It’s the best all-around sport kite money can buy, so if it’s not broken don’t fix it? To heck with that - we gave the legendary Quantum an upgrade anyway! The goal was to keep everything pilots love about the classic Quantum while adding even more flight performance, some sweet details to make it easier to use, and fun new graphics and colors just to freshen things up.
We’ve tweaked the wing shape to give it even better tracking and additional stability, making it easier to keep aloft in light winds without pro-level skills.
We made a subtle change to the bridle geometry and added a super-quick, one-step bridle adjustment at the center T so it’s a cinch to set your kite for different winds.
We upgraded the bag to a new design that lets you roll it up and clip to a belt loop while you fly - no more bags blowing down the beach in the wind. An external pouch for your lineset keeps it from getting tangled. In a hurry to get off the beach? A clever hidden extension sleeve pops out if you want to store your kite full-length without folding the leading edges.
Ready to replace a well-loved older Quantum? The Quantum 2.0 keeps the same frame geometry, carbon rods and fittings so it’s backward compatible!
Flies beautifully with the perfect balance of pull and controllability in an impressively wide wind range from light to strong winds. Comes ready to fly with everything you need: Dyneema flying lines, winder, flight straps and a nice travel sleeve that protects the folded kite at full or half length.
If you really want to get noticed, clip on a 75-foot tube tail (sold separately) and trace your flight path with eye catching calligraphy that’s sure to attract a crowd!

- Kinetic dissipator with elastic shock cord absorbs energy in a crash to protect you from damaging your kite’s frame.
- Quick-adjust bridle lets you fine tune your kite for different wind conditions and flying styles with a single adjustment.
- Excellent lifting ability makes it possible to lift even our biggest, longest tails so you can put on a show stopping performance wherever you fly.
