missing.

Tech spec F1
Improved Integral System for fantastic depower without any interference to performance. You know what feels right and so does F1. Crisp and precise riding sensation, placement of the kite exactly where you want when you want, ability to select your ideal power level at all times. Integral delivers unprecedented wind range and smooth traction control to guarantee you keep your edge in any situation.
Sweptback optimized wing tips deliver better aerodynamics, stiffness, lighter weight and handling. 2 front lines connect higher on the leading edge where it is phat and strong. This results in a low virtual aspect ratio improving stability and response to steering and sheeting.
S concept trailing edge is a continuous no stretch Dacron panel which efficiently distributes the tension of the steering lines giving you crisp handling and control. Its aggressive shape focuses reinforcing to critical areas. Dacron protects your kite from damage and reduces flapping to dramatically increase its life.
Life Line safety allows easy re-launching and maximum safety in any situation by functioning like a full 5th line release, but giving the appearance of a simple 3 line bar !
Stop and go function just release the bar and the kite descends without power to rest on in its wingtip ready for immediate restart. You will be amazed.
Rider review Tribal2 13m"These kites rock, I could not beleive the range and response of the 13m, it is faster and easier to handle than most 10s but has more grunt then a lot of 15s. I used the large extra chicken loop that came in the bag for unhooking and was very impressed with the smoothness of this kite. The stop and go function was unreal. Straight away I felt comfortable and confident with the awesome speed encouraging me to up the ante. This is what kiteboarding is meant to feel like all the time. M A QLD"
