BIG MAMA.Jonesin' for wind but there is barely a breeze. Suddenly you feel a slight stir. Not quite enough for your usual kites. No worries, you have someone in your gang that will take care of you in this light-wind challenge... enter BIG MAMA. Grab her, pump her up, and ride her hard. Like any true matriarch in a family, Big Mama may not be the fastest in the gang, but definitely has a lot of pull. This girl works it when there is hardly a breath of wind. Although she is the head of the Rabbit Gang, Big Mama bends to your will with her super-fast reaction time and smooth turns. The perfect kite for lighter winds or bigger riders. She pulls like a truck and turns like a sports car. Don't let the name fool you - Big Mama is a lightweight who can hold her own. No matter what your riding style may be, mellow free riding or aggressive wake-style, she can handle it all. Who says big girls can't dance? BIG MAMA time! QUICK TURNING When the wind is lighter, the kite needs to move faster to generate more power. Both beginners and advanced riders appreciate this skill. You're walking on water while they're kicking up dust; cause BIG MAMA is a super stable, easy and fast kite. UPWIND SAILING No need to explain how important it is to sail upwind when wind conditions are light at the spot. And if that can be done with only one hand on the bar, when others are losing all their energy to stay in the same place, then the word domination is the right way to describe BIG MAMA's behavior with the wind. JUMPING Where is the real fun? We all know it is catching air! No matter if you can already boost to 60 feet or you're still working on jumping over surfboards. What matters is the feeling. The key is the feeling you are flying. Feel that BIG MAMA attitude. Hold the edge, pop the kite and blaaaam! A good BIG MAMA never lets you down. A true wakestyle sister! DIRECT AND LIGHT FEEL BIG MAMA like all other Rabbits was designed to be steered with the direct feel of the bar that lets the rider control the kite with great precision and instant reaction. In the air, BIG MAMA feels very solid and stable which is the effect of her well-engineered construction. All the above, plus light pressure on the bar, in both hooked and unhooked positions makes this kite so sweet! POWER CONTROL AND RABBIT BAR BIG MAMA is a powerful kite but its energy can be controlled very well and even shut down immediately when needed. Instant and quick depower is a great skill of this kite, and as soon as the rider lets go of the bar, traction of BIG MAMA stops. BIG MAMA, like all RABBITS, should be used with the original RABBIT BAR that was designed very precisely to match the characteristics of these kites. Together, they work precisely and provide a very wide range and depower without any complicated features. Pure simplicity that let's you explore your limits with confidence. RABBIT AUTOMATIC RELAUNCH In order to provide maximum comfort and confidence, all RABBITS re-launch almost automatically. Because of their round shape, when they fall in the water they have a tendency to land on their sides and travel to the edge of the window, re-launching with very little effort from the pilot. And in the event that the kite crashes and submerges the leading edge, a firm pull by the pilot on one of the back lines will turn RABBIT around where it will re-launch again, without swimming to it! RABBIT BAR is equipped with specially coated leader lines with relaunch balls on steering lines that make the process very fast and easy on the hands. RABBIT USER MANUAL By their definition, RABBITS are all round wake style kites. But as every kite boarder has his own style, it is important to let him tune-up his kite to accommodate those unique preferences. Some riders prefer a bit firmer pressure on the bar, some need to have more vertical lift, some would appreciate downwind sailing more than hang time. Accommodating those differences would be very easy, with RABBIT USER MANUAL. Every rider can have full influence on how his RABBIT is going to act. These options are for the advanced rider, and the kite needs to be ridden first on the factory set-up for some time. After that every pilot will be able to tune his own RABBIT for his needs as necessary. 3 STRUT FRAMEWORK RABBITS have a 3 strut Construction and that makes them really different from other kites. They are faster, more responsive, and lighter-weight but also very solid and powerful due to their high quality, heavy-cloth framework. FABRICS AND STITCHING To be the best, BIG MAMA and her bros from RABBIT GANG are built only with the highest quality fabrics that are available on the market. The canopy of the kite is made with the very light and super durable rip-stop SPI cloth from Teijin, Japan – world undisputable leader of the high performance rip-stop fabrics. Framework construction panels, such as LE, struts and tips, are built with polyester heavy cloth made by Dimension Polyant, Germany. No other material in the modern wind-industry is so resistant, stiff and basically bulletproof, yet still very light and long-lasting as this one is. All panels are sewn according to craft-secrets of the finest sail-making artists, using only certified threads and master sewing techniques in order to create very strong but flexible construction that will survive windiest gales and storms. REINFORCEMENTS To protect seams well against the hard objects that every kite normally comes in contact with, and which after some time cause ugly and dangerous seam tearing, RABBITS are equipped with multiple reinforcements of LE at the edges and on the tips. Those extra features will protect your kite well and make it look good even after seasons of hard use. BRIDLES To fly in its most efficient location in the window during all courses, RABBIT is equipped with an auto-positioning bridle, which make the kite naturally find its sweet spot in the sky. As BIG MAMA is a big and powerful kite, its front bridle is connected to the kite on 3 tow points, but still the length of the bridles is really minimized in order to be safe from any tangles in waves or during re-launches. Back lines are connected directly to the kite’s tip with a single point connection in order to allow for quick reaction of the steering lines. All bridles are made with highest quality Dyneema rope from Samson, USA. And the mini-pulley on the front bridle comes from Ronstan Pulleys, Australia. TOW-POINTS Great power of Rabbits is transmitted to the rider through the bar and the flying lines, but the attachment points where flying lines and bridles are connected to the kite are also very important areas, where great forces are being generated. Those points on Rabbits are well engineered so even when the strongest gusts hit the canopy, nothing will get damaged. With triple layer sandwich construction and using extra strength polyester webbing, the rider can be sure the attachment points on Rabbits are very solid. INFLATION With only 3 struts to inflate, RABBITS don’t need any heavy and in the long run, very dangerous one pump system. The struts are equipped with sensitive locking valves that will keep constant pressure inside of the strut bladders. For deflation, each valve has its deflating stick to be put inside of the valve for strut deflation. LE is equipped with a locking valve for inflation and big dump valve for fast kite packing. RABBITS are designed to be pumped firmly and that allows them to show their real nature. PACKAGE CONTENT KITE - BIG MAMA kite
