Gear Catalog

Real kite performance data

Surfr has logged 2.4M+ sessions and 72M+ jumps from real riders — the largest kitesurfing dataset in the world. The Gear Catalog turns that into an honest look at how each kite actually performs by size: average and max jump height, average and max airtime, and the real wind ranges people fly them in, aggregated from at least 25 sessions per model and size. No manufacturer marketing copy, just what riders logged. Scope: kites only, sourced from Surfr's kite session data.
