EPIC KITES and BEST kites
2010 was an amazing year for EPIC kites. People loved the way the SCREAMERS flew but we wanted to build on this amazing model and make it even better. For the 2011 SCREAMER, we made the 12 & 14 sizes 12% faster and reduced the bar pressure by 8%. We then took the construction to a new level and reinforced key areas for added strength. The 7 & 9 SCREAMER has undergone small construction improvements and minor tweaks for enhanced unhooked performance. We've taken the 2011 SCREAMER line-up to the next level by raising the bar for construction strength and flight characteristics. Check the media section for rider testimonials.
Designed by legendary rider Dimitri Maramenides, this is the ultimate weapon for big jumps, hang time, and unhooked moves. If you're interested in jumping higher, riding faster and escalating every level of your kite surfing experience, then the Screamer is what you want to ride. This is the kite for those that will accept nothing less than excellence in all categories. The experienced rider will enjoy the top end competition ready performance the Screamer offers, while the intermediate appreciates the fast re- launch and effortless turning that makes every session a progress builder. Thus making the 2011 Screamer the "ALL ACCESS" kite for any segment of the sport ˆ from racing to hang time to unbelievable pop and incredible unhooked riding and turning speed, this kite delivers. Whether your goal is to win competitions or just take your riding to the next level, the Screamer is the kite you have been looking for. Try one today!
Throughout 2010, the RENEGADE was the kite that everyone was talking about! The response was amazing from riders across the globe with varied riding styles and needs. Check the media section for rider testimonials.
The 2011 Renegade 9 meter sizes was improved to make it 12% faster with 10% less bar pressure and added structural reinforcements. The Renegade 6 was near perfect, but riders will enjoy additional reinforcement and minor tweaks on the bridle for the 2011 version. Our greatest challenge was updating the RENEGADE 11 meter size. We wanted to make this kite more powerful with less bar pressure and faster than its predecessor. To pull this off we went back to the drawing board and started from scratch! Proudly, we announce the 2011 RENEGADE 11 meter, which is substantially more powerful, significantly faster, and totally stability!
The 2011 Renegade is a new freestyle/wave kite that combines the best of both worlds. The turn of the kite increases in power throughout the arc by pivoting off of the wing tip. This makes for powered kite loops unlike anything on the market. You need a kite that helps you find this nirvana, one that takes you to a new level and pushes the limits of what is possible for waves, wake style, and powered moves. With 100% depower and incredible stability the Renegade leads in all categories of riding. Smooth lively and responsive the steering makes it the ideal kite for surfing and a blast to ride in any condition. New riders will appreciate it's superb ease of use, unreal stability and ultra easy relaunch, while advanced riders will benefit from a predictable kite that has a steady pull through the turns, eats gusts and waits for your next command!
The Renegade will come with an additional set of 15 meter lines in the kite bag. This is seperate from the lines that come on the Xtend bar. The idea is that you can use these for wave riding, teaching and really fun mega-loops. The 15M lines give the kites more speed and you feel closer to the kite and hence, more connection.
The 2010 SCREAMER 10 LTD was a HUGE success and we wanted to continue this powerful model with further fine tuning for enhanced performance. The Limited Edition is an extremely powerful kite using the same design characteristics as the Screamer but with a slightly different profile making this 10 meter as powerful as any other 12 meter kite in the market. For 2011 we decided to tweak the plans of the 10 LTD and make this kite become part of you, improving the direct feel. So now not only do you get the amazing hang time but, the unhooking is even better then last years model, with powerful grunt amazing pop and explosive jumps.
This kite will be good for heavier riders that are looking for a kite to fill the wind range between moderate and light but, don’t want to pull out a very large kite. For lighter riders, this will be the largest kite they need if they ride a surfboard in the lighter winds but, then switch to a twin tip when the wind picks up. Racers and will love this kite as well due to the efficiency and it's ability to sit more forward in the wind window. So in few words if you where very happy with the 2010 SCREAMER 10 LTD, this one will blow your mind. If you haven't yet tried the LTD 10, it offers superior low end and unmatched upwind abilities. Check the media section for rider testimonials.
Take the rulebook and throw it away! The Renegade Infinity is changing what you know about kiting in light winds and is setting the benchmark for others to follow. The Renegade Infinity is the newest addition to the RENEGADE 6/9/11 line and is dedicated to riders looking to up their game in winds between 7 and 18 knots. The lighter riders (140 - 180 lbs) will appreciate sessions in the 7 to 11 knot range. In this range you'll no longer have to work the kite to keep it in the air. We developed the Renegade Infinity so that you will enjoy more sessions than ever before. For riders in the 180 - 220 lb range, you'll be rewarded by the consistent, strong pull and great low end to get you up and planing. But everyone will appreciate the snappy turning performance of this kite. That's right - we created a kite that pulls like most 18 meter kites but flies with characteristics common to 12 or 13 meter kites. You can now have a kite that pulls well in very light winds, but responds like a smaller kite. For the first time, the best of both worlds exists!
