TR I N I T Y T X Trinity TX is a 3×2 canopy material which is designed with a high density structure. It is made of high tenacity polyester yarn. 3 yarns run horizontally for optimized prevention against damage and tearing. This results in a crisp rigidity which guarantees direct and precise steering due to the stiffness that is created vertically. Only 2 yarns run vertically which results in greater horizontal flexibility. The end result is that you get a reactive canopy profile that also saves weight. In comparison to a 4×4 canopy material Trinity TX has a weight savings of up to 20%. The unique double coating process ensures that each individual yarn is covered and protected (yarn coating) before being woven into one fabric. With the second coating of the surface of the whole fabric the canopy develops an ultra crisp and direct response to steering. Thanks to the double coating and the 3×2 yarn structure Trinity TX is long lasting, super strong and resilient to potential rips and tears. It is developed in collaboration with Teijin and is exclusively implemented in Duotone kites. MATERIAL WORLD Modern kites, boards and bars intelligently combine sustainable natural materials with the latest high tech composites.
