Who is this for?

The Drifter Apex is for the rider looking for the ultimate in surf kite design, or a fun recreational kite foiling option that goes downwind with ease thanks to its incredible slack-line drift.

For kiters looking to get into surf kiting, the Drifter Apex provides industry-leading bar feel and maneuverability, allowing the rider to focus on the board and the waves. Those same characteristics give advanced surf riders the confidence to take their kite out in a wider range of conditions or push their strapless freestyle riding.

How does it compare?

Versus Standard Moto Apex:

While the Moto Apex is an all-round kite, it sits further forward in the wind window, making it less suited to slack-line drift where you can park the kite and ride towards it. For strapless tricks, the Drifter has less aggressive vertical pull, allowing you to keep the board on your feet and maintain greater control.

Who is this for?

The Switchblade Design Works is for the rider who seeks increased performance in a confidence inspiring design.

Ideal for the freeride twintip kiter, who has ambitions to take their jumping to a new level, riding more powered up, jumping with more consistency. This rider is looking for a kite that helps them push harder and progress to new levels without punishing small mistakes.

For kiters who already know and trust the Switchblades unmatched flying qualities and feel, the full Aluula frame of the Switchblade adds a further level of responsiveness, efficiency and high end control.

The introduction of the Vert-X Bridle provides even more choice in how the kite flies, allowing riders to choose between the Unify High-Y or Low-V configuration to fine tune handling characteristics and overall ride feel.

How does it compare?

Versus Standard Switchblade:

The Design Works version maintains the Switchblade DNA with a focus on stability, wind range, easy jumping, and predictable landings. But the full Aluula frame adds a lighter, stiffer, more responsive feel, leading to better efficiency, faster reaction, and improved performance at both the low and high ends of the wind range.

Versus Nitro / Apex Nitro:

The Nitro may reward expert riders with higher peak performance when perfectly timed, but it requires more precise technique to extract it. The Switchblade Design Works is the ideal choice for most riders who want to jump higher more consistently and land with more control. It is is step closer to the high performance big air area, while remaining easier and more forgiving.

Versus Moto Apex:

The 3 strut Moto Apex is lighter, and very versatile, providing better value for riders who who ride in different styles and conditions. The Switchblade Design Works is for the true twin-tip freerider who wants more structure, increased wind range, better support when overpowered and jumping.

Versus Skillit

The S-Quad features a slightly straighter rail than the Skillit, combined with a pulled-in nose to allow for true rail-to-rail turns. The addition of footstrap inserts also makes the S-Quad the board of choice for strapped surf riding.

Versus Previous S-Quad

The new S-Quad is an all-new design incorporating key updates, including full carbon construction, a one-piece deck pad and DSV bottom design. This is the next generation of pure surfboard performance.
