Airush – Lithium

The Airush Lithium V13 2023 is a fantastic all-around kite that provides hours of fun on the water. It’s easy to handle and feels lightweight on the bar, making it perfect for riders who prefer a relaxed cruising experience or those who are not as strong. The kite’s predictability makes it forgiving and gives riders a comfortable and familiar feeling. Airush has also put a lot of effort into ensuring a quick relaunch, which is evident in the wingtip shape. The angled wingtips prevent the kite from sticking to the water, making it easy to get back up in the air. The powerful three-strut design of the Lithium provides a massive wind range, allowing riders to sail longer and feel comfortable even in gusty conditions. The bridle design ensures that the kite maintains its steering characteristics, even when fully depowered. Additionally, the kite sits further forward in the wind window, making it easy to sail upwind. This kite is not only great for beginners but also offers experienced riders hours of enjoyment. Airush has improved the spring characteristics and hangtime this year, making it a great kite for jumping and progressing your skills. As for technical features, the Lithium V13 2023 has a new canopy made of D2 and Modulus Polyethylene Yarns, which is lighter and improves its wind range. The high-density fabric utilizes double-coated polyester yarns, providing additional protection against UV and wear. The leading edge is equipped with Airush bumpers to reduce wear and increase durability on rough surfaces. The kite can be adjusted from high bar pressure to low bar pressure at the tips, and the bridle system is 10% shorter, resulting in faster turning and overall de-power. The pulleys are made of durable Zytel material to prevent wear and tear. The SPS valve allows for quick inflation and deflation, getting you on the water as soon as possible. Kevlar is strategically placed in critical areas to protect against wear while minimizing weight. Overall, the Airush Lithium V13 2023 is the perfect all-around kite for both beginners and experienced kiteboarders. If you want to make rapid progress, this is the best kite for you!
