KT Pulse Back Wing

KT Pulse Back WingDownwind, Race, Speed Wing, Efficiency Cruising, Dock, Long Distance Pump.Sizes: 95 / 115 / 135What KT has to say:The Pulse Tail is KTs highestefficiency stabilizer, built for riders who prioritize glide, speed, and sustained efficiency over tight turning response. Its engineered to pull maximum glide and topend out of any front wing, making it the ideal choice for conditions where conserving energy and holding speed matter most. Compared to surforiented tails like Atom, Pulse runs at lower angles for the same lift and delivers noticeably more glide and topend speed. Its highaspect outline minimizes induced drag, helping the foil hold momentum through lulls, flat sections, and long gaps between bumps. Pulse is the tail you choose when efficiency is the goal. It excels in downwind and race conditions, and its equally effective for dockstarts and flatwater pumping when youre chasing maximum distance per pump rather than maneuverability.Features:Geometry – High aspect geometry tuned to run more efficiently than surf tails for equivalent lift. By generating the same support at lower angles, it delivers a cleaner, faster, and more predictable feel at speed, letting the foil stay effortlessly on line while carrying glide with less drag.Performance – Optimized for downwind, race, and longdistance efficiency, Pulse boosts glide, raises topend speed, and adds pitch stability when youre moving fast through open water, chop, or turbulence. It gives the foil a calm, composed feel at speed, making it easier to stay on line, hold momentum, and keep the glide flowing with less effort.Efficiency – Maximum efficiency is the core design goal. Pulse minimizes drag and energy loss, helping riders go farther, faster, and with less effort per pump or stroke. It delivers that clean, frictionfree feel that makes long glides, fast lines, and extended runs noticeably easier and more rewarding.Feeling:Pulse feels lockedin, calm, and effortlessly efficient. Pitch response is smooth and predictable, with minimal drag and almost no resistance once youre up to speed. Its built for long runs, racing, and glidefocused sessions where stability and sustained momentum make all the difference.Speed:Pulse is built for speed, efficiency, and rapid acceleration. Once its moving, it carries speed exceptionally well, making it far easier to maintain glide through lulls, flat sections, and pumping sequences. Topend speed is noticeably higher than surforiented tails, especially when paired with faster front wings and shorter fuselages, giving the whole setup a cleaner, faster, and more effortless feel.Shape & Outline:High aspect platform tuned for minimal induced drag and maximum glide. The outline prioritizes span over chord, boosting efficiency and delivering a calmer, more stable pitch feel at speed. This shape keeps the foil efficient, fast, and incredibly smooth when youre covering distance or pushing topend performance.Agility:Lower agility by design compared to surforiented tails. The turning feel is smooth, gradual, and floaty rather than snappy, prioritizing stability and sustained efficiency through longer arcs and higher speeds. It gives riders a calm, predictable platform that rewards flow, clean lines, and effortless glide.Construction:High-Modulus Carbon construction keeps the tail exceptionally stiff and lightweight, giving it a precise, stable feel under load. The high stiffness maintains consistent tail angles at speed, improving predictability, stability, and overall efficiency when youre pushing hard through chop or accelerating on long glides.SpecificationsSize (cm2)Span (mm)Aspect RatioWeight (kg)ConstructionPerformance9535613.3TBAHM Carbon95 cm.
