The PLKB Gambit V2 is the more sporty successor of the Gambit. This allround freeride kite feels direct and predictable in everything you do. Power when you want it and lots of depower. The new V2 Gambit has lighter bar pressure and handling with a higher flying speed. This way, you will never lose that fun-factor in your kite. With the new profile, it becomes more stiff and has less flutter in stormy conditions. PLKB wanted to create a kite that is suitable for all riders, from beginner to winner. A kite with big air potential, wave potential and stimulating a fast learning curve. A kite that you can always use, no matter what you’re going to do.
The new LE curve and panel layout give the Gambit an easier water relaunch and moving its bridle more towards the TE creating an easier ride. The Gambit remains its predictable and direct power delivery, which improves your learning curve. The Gambit V2 gained many characteristics of the PLKB Swell drawing them closer together.
Notes: Bar to be purchased separately. You can find the recommended bar size for each kite size in the table.

HIGH DEPOWER BRIDLE SYSTEM
The Gambit has a single Pulley high depower fork bridle. The Leading Edge is supported by 3 bridle points that come together with a V shape creating more depower abilities, lighter steering and better gust handling, keeping a direct feel and comfortable ride
DOUBLE STITCHED LEADING EDGE
Multiple reinforcements improve durability. The leading edge and struts are built with the most durable Dacron. The entire span of the leading edge has been reinforced along the seam with double stitches to protect it from getting damaged when crashing or getting a pounding by waves, making it hands down one of the toughest kites on the market. All the bridle attachment points are reinforced with Dacron patches that are stitched on the inside of the leading edge so, even if all the power is channelled through one bridle point, the kite will not get damaged
KEVLAR REINFORCEMENTS
Every PLKB kite was reinforced with bullet proof Kevlar bumpers. These bumpers are filled with lightweight foam to create an absorption layer for crashes or when the kite accidentally got dragged over land. This way your kite lasts longer. This will increase the durability of your kite so you can play longer
