DETAILED DESCRIPTION
A new, softer canopy
The canopy of this new TRIGGER Brainchild features a new, softer material, first introduced on the BANDIT Brainchild. This new fabric makes the kite more forgiving and provides significantly improved secondary lift. It contributes to a more ample and longer hangtime, with a more progressive and controlled descent. Landings are noticeably softer.
Redesigned bridle geometry
The new bridle geometry further improves control and precision. The fixed bridle on one side offers increased stability and precision, especially when the kite is depowered, while the improved depower maintains excellent feedback in the back lines and very good handling.
Seven attachment points
An additional central attachment point brings the system to 7 attachment points. This reinforces the kite's structural stability and contributes to improved lift. It ensures efficient acceleration for clean take-offs and powerful jumps.
A harmonized range
The entire range has been harmonized to offer a consistent feel, with the same characteristics that make the TRIGGER what it is, across all sizes. Bar pressure is lighter, secondary lift is improved, and the kite remains easy to control throughout the wind range, whether fully powered or completely depowered.
The new TRIGGER Brainchild combines efficient lift, extended hangtime, and precise control in a coherent package. Every detail, from the softer canopy to the revised bridle geometry, contributes to a more comfortable and predictable kite. Riders of all levels gain the confidence to ride without restraint.
Proweld technology
PROWELD is a technology Ralf Grösel patented and developed himself. With PROWELD, segments are ultrasonically welded at a single point, then glued at the back to increase the structural stiffness of the joint. All Leading Edge segments are welded rather than sewn. This creates a stiffer frame with better structural integrity. This also saves weight and reduces tension on the bladder. The result is precise bar feedback and increased kite responsiveness, with a 25% increase in overall product torsional stiffness and a 15% weight saving compared to conventional seams.
Brainchild Materials and Eco Ink Printing
Brainchild uses innovative, cutting-edge, and very lightweight materials for the inflatable structure and canopy of its Kites. The canopy is 48% recycled and undyed. It is unbleached to be as eco-friendly as possible. Eco Ink digital printing uses only eco-solvent inks and four times less water than dyed fabrics. The Brainchild valve, with a single eco-responsible inflation point, ensures optimal airflow and fast inflation; a pump adapter is included in all Brainchild Kite bags. This technology is at the forefront of innovation.