For the ultimate light wind experience, match the Renegade Infinity with the Oxygen kiteboard and go places you never thought you could! With this combination, you'll no longer have to be content mowing the lawn in light wind. Ride with style and aggression. At Epic, we didn't just bring a light wind kite to market...we brought THE light wind kite to the riders. Try one today and never be stuck on the beach again.
We have developed a unique bar system which will allow you to use one bar for your whole range of kites. The XTEND bar switches from 45 to 55cm in under ten seconds. Epic kites are trimmed so that one bar will fit each size in either style, Screamer or Renegade. For a slower kite in wakestyle mode, use the 45cm setting. For a faster kite, set it to 55cm and megaloop that thing! The bar has a Push Away release system that will allow a safe exit for the rider in an emergency. This is a 4 line bar with the Easy Kill Switch System that will depower the kite if you bail during moves, hooked in or unhooked, and have the kite waiting to re-launch whenever you are ready.
As a rider, we all know that the little things can make the difference between an epic session and a frustrating session. That is why we created a joint venture with Blade kites to come up with what we think is the safest and easiest to use bar on the market.
The focal point of the bar assembly is the innovative Swivel Dome which combines the key features and functionality of the chicken loop and safety release into one piece. As opposed to other bars using metal pieces, the Swivel Dome is assembled using only tough plastic and flexible materials which won’t corrode or breakdown. Using hi-tech safety systems and an innovative grip design, the EPIC bar is guaranteed to be the safest and most comfortable accessory to your kiting experience.
SDR (swivel Dome Release):
This original
feature requires even less force to operate. The mechanism will unleash
weights ranging from 54kg to 400kg with the same level of minimal
effort. Once it is activated, it remains completely intact so no pieces
are in danger of getting lost.
Swivel:
Makes any post kite loop line tangle so easy to straighten out that you won’t even notice it until afterwards.
Safety Ring:
Important safety measure to protect
both the rider and your equipment by keeping you attached whenever the
swivel dome release is activated. On 5-line while on the 4-line
arrangements it connects to one of the depower lines. In both setups,
the rider can be reassured that the kite will lose all power
immediately.
Perploop System:
Very nice for riders who can’t get
freestyle tricks off their mind, this advanced system prevents chicken
loop twists during unhooked moves. Not to be forgotten, the flexible
Chicken Loop will take it easy on fingers when returning to a hooked-in
position

To do so, the Kahoona v3 is made with new, specially developed high performance materials and improved profiling which have energized its performance.
When wave riding, the Kahoona V3 serves up its best attributes, combining incredible downwind drift, precise steering response and huge depower, whether you’re going down the line or being chased by the white foam close out.
The Kahoona V3 allows you to perform the latest unhooked new school tricks. The effortless re-launch motivates you to learn new moves and gives supreme confidence to wave riders who simply have to be able to re-launch their kites before the next set comes in… it’s the perfect partner to use with any of our surfboards.
The construction of the Kahoona V3 is both bomb-proof and lightweight at the same time. The introduction of a new 3.5m size makes building the perfect quiver of kites for all riders and all conditions easier than ever before.

Explosive jumping power
Maximum hangtime
Cuben Fiber Leading Edge
Twister Techtm tuned steering response
Outstanding aerodynamic efficiency
The wait is finally over: the Nemesis HP is back. Back with all the unique design features and performance attributes that helped create its legendary reputation for performance, and its incredibly loyal customer following.
The HP v3 design improves upon all previous incarnations. Advancements in canopy shaping and a revised bridle design have allowed us to enhance stability and unhooked performance while removing all canopy battens. New material choices and aerodynamic refinements mean that when you pull the trigger, the HP v3 will rip you off the water with explosive vertical lift and keep you airborne with a hangtime sensation that is simply unique.
With our exclusive Cuben-equipped leading edge, the HP v3 delivers outstanding aerodynamic efficiency. A reduced diameter Cuben leading edge minimizes drag, giving increased lift and hangtime, faster flying and greater upwind ability. Cuben fiber’s unique Zero-stretch characteristics allow us to create a kite with a thinner and stiffer leading edge, providing a previously impossible mix of performance and stability.
With Twister Techtm integrated into the HP v3, you can use more of the canopy to generate effective turning force. Twister Techtm delivers faster turn initiation and tighter turning with reduced bar pressure, maximizing responsiveness and usability in low wind conditions and serving up insane freestyle potential when ridden overpowered.
The HP v3 benefits from our latest external EZ-Pump design, new-needle construction, Air-Aid Materials, hidden bridle patches, Cuben fibre and Twister Tech. It’s the most advanced HP we’ve made to date and it defies easy categorization.
