Roam A-Series
FREERIDE FOIL BOARD / WAVE
Inspiring trust and confidence in all conditions.
The A-Series Roam featuring ALUULA is simply a dream come true for freeride foilers and committed wave riders… and the design team have managed to reduce the A-Series Roam weight a further 4% across the entire size range.
This 3-strut kite with an ultra-light and strong ALUULA airframe allows for precise sheeting control, snappy turns and on-demand kite positioning in light winds. And should the wind pick up, the stiffness of the airframe means that the kite’s stability and precision control is retained.
As an added feature for the current version of the Roam, each one comes complete with the new Pivot Bridle Kit. Freeride kite foilers and wave riders will appreciate the enhanced pivot turning and sheeting achieved by the two additional pulleys.
Unpredictable wind states and formerly difficult-to-make sections all become opportunities for the rider: the playing field is fully opened up by riding the A-Series Roam.
It’s no secret that removing struts from kites means a compromise in performance – the reduction in weight improves light wind capabilities but the downside is reduced stability and poor top-end performance. With a full ALUULA airframe however, there is simply no need to compromise.
The reduction in weight and increase in strength of this airframe means you can retain all three struts and still enjoy the light wind benefits you’d get from a no-strut or one-strut kite, as well as the expansive usable wind range that comes with having a three-strut kite. The evenly balanced weight distribution of the three struts and the light leading edge deliver remarkable resistance to back stall and luffing if you overshoot the kite or find yourself in a lull.
Precision curved to match the airfoil profile, the ALUULA airframe is highly tuned to take full advantage of the unique properties of this cutting-edge composite material which is sewn using super-tough Quad Lock stitching, designed specifically for ALUULA.
Simply put: the ALUULA three-strut airframe delivers the best handling in ALL conditions.
The A-Series Roam’s low aspect ratio design and deep foil profile allow for maximum drift and low end power.
Built for the dedicated wave rider and freeride foiler, and with a moderate arc, the A-Series Roam is a supremely fast turning kite, combined with a large sheeting range.
Ocean Rodeo 2022/2023 Roam Aluula A-Series
This kite is as good as it is hyped up to be. Quite simply, it makes me a better kite surfer. The Roam Aluula is incredibly forgiving, the wind range is incredible and although it's suited to a surfboard or foil, it's boosty enough for when I get jealous of my twin-tipping mates and put the straps on my surf-board.
I picked up a 10m on my way to a camping trip. I camped at flat-rock and went out in a nuking northerly at backsides on day one - everyone else was flying 7 and 8m kites but the sheeted-in 10m Roam was just awesome. A couple of days later I flew the same kite downwind at Station Creek after the wind all but died and the white caps disappeared. I went back to Kite Loft and bought a 7m too.
Adam's after-sales care and repairs are proper old-school service and loyalty, and he is the nationwide preferred repairer for Aluula - you'd be mad to buy from anyone else.
