Copied the Peak design?


The uniq and Peak look alike(except for AR) and even rhyme:P...

The same 'rib' design stands out foremost...with curved leading edge right behind.

Nothing unique in the Uniq....

Apparently nothing proprietary in the Peak that's granted if applied for...?

What company is next?

The Peak bridle attachment is different, the un-uniq has a slightly different wing tip. It's like a children's spot the difference competition :D

Hold on!
Copied peak design... :no:

Peak vs Uniq is apples and oranges.

Peak is a depower and needs the bar regulation to keep in shape, next to that its got glasfibre rods all over the leading edge, also to maintain shape I might add.

The Uniq's are no depower kites, and do not have (or need) spars or intricate systems to keep them in shape and flying well.

Oh, and I've been flying the 3-line version on short lines with longboard, works like a charm :cool:

Interesting find alf, the uniq does look very similar to those. The YouTube video on the their website was published in January so I'm guessing they are fairly new?

Can't confirm a release date with 100% certainty but they're in production now so it 'll take a couple more weeks.
As they're a completely new product range we will have to do a final check when we get them here, which 'll also delay them by an extra weeks or so.

(testing at the beach... such a hard job :D )
