Further evolving from V4, we’ve managed to increase power and stability which further improves handling and control. New materials and 1 piece boom combine to create stiffness only felt in far more expensive materials.Increased power between the hands which doesn't shift as the wing powers up and locks into the forward section of the wing equals control and drive up wind.
Canopy
With the use of the heavier grade (81grm-m2) Challenge code tec 95P fabric, not only does it’s its shape held better whilst overpowered, it also has a super responsive crisp feeling. The life span of this material is also FAR superior. With extensive testing over a West Australian summer the wing utilising this material although weathered, held its original shape from when it was first pulled out of the bag.The coloured leading edge fabric is the traditional weight (54grm-m2) which allows the wing to breathe a little better in pumping up onto the foil and not feeling too rigid.
No more Handles. Only boom
After finally being convinced about going to a boom, we just realised there's no point with handles anymore.
Freedom of hand movement being one factor, but just as importantly the added strut rigidity as a result of the boom.
