Kite Boarder R2F Fluor-Green 1.8 Crosskites VMCK1118

Description:

The CrossKites Boarder R2F 1.8 in Fluor-Green is a Ready‑to‑Fly trainer kite designed to make learning and practicing bar control fast, safe and fun. Built from durable ripstop canopy fabric with reinforced seams and a sturdy Dacron leading edge, the Boarder delivers a responsive feel and high turning speed that accelerates skill development for kitesurfers and recreational fliers alike. The included ergonomic kitebar and long 18 m lines allow precise steering—so you can even fly with one hand—while the compact pack and lightweight construction make transport and setup effortless. Its construction balances durability with lightness for consistent performance in light to moderate wind (approx. 2–5 Bft). The Boarder’s quick, predictable turning and reliable line strength make it an ideal tool for practising relaunches, edge control and bar technique before progressing to a full-size kitesurfing kite. Ready‑to‑Fly contents and straightforward tuning mean you can get on the field or beach and start training immediately.
