Hydra 2 420

Description

HQ Hydra 2 420 is a unique trainer kite designed to relaunch directly on the water. It’s made for beginners who want to learn kite control – whether on a busy beach, in the water during your first body drags, or as a warm-up before moving up to a larger kitesurfing kite. With the Hydra, you can simply unpack, launch, and get out on the water, even when the beach is crowded.

Its key strength is Closed Cell technology: the kite is built with a closed-cell system that makes relaunching and landing on the water safe and easy. A one-way valve system and a waterproof zipper effectively prevent water from entering the kite, and it works just as well on land – with enough power to pull you through the water as you learn the techniques. A newly developed cell structure ensures maximum durability, even during intense training.

  • Closed-cell technology: Makes it possible to relaunch and land safely and easily directly on the water.
  • Third line as a safety system: Lands the kite quickly if you feel overpowered, and also enables reverse relaunch.
  • One-way valve and waterproof zipper: Effective protection against water entering the cells.
  • Ready to Fly: Comes complete with 3 x 20 m Dyneema lines (220 kg breaking strength), a 50 cm control bar, and a practical backpack with a large zipper.
  • Versatile use: Suitable for training on land and in the water, body dragging, SUP with kite, landboarding, snowkiting, and buggying.
  • Durable construction: New cell design and reduced bridle for more performance and improved aerodynamics.
  • Suitable for beginners: From age 16 and with a wind range of 4-10 m/s – the perfect first step toward kitesurf.
