The Airush Lithium is equipped with the V3 Bridle System. The key benefit of the V3 bridle system is that the kite maintains steering even when completely de-powered, increasing the usable wind range and overall performance significantly while adding immense safety benefits. The positioning of the bridle attachment points on the LE of the kite, combined with the V pulleys result in lighter steering, but direct enough to feel where your kite is while riding.
Year after year, the Airush Lithium has been refined to meet the needs of riders who simply just love to kite.
We wanted to stay true to its roots by keeping the Lithium in the delta-hybrid, 3 strut space that proves to be the benchmark in all-around freeriding.
The changes are significant yet still hold true to those who have been following the Lithium range through its progression. You will find that the Lithium has improved jumping and hangtime, lighter, more balanced bar feeling, and overall faster steering due to the change in planform and leading edge design.
The Lithium features Techno Force D2 canopy material. This premium fabric is designed with a high-density structure using high tenacity double-coated polyester yarn in a double ripstop configuration. The double coating protects the yarn as much as possible from UV and abrasion damage. This ensures that the canopy remains as crisp and responsive for as long as possible.
With the easy-to-use design of the Airush Lithium V13, it is clear why it’s the World’s favorite freeride kite!
The Lithium V13 is used in our kite school. It's also available for demo or hire.

The Kite Mag –
The Lithium is a confidence inspiring sheet-and-go marvel, with sportive handling and a playful nature. It’s an uncomplicated genre spanning tool that is performant enough to keep even the most seasoned freerider engaged, and sports a wide application of potential use across twintip, wave and foil disciplines. https://www.thekitemag.com/tests/airush-lithium-v13
Jack Reider –
The word I would use to describe the new Lithium is *Intuitive*. It just works and it works really well! The second you launch the kite you feel at home. The kite has light bar pressure while still offering a sheet and go feel, quick turning, and offering feedback through the lines.

Great kite, pretty much impossible to stall, highly responsive and almost too easy to get airborne.
