We got the ENova between our hands : You’ll read here our first feeling about this kite both on the ground and flying : Conditions were 2/20 knots south in Fos sur mer (13).

-Making : The kite is clean, even though we do miss the one pump (which helps the price down)… The bar is clean and the adjusting screw of the stopper is stainless.

-Behaviour flying : The kite behaviour is excellent and it turns well, the back power and the feel in the bar are good. It is stable and gets depowered very efficiently. The Enova is more present in the bar than the Nova 2. For a 7.0, the pull is excellent but this should be checked over. Beginner be careful , don’t forget to use the bridle to avoid small troubles and not get mixed up…

Design remit (for memory) :

« Takoon is developing the Nova concept – safety and wind range – and provides models that are easy to access, no extra flourish, this is for thse who enjoy riding simply with efficient material.
The eNova has a 5 battens’ shape, a feeling in the bar that is very comparable to a classical kite and the construction is simplified (no single inflation).
Easy to handle with a high level of efficiency, the eNova is a light kite, stable and easy to re-launch. In fact, this is the first kite that is 100 % in conformity with the new laws and regulation concerning safety.
Less aggressive and more stable, the eNova is ideal for wakestyle, freeride and surf.
From now on available in 5, 7, 9 and 12m². »
