High quality epoxy resin pultruded Carbon Fibre

Carbon Fibre Tube in a range from 4 to 12mm outsite diameter, larger sizes available on request. Standard lengths 1m and 1.5m Our Carbon Fibre Tube comes in either a pultruded construction, pultruded is a stiff carbon that maintains a degree of flex.

The primary advantage of using carbon tubes for a project, vs. fiberglass or metal, is its high stiffness to weight ratio. Carbon fibre is stiff and very lightweight, making it ideal for rigid frame construction. There is a degree of flexibility to the carbon depending on diameter (small diameter has a lot more flex than large diameter tube)

Pultruded carbon tube, also known as graphite rods or unidirectional carbon fiber tube, are used in many industrial applications and aerospace designs, as well as in hobbies such as RC airplanes and RC sailboats, dual line kites and single line kites, and just about anywhere else you want a stiff, strong rod.

Cutting Carbon - We recommend the easiest and most cost effective way to cut carbon is with a fine tooth junior hacksaw... wrap the carbon with tape, and score the whole circumference with the blade before cutting all the way through. Also wearing eye protection and a dust mask for safety is a good idea!

Flexifoil - Blade V

Blade V

The Blade V is the unrivalled jumping fixed power kite. With the Blade V flyers will jump higher than ever, and experience the raw power that only this kite can generate, giving pure exhilaration every time they fly the kite.The all new design pushes more raw power and lift, into a legendary powerful canopy, giving all air junkies the ultimate weapon.
The Blade is and has always been the most versatile kite. Its unique characteristics have made it well suited for buggy jumping, freestyle kite landboarding, snowkiting and recreational jumping.

Design:
The Blade V's high aspect ratio, swept plan form creates a fast crisp turn rate, which combined with a monstrously powerful aerofoil creates insane lift and float, yet it retains the stability loved by all Blade flyers. The kite's thin profile is fast and efficient. This efficiency is aided by a high cell coupled with internal V ribs to support the profile. The V ribs also reduce the amount of bridle, which minimised the drag in the kite, whilst keeping the wing shape smooth and aerodynamically efficient.

Flyers of the Blade lV will notice that the Blade V kite turns faster and holds the power better through the turn. They will feel that the kite is very reactive to control inputs and has a more powerful feel giving longer higher floating jumps.

So how does it fare against the Blade IV?
- Improved Stability
- Increased float and hangtime
- More power generated through the turn
- Smoother progressive turn
- More static and recreational lift
- An amazingly powerful kite for experienced flyers wishing to jump with a buggy, board or if static jumping.

Features
Stable Hooped Planform
The planform is stable, powerful and helps the kite turn smooth and fast.

Pre-Stretched Unsleeved Dyneema® Bridle
Excellent strength and low stretch properties combined with a thin diameter creates low drag for a faster kite.

Internal Cross Bracing
Internal V-ribs across the entire canopy give the kite an increased lifting area, so you get more lift out of your kite than ever before.

Chikara Canopy
We use Chikara ripstop nylon for strength, tear resistance and long-term durability.

AAA Bridle Adjuster
Alters the relationship between the main and the brake bridles so you can set the kite to suit the conditions and your riding style.

Adjustable Cross Bridles
Choose your preferred turn speed.

Variable Cell Numbers
The number of cells in the kites increase as the sizes get bigger to create a cleaner profile making them faster and able to generate maximum power even in light winds.

Warning: This kite produces an enormous amount of power and lift, and could be dangerous in the hands of inexperienced fliers. Only use the large sizes in lighter wind conditions. Always read the manual included before use.
