FULL BLOWN FREEDOM Power, speed and manoeuvrability are all perfectly balanced in the moderate aspect-ratio profile that's been finely tuned to keep both front and flow stalls to a minimum. The XC not only turns playfully, it also provides instant forward drive thanks to the twist allowance in the center strut and tips. A perfect balance between drive and agility. The reactive relationship between stiffness and flex is forged from the ExoTex2 material in the leading edge and center strut. The low-stretch and highly durable CoreTex2 cloth help ensure the XC delivers liquid-smooth and linear power development. Optimal cloth tension and minimal drag help generate maximum power for a quick take-off and then offer precise control in flight as you simply let your senses take control. FEATURES ASPECT RATIO UND SWEEP POWER, SPEED AND MANEUVERABILITY The XC comes in a mid-to high-aspect-ratio that gives the necessary power and performance. The mid to high sweep of the front tube leads to a higher max speed while ensuring the overall agility of the wing is maintained. This well-tuned combination is the golden mean of power, speed, and maneuverability, which makes the XC the perfect match with our Spectrum foils. LIGHTWEIGHT HANDLES POWER AT HAND This is definitely more than personal preference. Rigid handlebars deliver a significantly more direct steering feel than soft handles ever could. Requiring less physical effort to hold on to, they can also extend your session through less fatigue. The extra long shape enables a balanced and relaxed stance on any tack. The EVA grip with an optimized profile guarantees a non-slip grip on your XC. CORETEX® 2 STABILITY WITH TENSION FOR IDEAL HANDLING Fundamental to the XC’s performance is that the stretch in the profile is reduced to a minimum, especially in load peaks. The CoreTex2 was aligned and sewn according to its optimal running direction in different canopy segments. Minimum stretch in the primary direction of load allows the wing to retain the most possible performance.The highly durable CoreTex 2 provides extremely high tear strength and excellent UV protection. WING TWIST TWISTED CONTROL TIPS The XC’s wing tips come in a higher angle of attack than the center strut, leading to a remarkable twist in the wing’s profile. This design provides the perfect balance between power and agility. The primary propulsion power comes from the center strut, while the angled tips stabilize and ensure a clean turning of the wing in all your maneuvers. When the wing is being pumped, the tips create the essential airflow by leading the pressured air towards the trailing edge and therefore creating the all-important forward propulsion. DOUBLE SPEED VALVE Wings require a large amount of air to ensure their stability. They should not only be fast to inflate but also easy to deflate. Therefore the XC comes with two-speed valves, which make deflation significantly faster. Wings above 5m come with larger diameters in their front strut to ensure their stability. By inflating the thinner center strut separately, you can ensure that you have the ideal and identical pressure in both struts. Obviously, every XC comes with a one-pump connector so you can also pump it via one valve at any time. WAIST AND WRISTLEASH For your CORE XC wing you can decide whether you prefer a wrist or waist leash. The hand leash is less likely to tangle with your potential board leash, whilst the waist leash offers maximum freedom during maneuvers or paddling for both of your hands. Both come with a super stretchy leash that offers maximum grip. The connection to your wing is a loop that makes connection mistakes or unwanted openings barely possible. The swivel ensures that your leash remains tangle free, even after multiple rotations. EXOTEX® 2 Robust and stiff Air Frame. The ExoTex 2 dacron is extremely durable and has very little stretch. Even under the highest loads, the elongation of the fibres in any direction is reduced to a minimum. An extensive emulsion process also makes ExoTex 2 extremely tear-resistant., The very stiff airframe delivers the most direct power transmission, especially useful during flight and when pumping the wing after a waterstart to come up on the foil.
