Light air performance has always been at the heart of the Helium. Every material, panel, stitch, has been carefully optimized to reduce weight while maintaining core strength and usability.
Drift, effortless control, and light air performance make the Helium the perfect foilboarding tool.
The excellent drift and quick turning response that makes the Helium excel in foil boarding also gives the wave rider the perfect tools to effortlessly surf in the widest wide wind range.
For the Helium 3, we have extended size range from 18m down to 7m. The smaller sizes extend the Heliums versatility for foilboarders and surfers that love a light responsive feeling kite. The Helium’s 3-strut progressive profile and refined fixed bridle design give the Helium the ability to cover a large set of performance criteria. From foilboarding, wave riding, to twin-tip freeriding.
Every size in the Helium 3 range has been individually refined to maximize performance.
7m, 8m, 9m, 10m, 12m - Foil and Wave optimized
o Specially tuned for light wind foiling and surfing.
o Extremely light and responsive control.
14m, 16, 18m - Light wind freeride optimized
o Tuned for the heavier riders.
o Extra power and light wind grunt.
Carefully selected materials, panel design, and lightweight rub areas have minimized weight while maintaining the legendary structural strength all Switch kites are famous for. The Helium will dominate the same levels of punishment out on the water but with lightweight rub areas, extra care is needed when handling the kite on the beach.
High projected area maximizes lift while reducing drag for efficiency and speed. 3-Struts provide sufficient canopy shape to create power without distortion.
The Helium 3 has a direct, light and responsive bridle system designed to give you the highest level of control in any wind conditions.
