Technical Features
Outline & Canopy Curve (ARC)
Adjustment of the outline and canopy curve makes turning more harmonious and delays flow separation, for smoother and more precise loops without stalling.
Refined Profile Sections
Power delivery is more progressive and feedback to the harness and bar is increased to create maximum explosiveness while maintaining balanced depower.
Increased Aspect Ratio & CCB
Higher aspect ratio combined with Chord Cut Billow technology delivers performance gains without loss of control. More hangtime and faster flight speed.
Air Intake Line
Supports launching and prevents deformation of the leading edge. Enhances control at low angles of attack and speeds up chamber filling across the wingspan.
Performance Parameters
Big Air Performance
The SONIC5 is tuned to the training demands of the world’s Big Air elite. Explosive takeoffs, maximum hangtime and clean landings – a kite for riders chasing jump frequency.
Increased Vertical Lift
The kite flies through the wind window with minimal lateral forces and high speed. Takeoffs are easier to time and the lift follows progressively.
Optimized Heliloop
Loops more harmoniously and precisely without stalling. More controlled and softer landings with an impressive second lift after the loop.
Stability and Control
Excellent power-to-depower ratio with high stability at full speed and in turbulent conditions. The highest backstall resistance of all high-performance kites in the lineup.
Who is SONIC5 for
Big Air Training
Internalizing complex movement patterns and replicating them. More hours on the water with increased jump frequency – for Big Air riders and airstylers.
Hydrofoil Big Air
For everyone who falls asleep while cruising. Amazing jumping performance on a hydrofoil for maximum fun and progression.
High-performance Freeride
Sporty foil kite feeling for experienced riders. Push it until your muscles burn – the SONIC5 has more to give than meets the eye.
