Takoon have been quietly making great freestyle boards for years now, the last one we tested was the Data and we rated it quite highly!

The Furia from Takoon is their top end kite aimed at the high performance market looking for a kite that will excel at both freestyle and waveriding.

Takoon Sutra

We haven’t seen a board from the boys at Takoon for some time here at the magazine. So we were quite excited when the Sutra first arrived at the office.
