Performance:
The 2006 Element design has been refined to make it faster turning and more stable. The conditions that a snow kite must perform in vary greatly and can change in an instant. This is the reason that the safety system has been redesigned, for instant and total kill of the kiteæs power. The high quality backpack is designed to carry a two kite quiver, board, food, and extra clothing for the long haul.
Design:
The bridle system has been improved to make the 2006 Element faster-turning and more responsive. The new design features include a dynamic panel layout, an upgraded security system and state of the art new materials. The open cell foil design allows for greater pressure in the kite when flying and instant deflation when the kite falls to the ground.
Construction:
The 2006 Element is constructed with new high-quality light-weight fabrics that improve the strength to weight ratio. A new clam cleat has been added to improve the overall strength. The quick release trim loop (QRTL) has been redesigned for easy release.
