2009 Best Kahoona Delta Kite
We've heard some people calling the Best Kahoona a beginner kite. What!?!
Yes, its an easy kite to use for learning, but it's also a great wakestyle and
wave kite for Int and Adv riders as well. And don't let the "09 number fool you.
The Kahoona is a "New / Current Model Kite".
The 010 version is not due until March of Next year.

2009 Kahoona
Best Kiteboarding is proud to announce the latest addition to
its 2009 kite line up.
The new Kahoona is the perfect choice for every rider looking for a super
stable, easy-to-rig,
easy-to-fly kite. A reduced aspect-ratio and swept
leading edge make the Kahoona Best's
quickest relaunching kite; it is the perfect kite choice for
beginners and intermediate riders
looking to maximize their progress every session.
A new Redline Safety System delivers instant
safety-depower whenever you push the QR or
drop the bar. With short bridles and only four
flying lines, there is nothing to wrap around the kite should
you roll it while relaunching. The Redline Safety System allows you to
forget about the kite and concentrate on your riding.
Our Quad-Strut swept-tip design helps minimize drag for
faster, easier turning helping to improve low wind ability. Responsive
handling, great downwind drift, and auto-relaunch combine to help
make the Kahoona the most evolved big-wave surf kite we've ever made.
A new VP2 mini-bridle provides the Kahoona with a large wind range and
helps maximize stability in all riding conditions, especially when
riding unhooked or overpowered. Single point connections for front and
rear flying lines simplify your rigging options and make the
Kahoona incredibly quick and simple to set-up even for novice riders.
The Kahoona's auto-relaunch, ease of set-up, large wind range and
reliable safety will help make you progress faster than you thought was
possible. It comes loaded with ease of use and safety features that are
out of this world, at a surprisingly down to earth price.
Kahoona: "Progression in every session."
Kahoona Sizes and Wind Range
The Kahoona is available in 4 sizes
9.5m, 11.5m , 13.5m
Stating wind ranging is tricky and thus you'll
constantly hear .. " it depends".
The reason is there are soooo many variables. In my personal
testing, I would agree
with the above chart. 9.5m ( 15 knots and up ) IF I'm riding
my small twin-tip board.
IF I'm riding my 5'11 surfboard, or short wide skimboard, then I'll
totally happy in on 12 knots
on the same kite.

Kahoona Color Options

Turquiose
Golden-Yellow
White
Burgundy
Red
Green
These are technically the colors, but... " it depends"
: ) on what colors are available this week. Maybe only Red
and Yellow. Maybe only Burgundy, or Turquiose.
My friend Daryl loves to say " We have EVERY color in-stock except the
color you want " : )
Yup.. he's a funny guy.
Trying to match your belt with your shoes is understandable since
they're only less than a meter apart. But "your kite! ? "
It's going to be over 22 meters away from you. We promise,
No one will rag on you for having a kite not matching your shorts.. : )
Best RED LINE Control Bar
The Kahoona has it's own control bar with a different set-up than the
other Best Bars.
Two depower lines.
One line (heavier white standard center line ) runs up connecting to the trim strap, and the second
line (The Red one ) paralells the white line, but bypasses the the
trim strap and ends
at the swival "Y" where the 2 front "flying lines" begin.
