The Nemesis HP is the best kite we have ever made and we have priced it significantly less than the competition. It does everything better than any other kite on the market. Whether you are into big air, big waves, freestyle, handle passes or just cruising, the Nemesis HP is the perfect kite. With a host of advanced design features and E-Z PumpTM or standard inflation options available, the Nemesis HP makes kiteboarding more fun.
It flies faster, turns tighter and jumps higher than any other kite on the market. It delivers unmatched handling response for big wave surfing with ultimate bomb-proof reliability, making it the perfect kite for demanding riders and all riding styles.
The third generation Cuben Fiber leading edge used in the Nemesis HP allows us to create an awesome upwind kite with excellent performance, jumping and hangtime ability that simply can not be matched using Dacron fabrics. Cuben Fiber is a non-woven fabric made of unidirectional filaments, using a similar lay-up to carbon fiber composites. Cuben Fiber cloth has zero stretch, so it does not absorb steering input. This gives you the fastest and most direct handling response, even on the smallest bar.
Our Cuben Fiber LE is thinner and stiffer than any LE on the market, allowing us to create a more aerodynamic profile and faster flying kite that simply slices through the air for unbelievable upwind and jumping ability. With the thinnest, smoothest and stiffest leading edge in the industry, no kite responds as fast to rider input or transmits feedback as telepathically as the Nemesis HP.
The Nemesis HP is the first Best kite to benefit from our new VP2, Virtual Pulley Position front bridle. VP2 balances the control line loads between the turning and lifting surfaces of the kite, maximizing turning speed and stability. Unlike fixed bridle and 5th-line systems, VP2 dynamically distributes load between the wingtips and the central canopy sections to give you stability and performance that is simply out of this world.
Our VP2 bridle reduces the bar travel needed for maximum depower, giving riders more freedom in how they choose to tune their bar setup without having to use a bar mounted pulley system. The Nemesis HP gives you more wind range than any other kite due to its huge range of AOA adjustment. Whatever style of riding you are focussed on, from big-air to the biggest waves, you will find the Nemesis HP delivers perfect power and control.
Our unique Canopy Framing Technology delivers the ultimate impact and crash protection for your kite. Evolved over two seasons, CFT has been refined for reduced canopy weight for ‘08. Straight seam construction, as seen in other kite designs, leads to the creation of stress riders and weak spots. With a revised all curved panel cut and new TE seam protection zones, CFT ensures that your kite will handle as perfectly at the end of your second season as it did the day you bought it.
For ‘08 we have refined the leading edge seam further, building on the legendary reputation for durability of our ‘07 line up. Triple stitched, webbing taped and internally reinforced with mark cloth, the Nemesis HP Load-flex seam once again sets the standard for kite construction.
The Nemesis HP is not just the best big-air kite that has ever been made, it is also the perfect wave and freestyle kite. With six rear line attachment point options you can tune the Nemesis HP for the perfect blend of power, turning speed and handling feedback for the way you ride. We absolutely guarantee it.
The Nemesis HP is the easiest to ride, highest performance kite ever made. Our use of Cuben Fiber ensures that the HP has unmatched aerodynamic performance and the lowest drag of any kite on the market. The new VP2 bridle system delivers an SLE kite with greater stability and manoeuvrability than has ever been possible. Our legendary surf-tough build quality, solid airframe construction and proven performance features guarantee that the HP will be the most enjoyable, reliable and durable kite you ever own.
