Hydrofoil and wave riders
Designers goals (manufacturer text)
- The lightest kite we have ever made. (The 9m Ultra is NEARLY 30% lighter than a 9m Lithium)
- Lasts twice as long (New V4 Dyneema load frame featuring WebTech)
- Perfect for Freeride Foil, lightwind and strapless riding.
Five years after introducing the first single strut kite on the market, we introduce the all-new Airush ULTRA.
With the radical growth in Hydrofoil riding, the increased trend in strapless drift style wave riding along with the constant search for a kite that flies in lighter winds, the demand for a new generation of kite is clear.
The ULTRA introduces a new breed of the lightest and strongest technology ever developed.
Key Users:
- The ultimate freeride foilboarding kite with incredible relaunching capabilities that can handle gusty conditions.
- The stability, profile and light weight allows the Ultra to drift down the line, making it perfect for riding waves less powered, parking the kite and going for that true surf feel.
- The bigger sizes are also ideal for twintip riding no matter what your level.

These kites (I have the 9 & 12) are incredibly good and ideal for TT and Foiling. I even sold my Ozone Edge 11m, the Ozone Edge 8m I still use for stronger winds on the TT. This type of kite will take over the market in the comming year (like the Alpha, Boxer and Mono).

Hi Andrej
Did you also tried the 12 Air Rush Ultra? I am looking for a Kite for foiling. I can not decide if I should buy size 12 or 15. I am 67 kg. Ultra 15 has verry good lowend and I think over 14 knots I will change to my other kite. But I think 15 will be much slower for the handling.
What are your experience?
Definitely get a 9m, 12 and 15 are too big for foiling, you will be overpowered in normal seabreeze (ie. gusts to 13knots).
