FOIL | FREERIDE | LIGHT WIND | ALL-ROUND
Sizes: 4 | 6 | 9 | 12 m2
Close your eyes and imagine… you arrive on a beach with a little bag that weighs less than the bottle
of water you carry. You turn your head into the wind and wonder if the anemometer would even
reach 7 knots. You remove the 12m from its tiny pouch and without as much as a single stroke of a
pump, you are ready for an unforgettable ride on mirror-smooth waters. You distance yourself from
the shore without even looking at your kite - you can literally feel its stability and reliability. The wind
is gusty and your kite floats in the water for several, long minutes. But you don’t worry - for you know
that it will never fill up with water and will relaunch with ease.
Welcome to another dimension – the dimension of the MARABOU!
The MARABOU is the first-ever single-surface kite on the market, specially developed for use on
water!
KEY FEATURES
Single-surface kite with closed-cell leading edge construction
Innovative construction: 70% of the surface are unsinkable
Minimal size and super lightweight
Outstanding size-to-power ratio
Excellent stability, depower and manoeuvrability
Easy relaunch
High accessibility and ease of use
Exceptional light wind performance
The hybrid single-surface and closed-cells construction of the MARABOU makes you enter a new
dimension. Whether on a foil board, twintip or surfboard, you’ll benefit from an exceptionally small
and light kite that generates extraordinary power. Equipped with incredible stability, the MARABOU
is an intuitive and easy-to-use foil kite.
Just like the SHAMAN 1 and 2, the MARABOU was designed by the talented Swiss designer Olivier
Nef. His experience in the development of single-surface paragliders paired with the passion of our
team riders has allowed us to develop this kite with its innovative construction.
