What Ocean Rodeo says
Using a carefully selected mix of Dacron and ripstop, we have created a super light yet rugged 3-strut air frame.
Although the Roam’s design remains familiar in Gen 3, the kite’s flying weight has been greatly reduced (weighing-in lighter than most single strut kites), improving its performance not just in light wind, but in all wind conditions.
The ultra light weight and deep foil profile in combination with a moderate arc provide for sharp, responsive turns, maximum drift, and the low-end hover sought out when freeride foiling, or drifting down-the-line on your surfboard.
With the Roam Gen 3, there is no longer a need to compromise on stability and wind range in favour of no struts.
