The main ZULU characteristics are :
|
- High depower
- Excellent low end performances that let you use one kite size smaller than with other brands
- Very easy relaunch

| Sebastien Salerno took 3rd place in Dakhla with ZULU 11 ! |
 |
After an intense snowkiting season (with a 3rd place at the French Snowkite Championships 'Open Distance' with an ESKIMO), Sébastien Salerno is back from his 10 day trip to Dakhla.
He successfully took part in the Long Distance Windsurf & Kitesurf competition, which was organized by the 2nd edition of the Dakhla Festival. Sebastien achieved a real good result with his 3rd place, competing for the first time with his new ZULU 11 that he received the day of his departure to Dakhla. |
Philippe Bru, the organizator of Defis Wind was in charge of the race. Several top speed riders were there, like Alex Caizergues and Manu Taub.
The race did not require much of tactical games (downwind with 5 turning marks), but it was important to reach high speeds and to have an excellent physical endurance. The high depower of the ZULU allowed Sébastien to maintain his path in the gusts while the low-end performance of the ZULU enabled him to easily plane through the lulls. |

Results :
1-Franck Dussaux
2-Alex Caizergues
3-Sébastien Salerno
Congratulations Sébastien - well done !
