DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Confidence and stability in flight
The Core XC 2024 uses a rigid structure and a super taut canopy to deliver tangible stability while riding. You'll feel minimal flapping, even during transitions or in gusts, allowing you to ride with confidence and focus on your line and speed.
Precise control thanks to dynamic twist
The design's twist at the tips channels power towards the center while maintaining sensitivity at the wingtips. This balance is a real plus: the wing remains predictable when loaded, allowing for fine steering adjustments and quick power delivery when pumping.
Lasting comfort with well-designed handles
The rigid, extra-wide handles with their EVA grip provide a firm, comfortable hold. You'll feel less arm fatigue during long sessions, and your manoeuvres become cleaner thanks to better power transfer.
Smart materials and easy inflation
The combination of Dacron ExoTex2 and CoreTex2 ensures uniform canopy tension and high durability. The Double Speed Valve system, paired with One Pump, simplifies inflation and deflation, and lets you balance the pressure between the central strut and the leading edge.
Versatility for freeride and wingfoil
With its medium-high aspect ratio profile, the wing offers a great balance between power and handling. We recommend it for riders who want an allround wing for varied sessions, from foil pumping to more committed freeride runs.
Finish and durability
The quality finish and choice of durable materials are obvious the moment you handle the wing. It shows solid construction and attention to detail, guaranteeing durability for regular use.
