Streamlined Force Frame
The STOKE features a refined tapered frame design that enhances both stability and control.

Built with durable Dacron reinforcements and premium Teijin D2 canopy material, it delivers a crisp, reliable feel session after session.
Pulley-assisted Bridle System
A balanced bridle and efficient angle-of-attack adjustments directly influence the kite’s dynamics and twist. The STOKE is supported by a well-balanced 4-point bridle system and Ronstan pulleys, enhancing stability, turning, drift, and relaunch capabilities.
Weight Saving and Tuning Options
Additional back line tuning options allow you to fine-tune the kite’s handling to match your riding style.
