Technical Features

Durable single-skin design

Built with our trusted TX-Light fabric, the kite is designed to withstand the rigors of snowkiting in rugged conditions. Weighing only 33g/m², it remains light enough for long treks yet durable enough to endure abrasion from snow, ice, and rocks. The DLX+ fabric on the leading edge adds extra protection where it’s needed most.

B-Safe system for self-landing

Safety in remote areas is crucial. The B-Safe system allows for smooth self-landing and quick release, making it perfect for solo adventurers who need reliable options for taking breaks or handling emergencies. The kite flags out immediately, making it easy to pack away when the wind drops, or conditions change rapidly.

Hybrid wingtip technology

Specially designed for the backcountry, the self-inflating wingtips feature mesh-protected openings to block snow and dirt. The enhanced aerodynamics ensure tighter, more controlled turns while maintaining constant pull, which is ideal for navigating steep terrain.

Compact for easy packing

The PEAK’s ultra-compact pack size allows you to carry it effortlessly in your backpack, making it ideal for mountaineers and snowkiters who need to travel light over long distances. You can easily pack multiple kites to be ready for any wind conditions.

Performance Features

Efficient depower for your safety

In the unpredictable conditions of high altitudes, safety is paramount. The PEAK’s rapid depower capability lets you control speed and power instantly, providing you with the confidence to manage challenging weather or steep descents.

Optimized for alpine environment

The PEAK’s single-skin design ensures exceptional lift and stability even in the light, variable winds typical of alpine environments. Whether navigating steep slopes or gliding across frozen plains, the kite delivers steady pull and smooth handling.

PEAK – Specialized for alpine explorations

Whether you are traversing snowy ridges, kite-touring across vast mountain ranges, or simply looking for efficient, lightweight gear to accompany you on your high-altitude expeditions, the PEAK is engineered to meet the demands of serious adventurers. Its compact size, robust materials, and dependable safety features make it an essential tool for anyone venturing into remote, snow-covered landscapes.

Refine your kiting skills

The PEAK is an excellent tool for developing and refining your kiting skills. Its responsive handling, efficient depower, and superior stability make it ideal for practicing kite control. The lightweight, single-skin design allows for smooth and predictable performance, even in light winds, helping you build confidence as you progress.

The wind range chart is to be used as a point of reference. It is based on a rider who weighs around 75kg (165lbs.) Actual use will vary depending on your weight, skill level, board size/type (twintip or hydrofoil) and wind conditions on water or land. When choosing a kite size, always use common sense and repeatedly choose a smaller size if you are not sure, especially when using the kite on land.

Which technical changes have been made?

Short Bridle and Mixer to decrease drag and improve the B-Safe System

Weight savings are always a plus, but reducing line drag gives you more power and improved light wind capabilities. The shorter bridle lines prevent the B-Safe lines from tangling and aid in reactivating the kite after release or parking using the B-Safe system.

Performance Tuner

You can easily change the profile camber to increase or decrease bar forces. Use the standard setting for snowkiting, adjust toward the kite for foiling, and set it on the lowest option for teaching and increased bar forces.

Fine-tuned profiles

Usability, sublime handling, and trustworthy power deployment are key to trusting your kite in extreme alpine conditions. Especially in steep terrain, you need a reliable pull while ascending with a kite. Therefore, we fine-tuned every aspect to keep the power consistent.

Reinforced construction

Thanks to feedback from the PEAK fan base, we reinforced several details in the construction to extend the lifespan as long as possible. We focused on high-stress areas affected by flapping and integrated our new attachment points, which were recently introduced by the VMG³.

How does the PEAK⁶ compare to the PEAK⁵?

The PEAK⁶ simply shines with user-friendliness, increased stability, and highly reliable power deployment. We have improved the B-Safe System and ensured the kite lasts as long as possible without sacrificing performance. PEAK users will feel at home from the first moment and love the great bar feel.

+ consistent pull

+ less line drag

+ reinforced attachment points

+ responsiveness

+ low line tension stability

+ less line tangling after B-Safe use

+ quickly changeable profile camber

~ Launching of the ground

~ Flag out with FLS (Front Line Safety)

Foiling

Similar to its predecessor, the PEAK⁶ will be used by foilers. Even though the terrible (almost non-existent) water relaunch of single-skin foils is a significant downside, the new version performs better in direct comparison:

+ easier to jibe and tack

+ better drift

+ steady pull, especially during the loop, to get you going

+ more responsiveness / better bar feel

Here are the downsides:

– upwind performance

– higher lateral pull

How does the PEAK⁶ compare to the HYBRID?

The HYBRID is a playful, easy-to-use kite for those looking for a casual experience, teaching newcomers, and kite-foiling on waves with ease. The PEAK focuses on high-performance, adventurous activities in extreme conditions like steep terrain.

HYBRID advantages:

+ water relaunch

+ drift

+ lower power-spikes

PEAK advantages:

+ B-Safe System

+ upwind performance

+ power- depower ratio

Which areas of use is the PEAK⁶ suitable for?

The PEAK⁶ excels in usability and safety, responding to steering commands faster to keep you in full control. Steering remains smooth and effortless even when depowered, providing superior handling, especially in low wind conditions. The exceptional power-to-depower ratio continues to be a standout feature, delivering consistent and accessible power. B-Safe ensures safety by gathering the kite on a fifth line. The PEAK⁶ is a compact, ultra-light, highly specialized kite perfect for beginners to experts, and it offers excellent value for money!

Touring

Thanks to the PEAK’s minimal pack size and ultra-lightweight design, multiple kites can be packed effortlessly. Its excellent light wind handling and resistance to back stalls make uphill rides a breeze. The PEAK’s reliable depower and optional B-Safe system ensure you’re prepared for emergencies, self-landing, or safe breaks. Whether heading uphill or gliding downhill, the PEAK⁶ retains its shape and delivers unmatched stability. Its agility and superior handling make it the perfect companion for unforgettable adventures.

Teaching

The PEAK has become essential for kite schools, especially for light wind lessons. With the kite airborne, you can start teaching basic techniques in as little as 5 knots, allowing students to wear a harness from the very first minute. This approach significantly boosts lesson success rates. Introducing students to water sports has never been easier for instructors. Once the student gains control, the PEAK is also ideal for practicing water starts in shallow waters.

Foiling

For dedicated surf-foilers, we recommend the HYBRID. If you’re looking to maximize light wind sessions with a large hydrofoil, the PEAK is the ideal choice. However, it’s important to acknowledge that the PEAK’s water relaunch capabilities are limited. We encourage open discussion on best practices for safe usage and optimizing performance in these conditions.
