Introducing the new Hadlow Pro
The new 09 signature model Hadlow Pro has been designed specifically for the needs of the world champion PKRA kitesurfer Aaron Hadlow. We've worked tirelessly over the past year - tweaking, tuning and improving the 08 AHPRO design, to improve the kites performance which is already likened to an F1 car.

  Performance enhancement
The performance enhancement seen with the new 09 design is impressive. Aaron specifically wanted us to improve the larger kites ability to drive quickly to the top of the window during the kiteloop. This has been achieved, the new kite races to the top of the window enabling massive powered driving megaloop and with predictable responsive control and soft landing.

  Fitter, faster and leaner
We've also improved the kites re-launch ability, reduced the weight, made the kite stronger and improved the bar feedback. You know where the kite is and what it is doing at any given time. These improvements have helped Aaron achieve what no kitesurfer has ever done before; win five consecutive PKRA world titles and become the world's undisputed best freestyle kiteboarder.

  The choice for the advanced freestyle rider
The new AH Pro is the kite of choice for the advanced freestyle rider who is looking to push their level of riding and are looking for a kite that will not hold them back, they're designed for the fearless and the brave - have you got what it takes?!

  Sizes and set up options
The new HadlowPro is available in February 09, in the same five sizes that Aaron has in his quiver (5.5m, 7m, 9m, 11m and 13m). Bar setup comes complete with both set up options: a 5-line (default) and the HadlowPro 4-line setup* - the configuration that Aaron uses day-to-day.

Performance features
6-strut design
The AH Pro strut design has been modified. The addition of an extra strut has seen the kites incredible performance leap forward an extra notch. The benefit of the additional strut is that is supports the profile better to help it drive through kite loops. It also helps to improve the feedback you get from the bar as the kite has a more direct feel - this direct feel enables the you to instinctively feel what the kite is doing and where it is in the sky.

Profile and aerofoil modification
Aaron loved the powered fast kite loop ability that already existed with his smaller 7m and wanted this performance across the range. Significant improvements have been achieved by designing a new aerofoil shape. The new AH PRO 9m and 11m kites race to the top of the window, delivering a punchy drive that is required for Aaron's powered riding style.

Ultra-thin Leading Edge (LE) Tube
Increases the speed through the window and therefore the maneuverability of the kite.

Supported LE Tube
Whether in HadlowPro 4-line mode or the standard 5-line mode, the ultra-thin LE is supported in the centre section by two lines. This helps to maintain the correct LE shape and increase kite power production. When in 4-line mode the effect is even more pronounced. The two four meter extensions are attached to the front lines which means the tow point of the kite is less effected when the kite is loaded up, thereby keeping the grunt in the kite which is required for Aaron's signature powered wakestyle moves.

Inflatable wingtip struts
Getting the kite off the water fast is important to Aaron. In a seven minute PKRA heat Aaron regularly pulls an incredible 20+ tricks! If he drops his kite it's vital that he can get it off the water fast. The Hadlow pros have oversized wingtips to aid the kite's fast turning ability and a narrow front tube for fast kite speed. These can mean that the kite can be tricky to launch especially in rough conditions. To help the kite relaunch the new design incorporates inflatable wingtip batons across the whole range. The smaller sizes 5.5, 7, 9, retain optional rigid baton, to provide direct
turning response.

New XS size 5.5m
During the past year the AH PRO has been the kite of choice for the world best junior kitesurfers. With large numbers of young teens ripping they have all asked whether a smaller size kite would be possible. We now have a 5.5m, perfect for lighter, younger riders and women. As you'd expect the 5.5 is incredibly fast and powerful. The response we've had from riders whilst testing this new size has been incredible. Of course this new size can also be used in extreme winds by the very experienced - 40knot riding is a reality.

BAR Features

Ultimate Grip
For assured handlepassing.

Soft-Section Bar-ends
For handlepass comfort.

PU Tubing Centre Line
Fits into the bar's centre hole tightly providing you with a connected feel to the kite. The PU tubing is also comfortable when holding the centre line between your fingers, great for holding the bar when performing wakestyle tricks.

Clean Bar Setup
The bar has been designed to be as clean as possible - having nothing to tangle minimises the chance of anything going wrong in a minute heat.

Leader Line Floats
Protect your hands and make the bar easy to find after stacking it!

"Unhook" Chicken Loop
Included with the bar so you can hook in and out easier with one hand. A stiff section between the bottom of the centre line and the start of the chicken loop makes hooking in and out even simpler. The chicken loop is also equipped with a swivel so you can unspin the front lines quickly whilst riding.
