no-compromise all-round performance BUILT FOR EVERYTHINGTUNED FOR EVERYWHERE From now on there is no need to worry about whether power, turning speed, lift or drift are more important. The ultra versatile handling of the CORE Nexus 3 makes compromise a concept of the past. A brand new material mix of ExoTex 2 in the leading edge, ExoTex Light in the struts and CoreTex 2 in the canopy not only make the Nexus 3 stronger and more robust, but also lighter and more agile. THE COMPLEXITY OF PROVIDING SIMPLICITY At the heart of the Nexus 3's pure all-round performance lies the uniquely balanced relationship between aspect-ratio, arc shape, tip geometry and finely tuned bridle positioning that has been carefully tweaked alongside the implementation of Exotex 2 across all sizes in the range. The Nexus' famed agile wave handling remains, but now there's better drift, in part thanks to the kite's overall reduced weight and increased stiffness. FEATURES STRONGER MATERIAL. STIFFER AIR FRAME We're proud to release our brand new Exotex 2 leading edge that's stiffer, lighter and yet also 80% more tear resistant. Exotex 2 is a considered and progressive evolution of polyester weaves through both the warp and weft. Through every inch of the Nexus 3's air frame you'll find the use of ultra-strong yarns and the entire structure is now stiffer, more tightly woven and then finally treated with a unique heating and shrinking process.single strut frame delivers better lightwind control than strutless kites by reducing excessive canopy flutter. Single struts also offer superior water relaunching capabilities over strutless kites, especially in lighter wind and surf conditions. Go one strut! NEW! CORETEX® 2 CANOPYMORE STABILITY & DURABILITY Combined with our highly refined CoreTex 2 canopy cloth, we've accelerated the development of light weight performance and dynamic handling as well as improving the core strength of the Nexus 3. The marginally lighter canopy fabric features massively improved tear resistance, stiffness and durability. A new coating process aids stability in higher winds and jumps. CoreTex 2 sets the standard in breaking strength, tear resistance, longevity, UV protection, and elongation. Feel the tight, crisp signature feel that only a CoreTex kite delivers. EXOTEX® Light StrutsLIGHTER YET MORE ROBUST The ExoTex Light dacron incorporates a radial thread pattern and emulsion (protective coating) process that reduces mass by approximately 10%. While the new ultra resistant ExoTex 2 is used for the leading edge, the ExoTex Light struts improve the Nexus 3’s drifting and turning speed – important attributes for freestylers and wave riders. 3 STRUT LIGHT FRAME. PLAYFULLY LIGHT Three struts just turn better. Fewer struts allow the kite to twist more effectively, which improves wave performance and kiteloops. Additional weight savings are achieved with the new ExoTex® 2. Our lighter dacron really helps the kite drift effortlessly in waves.
