Airush Board and Kite Accessories:
Smartbar 5
The Airush team have refined the Smartbar 5 this year by having four length adjustments. It can be changed from 45-55 or 52-62 with simple and easy alterations. What is great about the length adjustments is it allows the bar to be used with the smallest kite to the largest kite in the Airush range. The Smarbar 5 includes the same line length changes as before, which gives every type of rider their choice of lines whether they are a free rider, freestyler or wave rider – it is suitable for all.

AFT Team
The AFT Team combines dual Velcro closure, and integrated molded EVA arms with the legendary AFT Footbed. This creates the perfect balance of comfort and support needed for long sessions on the water.
There is a new footstrap component with the 2014 range, which allows riders to quickly adjust the strap whilst the double Velcro closure customizes the tension of the front and back of the strap, working in union with the Dual Foam System to adjust to different foot shapes. There is a refined pad that allows the foot to centre naturally which ultimately improves the rider response.
