Hit the Gas.
Our aim was to make the fastest parawing with the best upwind performance on the market. Illustrated by Axel Mazella’s ground-breaking success with the Afterburner at the Défi Wing 2026 – we’ve pushed our design programme, our riders and our factory to the limits.
High-Aspect Design for Ultimate Upwind Performance
The Afterburner kills the need to coordinate a downwind vehicle. Just start your session at your finishing point, hammer upwind with ease, then make the biggest downwind run possible – knowing your own car is parked up with a cold beer in the cooler, ready and waiting.
Huge Wind Range
The low end performance is solid, similar to the Pocket Rocket V2 – but at the top end the Afterburner is in a league of its own. As it loads up on power, the leading edge and sail remains absolutely solid, driving cleanly forward in the window, allowing you to push as hard as you like against your foil to gain more and more speed. The upwind gains are almost automatic.
Easiest Tacking Ever
Thanks to the ultra-smooth overhead lift and forward drive, tacking is the easiest it’s ever been. The Afterburner is designed for riders who are committed to freeriding without their parawing for as long as possible. It stashes well if you’re practiced in the technique, but the higher rib count and bridle complexity mean it rewards riders who prioritise long runs over rapid stash-and-redeploy sessions.
“Using the 4.3m Afterburner with a 625 race foil definitely gave me the feeling of kiting with efficient race gear. I was riding full power all around the bay. Super fun. The smaller designs should be totally insane!”
– Johnny Heineken, Ozone Ambassador & Multiple Kite Race World Champion

Wind range is indicative only based on an average rider weight of 80 kg. Actual range will vary based on rider skill level and type of board/foil used.
Canopy Design
- Single surface design philosophy pushed to the next performance level
- High aspect-ratio gives more forward drive – greater speed and upwind performance
- Increased cell count with fully supported rib structure for perfect load spread and ultra clean canopy
- Lightweight tabs reduce weight, bulk and drag
Aerodynamic Performance
- Clean and rock-solid leading edge even at maximum load
- Minimal canopy flap when sheeted out – reduced drag, higher depower efficiency
- Designed for hooked-in harness riding – each set includes a 25 cm fixed loop harness line attached to the bar
Bridle Layout
- Bridle line length balanced between maximum aerodynamic performance and good stashability
- Thinner Kevlar lines on upper level – reduced drag
- Mid level and risers: thicker, stiffer lines (as on Pocket Rocket V2 and PowerPack) – rash- & tangle-free for excellent stash and redeployment
- V-shrink tabs for low end power
Monobloc Carbon Control Bar
- Monobloc carbon bar with textured EVA grip
- Ultra light weight: only 90 grams
- 35 cm long – ideal balance for easy stashing and wing control
- Index finger front overhang for increased comfort and de-power control
- A-line protection nub acts as a stopper between index and middle fingers
- Thumb resting spot on bar end for enhanced comfort and feel
