a. Prima Donna
The 6th generation of the legendary freestyler has been revised and is increasing an user base of wave & freeriders. The pure performance-oriented
“Modern C-shape” we refined in all sizes, applied only the richest fabrics only to save weight and enhance durability. The strictly applied „Floating Bat-
ten Technology“ and „Perfect Round Arc Shape“ allow a wind-adapted profile. The rider benefits from a larger wind range of its kite and smoother and
secure handling even in gusty conditions. Use of highest industry quality in materials such as Teijin TM for the canopy and Polyant Dimension TM for any
Dacron area, double seams, durable Kevlar - Cordura reinforcement combined with high end and sustainable JN manufacturing. Developed only by JN,
the „Floating Batten Technology“ (FBT since 2003)” allows the profile to adjust itself to current winds and gusts, extends the wind range and smooths the
handling. The „Perfect Round Arc Shape”, possible only thanks to our continuously further developed hard- and software, reduces performance-inhibiting
air turbulence and stabilises your kite at all windspeeds. The well balanced construction of Prima Donna helps you e.g. when riding onshore conditions or
doing radical jumps by a friendly lee-ward drifting and still turn able kite whenever lines have less tension. Kite profiles, individually adapted to the respec-
tive wind speed, are making each kite size unique and specifically designed for its range. Prima Donna is offered in a complete size range, which makes it
easier for all disciplines, genders and weight of riders to tailor their perfect quiver.
Sizes:
6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 m2
Characteristics:
Fast flying speed, mid bar pressure, lots of punch for powerful unhooked wakestyle moves, precise, direct steering combined with balan-
ced intuitive feedback, high wind performance like never before, impressive low wind performance, enormous lift and hangtime, instant 5th line safety,
simple relaunch
Features:
„Perfect Round Arc Shape“ of all Leading Edge Segments. Less stiches and no kinks, with a thinner Leading Edge, with which we achieve minimal
aerodynamic resistance; The „Floating Batten Technology“ (FBT), invented by JN, gives the kite straight and drag-free struts, which enhance stability and
reduce weight; With its large rigid wingtips, the kite is fast turning but comes with two steering line hang points, giving you the option of a slower (outside)
or faster (inside) turning speed; high end manufacturing by double and taped seams; strong reinforcement , best industry materials only: TeijinTM canopy
fabric and Polyant DimensionTM Dacron fabric, kevlar at critical points for enhanced durability; stitched in graphic design to save weight; sophisticated 5
strut construction; single point inflation; simple to service; JN Art Design.
b. Wild Thing Revival
With new Full 3D- Hybrid-Shape, we concentrate on more Wild Thing than ever before: Fast turningspeed, powerful lift and excellent performance with
a huge windrange.The Wild Thing profits from the rich innovative JN features, like „Perfect Round Arc Shape“ combined with the best available material
choice in the industry. We accept no compromises in quality. To answer the low wind needs with a performance there are the sizes 12, 14 and 16.5 m².
The sizes 6, 8 and 10 m² are covering a huge windrange and provide ecxellent strong wind performance. Easy four line bridle kite with open C-shape, or
5-line Setup, offers the benefits of a fast, responsive performance weapon when you need it, and has the power for Bigairs or powerful wakestyle moves.
The Wild Thing is a steady partner for waves as well. Also with slack on the lines the kite is fast turning and drifting balanced. The hig endsped inspires all
freeriders.
Sizes:
6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16.5 m2
Characteristics:
With the Wild Thing Revival you get a sportive, fast turning, well balanced modern 4 with optional 5 line kite concept serving freestyle
and freeride in equal measure.
Simple 4-line leading edge bridle, instant 4 line relaunch with virtual 5th line. Enhanced low wind performance and extended wind range by an optimized
effective area with proven canopy design from Michael Nesler. The Wild Thing Revival offers good upwind capability, easy access to high jumps, constant
pop and hang time, most direct and responsive steering, fast turning thanks to the JN canopy-tip construction.
Features:
„Perfect Round Arc Shape“ of all Leading Edge Segments. Less stiches and no kinks, with a thinner Leading Edge, with which we achieve minimal
aerodynamic resistance; Geometric and aerodynamic wing twist, a thinner leading edge and low-volume-struts, deliver in combination with the finely tuned
bridle a very smooth handling, and with this concept the maximum flight performance; With its large rigid wingtips, the kite is fast turning but comes with
3 steering line hang points, giving you the option of a slower (outside) or faster (inside) turning speed; high end manufacturing by double and taped seams;
strong reinforcement , best industry materials only: TeijinTM canopy fabric and Polyant DimensionTM Dacron fabric, kevlar at critical points for enhanced
durability; stitched in graphic design to save weight; sophisticated 5 strut construction; single point inflation; simple to service; JN Art Design.
c. Mr. Fantastic
The 3rd generation will convince you with a typical JN sportive performance. Thanks to a very powerful kite surface, in Full 3D-Concave-Shape, the Mr.
Fantastic covers a wide wind range and offers easy handling by a simple and refined 4-line set up. The all purpose kite offers the necessary characteristics
to all stages of rider skills and an On/Off power generation for beginners, tight turns and a stable well balanced flying character for more experienced
freeriders and wave riders. Mr Fantastic is shaped with a „swept back“ leading edge, which allows the rider to adjust the angle of approach as with other
high depower kites, but without the loss of direct steering. The JN specific canopy to tip construction gives the kite a very responsive and direct character
combined with moderate bar pressure. The simple bridles support, the increased angle of approach and additionally enhance the kite’s stability while of-
fering a wide wind range.
Sizes:
4.5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16 m2
Characteristics:
Increased wind range, more depower through a perfectly adapted bridle setup, enhanced low wind performance, by an optimized effec-
tive area, suits everyone, from beginner to professional through its easy handling, high jumps with great floaty hangtime, direct and responsive steering.
The Mr. Fantastic is suitable for all conditions and skills thanks to great upwind performance, easy instant 4 line relaunch, single front line safety
Features:
New JN Full 3D-Concave-Shape; With its large rigid wingtips, the kite is fast turning but comes with 2 steering line hang points, giving you the
option of a slower (outside) or faster (inside) turning speed; high end manufacturing by double and taped seams; strong reinforcement , best industry
materials only: TeijinTM canopy fabric and Polyant DimensionTM Dacron fabric, kevlar at critical points for enhanced durability; stitched in graphic design
