Review Gaastra Jet 2016

Rider Profile

High performance enthusiast who loves to push his limits in freeriding, big air, low wind, race, foil.

Designers goals (manufacturer text)

The new Jet is all about high performance riding! The high performance profile delivers best upwind abilities combined with a huge wind range. You want to be the earliest gliding at the spot – this is your kite.
You want to travel with very little gear due to the high end depower – this is your kite! The trailing edge is equipped with a kevlar line encapsulated into a double spinnaker.
This extremely light and strong five-strut construction ensures a long life and delivers very stable handling. Despite the improved performance we also advanced the relaunch qualities. Truly this Kites success lies in the high-speed profile which provides long hangtime and direct feedback!
