Royal Kiteboarding draws back the curtain for its latest creation, the 2011 Solo. The new Solo has C-kite strength and speed in style and design. You won’t be disappointed.
The SOLO is the kite with the narrowest Leading Edge arc. Because of this, it is the most reactive, fastest turning and best at flying un-hooked kite. We suggest it to riders who love to do tricks un-hooked and/or a type of riding that requires the most reactive and aggressive kite.
The 2010 Solo astonished everyone: powerful, fast, reactive, pully-free and direct attachments to the trailing edge like a real C-kite.
Ready for the trigger to be pulled, this kite reacts to a rider’s impulses. The closed arch is part of the design and with only four struts it maintains a lofty feel with a better capacity to fly.
The 2010 Solo was a multifunctional kite: freestyle, wake style and even wave. All this goodness has been shown by the numerous victories of rider Paulino Pereira who is Portugal’s national champion in freestyle.
This year we have made changes to create a kite that will accomplish even more by giving it a more pronounced C-shape in outline and feel, leaving the ‘XTEra’ the arduous task of being the all-around kite. The new 2011 Solo that will be arriving to the market shortly will be the real bomb, not only from the point of view of its construction, but also in design and presentation.
Royal always promotes stylish and straightforward products. This easy loading kite bag is spacious and can be worn like a satchel or a backpack. Thanks to the openings at the base of the bag the kite can dry while contained and release any sand that was picked up on the beach. The design of this bag avoids any tearing or ripping to kite by using a drawstring sack and outside buckles. Inside there is a pocket for storing something small like a T-shirt, wetsuit, water bottle or a towel.

Royal Elite Bar
Secure, but also practical and comfortable. Adjustable width, sturdy and with all adjustments in close range, everything in the new Royal Elite Bar is simple and works!
A bar is definitely one of the most important elements because of its part in managing the control and safety of a kite. With just the slightest touch it reacts. We have listened to the feedback to bring to you a bar that is super easy to use, but durable, comfortable and with great security. The Elite Bar is distinguished for being clean and elegant; it’s covered with a soft, grooved and long-lasting EVA covering that is non-slip to offer great grip.
The depower strap is situated over the bar and the release system can be activated with a simple push-out motion that unhooks the loop, immediately letting loose the kite from your harness. To re-hook the loop is very simple.
A central stopper ball and two mini handles on the back lines adds to the safety system as well as two floaters to keep the bar on the surface. Another distinctive trait of the Elite Bar is its dimensions: in this one bar there is the ability to use it as two different sizes, like a 55cm bar for larger sized kites and 45cm bar for the smaller kites.
