The Kite to Progress your Skills

The Competition Kite Made to Progress your Riding
Safety. Personal Progression. Ferrari-like handling. Switch. CLS Enhanced.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Safety
Ride more comfortably knowing that you have total safety at your fingertips. The patented Central Line System (CLS) 5th line offers the ultimate safety with on-demand complete depower. With over 3 years of development, the unique 2 attachment points on the leading edge give the kite increased stability and better performance. Due to its simplicity of design, Wipika?s CLS Pro Bar is the easiest and safest 5th line system on the market.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Personal Progression
Designed to help intermediate riders in personal riding progression, the Indy is a high performance, moderate to high aspect, competition level kite. Thinking of learning kite loops or handlepasses? Do it now. The Indy will allow you to comfortably learn new tricks. The Indy?s new unique canopy construction creates a forgiving and soft feel at the bar, which makes attempting new tricks easier. Fitted with the all-new CLS Fulcrum points, you can crash your kite a lot more with greater confidence.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ferrari-Like Handling
Soft feel, fast turning, and huge depower, the Indy canopy profiles aren't the standard type. For big powered tricks, the new profile causes the kite to accelerate out of the window faster. With wake-style tricks, the Indy and CLS create greater charging power in the water and light pull when released. For softer bar passes, the CLS 5th line system directs the Indy further upwind.
Higher aspect means more of the canopy stalling during turns, for less aggressive kiteloop power. The new wingtip profiles accelerate the wingtips around turns, unlike other kite models, which hold back in turns and drag downwind. The Indy?s huge depower handles monster gusts with fluidity. The curved wingtips create a soft power output giving you an effortless feeling during strong gusts.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CLS Enhanced
Crash your kite and get back up quickly with the Central Line System (CLS). The CLS softens the kite?s pull during powered maneuvers and enables the kite to relaunch quickly, so you can feel confident trying more tricks. The all-new fulcrum attachment points are the strongest in the industry and are designed to take beatings. Go ahead, try new powered moves, crash your kite: the Indy is ready. The Indy has been tested over a longer period of time than almost any kite available. This means your new kite's high-performance characteristics are proven to last. Like 4 line? 5 Line? Can?t decide? The Indy flies well in 4 or 5 line configuration and can be easily adapted to suit any style.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SWITCH Personalize the flying style of your kite with the all-new Switch feature. Using the new curved wingtip and 3 front line attachment points you can change among three flying style options.
Advanced Construction Technology:
Curved Wingtips- Curved, inflatable wingtips help the edge of the kite roll off the water, aiding in relaunch. Inflatable wingtips also create a smoother ride and pack lighter.
Easy Pump System (EPS) with Valve Keys - Strut valves are fitted with balls to lock off for easy inflation and consistent air pressure. Deflate Valve Keys are sewn to the webbing for fast deflation. Valve Keys tuck away during use.
Fulcrum Reinforcing- CLS and front line attachments with Fulcrum reinforcements are specifically designed to take stresses from all angles, allowing the flying lines to pull safely in different directions.
Scuff Guard- New abrasion resistant materials in high wear areas. Feel comfortable dragging your kite across the parking lot if you wish.
Rigid Frame- By using integrated struts and profiles creating positive tension in the sail, the Indy?s frame is built like a skyscraper. A thin leading edge and flat arc combine to create a fast profile and unimaginable depower.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Wipika Special Features:
Reflex Strut-The Formula One wingtip of the kite world
Tech out: Struts have tail-end curvature on larger sized kites to create downward pressure on the trailing edge. This acts like the wing on a Formula One car, giving the kite extra stability.
Single Strut- Aerodynamic innovation
Conventional kite technology uses ?segmented struts? to create a curved profile. Single Struts use one-piece construction of the struts while maintaining a precise, shaped profile making the
struts light and durable.
Kitesaver Strip-Protect Your Loved Ones
A nylon strip is sewn onto the leading edge, protecting it from canopy tears. The kitesaver strip saves your leading edge and your wallet on repair jobs.
Pump Leash-Hands Free Pumping No more hanging on to the kite while pumping up, leave that to the pump leash. Pump with both hands, wave to friends or finish your drink.
Easy-Connect pigtails-Easier than tying your shoes Wipika pigtails and flying lines are matched so they can only be connected the correct way. Plus, they?re color-coded making it even easier to hook your lines up and go.
Direct Connect-Rig and Go
Wipika kites are ready to fly directly out of the bag. No bar rigging. Just connect the lines and go.

Designer?s notes:
?The Competition Kite?
Our testers had a field day taking the 13.5 meter kites out in all kinds of wind, never feeling overpowered. Test rider Nathan Johnson says ?The most depower of any Wipika kite ever and fast turning! I had the 8.5 out in 45 knot gusts yesterday!?
Designer Stephan Stieglair added, ?The Indy will be the competition kite. This kite rocks, outstanding performance in everything.?
What have these guys created? A kiteloop friend? Transition extraordinaire? Depower master? The smooth criminal? For aggressive free riders who enjoy smooth flying, passing the handle, and transitioning like an Olympic ice skater, this blend of superior response and variable flight characteristics makes the Indy the answer to your prayers.
