One Complete, Matched Setup

Kite, control bar, twin tip, bindings, and pump are combined into one straightforward package. Every major component is selected to work together, removing the guesswork from building a complete kiteboarding setup.

Stable Power You Can Progress With

The Machine V3 uses a rigid five-strut structure for a planted, predictable feel when powered. Its sheet-and-send lift delivers clean boost, long float, and controlled landings without demanding aggressive kite-loop technique.

Comfortable, Forgiving Board Control

The Crisis V8 is designed to smooth out chop, hold an edge confidently, and track upwind without requiring perfect technique. Its forgiving flex helps riders extend sessions and build skills with less fatigue.

Room to Grow

This is not a setup you immediately outgrow. It supports confident freeriding, transitions, carving, first jumps, bigger boosts, surface tricks, and long-term progression as technique improves.

Machine V3 Kite

A stable five-strut freeride and old-school big-air kite made for powerful sheet-and-send lift, lofty hangtime, and soft, supported landings. Its planted structure stays composed in gusty or fully powered conditions, helping riders build confidence while pushing higher.

Sentry V3 Control Bar

A clean, direct, four-line control system with a low V-split, refined grip, SlimTrim depower cleat, FlyTech SK99 lines, auto-swivel system, and Sureshot quick release. It provides clear kite feedback, dependable safety, and an easy reset.

Crisis V8 Twin Tip

A versatile progression and freeride board with a single-concave hull, Atomic Wood Core, forgiving flex, durable base, and confident edge hold. It is tuned for smooth comfort, easy upwind tracking, controlled landings, and predictable progression.

Dually V8 Bindings

Comfortable, adjustable foot straps and supportive footbeds create a secure connection to the board. The updated design is built for long sessions, cruising, jumping, and continued skill progression.

Squall V1 Kite/Wing Pump

A practical high-volume pump made to get your kite inflated and ready with less effort. The pump includes a hose and complete nozzle kit for convenient setup at the beach.

A True Ready-to-Rig Package

The control bar includes a short freeride leash and standard quick-release loop, while the board comes with fins and a grab handle. Add a correctly fitted kite harness and appropriate personal safety equipment to complete your riding kit.

Predictable When Powered

The Machine V3 remains calm and structurally composed as the wind builds. That predictable feel makes it easier to focus on edging, timing, takeoff, and landing instead of managing a nervous kite.

Easy Upwind Progression

Reliable kite feedback combines with the Crisis V8’s natural tracking and edge hold to help riders maintain position, improve upwind angles, and spend more time riding instead of walking back up the beach.

Smooth Through Chop

The Crisis V8’s forgiving flex and single-concave hull reduce harsh feedback in rough water, helping riders stay relaxed, maintain control, and ride longer in real-world conditions.

Boost With Confidence

Sheet in, send the kite, and the Machine V3 produces clean vertical lift with float at the apex and support through the descent. The result is approachable jumping performance with time to spot and control landings.

Rigid Five-Strut Frame

The Machine V3’s structured airframe resists distortion under heavy load, keeping the kite stable and predictable through powered takeoffs, gusts, hangtime, and landings.

Six-Point TrimFlight Bridle

The bridle supports clean sheeting response, reliable power delivery, and the composed flying characteristics riders expect from the Machine platform.

Low-V Four-Line Control

The Sentry V3 provides a direct connection and clear feedback from the kite, with durable SK99 flying lines and an auto-swivel system that helps keep the setup organized.

Single-Concave Crisis Hull

The Crisis V8’s bottom shape and forgiving flex work together to smooth chop, maintain edge control, and make upwind riding and landings feel more manageable.

Is this a complete kiteboarding package?

Yes. It includes the Machine V3 kite, Sentry V3 control bar, Crisis V8 board, Dually V8 bindings, and Squall V1 pump. A kiteboarding harness, spreader bar, and personal safety equipment are not included unless specifically selected as additional options.

Is the Machine V3 good for progression?

The Machine V3 offers a stable, planted feel, predictable power, straightforward sheet-and-send jumping, long hangtime, and supported landings. It suits progressing riders who already have fundamental kite-control skills and want a kite they can continue using as they advance.

Is this package suitable for a complete beginner?

It can be a strong first personal setup after lessons, but no inflatable kite package replaces professional instruction. Complete beginners should learn safety systems, launching, landing, self-rescue, body dragging, and basic board skills with a qualified instructor.

Which Sentry V3 bar should I choose?

The 45cm bar is recommended for 6–8m kites. Either bar can suit the 9m depending on preferred steering speed. The 53cm bar is recommended for 10–12m kites.

How do I choose the correct Crisis V8 board size?

Choose from rider weight, experience, wind strength, and preferred feel. Larger boards provide more stability, easier starts, and stronger low-end support. Smaller boards feel faster and more responsive for lighter or more experienced riders.

Does the Sentry V3 include a kite leash?

Yes. The Sentry V3 package includes a short freeride leash and standard quick-release loop.

Does the Crisis V8 include fins and a handle?

Yes. The Crisis V8 package includes four 1.75-inch fins and a grab handle. The Dually V8 bindings and mounting hardware are also included in this complete package.

Can Windance help confirm my sizes?

Yes. Contact Windance before ordering and we can help match kite size, bar width, and board size to your weight, ability, local wind range, and riding goals.
