ASCENT Kiteboard 2026

Big Air Progression set-up

Developed by Aaron Hadlow and Ralf Groesel, the Ascent combines over 25 years of high-performance gear design and riding experience into one powerful package. Pair it with the Harlem Peak and Lead bar for the ultimate Big Air progression set-up.

- Built for Big Air progression: Designed by Ralf Groesel and Aaron Hadlow for riders chasing height, breaking records, and pushing limits, the Ascent delivers effortless Big Air progression with performance on demand.
- Push with confidence: The Ascent is made for riders who want more speed, more height, and more commitment. Its optimised outline and rocker line delivers fast acceleration explosive take-offs, and smooth landings.
- Unmatched grip and speed: A unique double concave with central channel gives you max grip without slowing you down. That means more control, especially when loading up for take-off, and more fun, no matter the conditions.
- Control meets comfort: Built with a custom carbon and glass fiber configuration, it strikes the perfect balance between precision and comfort — stiff in the center for solid landings and explosive response; softer in the tips for smooth take-offs and forgiving touchdowns.
- Unparalleled stability: A unique blend of unilateral and biaxial carbon eliminates reverse flex — giving you unmatched stability and confidence on the water. Go big, ride hard, and ride again—your knees will thank you.
- Made in Europe: The Harlem Ascent board is expertly crafted in Europe and delivered in eco-friendly, plastic-free packaging — from workshop to water, with sustainability in mind.
