Jest of EVE Kites :: Talon Ultra Light

TALON (Ultra Light)

The Talon UL was developed with low weight as the key factor. The Standard has good low wind ability, but the UL has VERY low wind ability.

Capable of low wind drive, higher wind robustness and the familiar Talon feel, the UL is a great compliment to an already capable trick machine.

	The Talon UL is a superb cutting-edge freestyle trick kite allowing you to express yourself with a huge range of tricks and combos in very low wind conditions.
	Tricks like Insanes and Rolling Cascades are available to you in the lightest of winds!

	Has excellent pitch performance for an UL and incorporates Roll Bars* making it yoyo and multi-wrap with ease in low wind conditions.
	Yoyo Stoppers are equipped with a 'slip-catch'. If a line tries to slip off of the Roll Bar after a 'pop' input, the slip-catch will save the trick and keep you flying.
	The lightweight ripstop leading edge material covers socket and yoyo-stopper cut outs to eliminate line snags. Yoyo cover is internally and externally reinforced for longevity.
	Upper socket glide is internally reinforced to overcome snags through the light ripstop leading edge material.
	The trailing edge is lightly reinforced to ensure longevity throughout the kite's lifetime.
	Leech line is adjustable.
	Lower leading edge 3PT spar is standard length and easily replaced with spare (O-Rings are optional, but recommended).
	Leading edge Middle Section (P90 containing 2x 6mm hollow ferrules), allows for easier changing of Upper and Lower leading edge spars. No need for ferrule gluing.
	Fittings on the lower spreader ends prevent snags and cutting of the lower sockets.
	Great freestyle trick flying with few interruptions. The Talon UL flows smoothly through it's trick repertoire with great fluidity and flies cleanly all day with great close-to-the-ground recovering ability!
	Non-snag, 3-piece nose webbing with no hot sealing.
	Versatile sail graphic that looks fantastic and contains many themes and colouring preferences.
