+ Next generation performance, power + control for all riding styles +
Whether it’s free flying, wave riding or freestyle, the all new A-Wing XPS delivers next generation performance, power and control. Armstrong recruited the world’s leading wing and kite designers to push this shape to the next level. Each aspect of the new A-Wing XPS was tirelessly thought out, tested and finely tuned in a wide range of riding conditions.
An innovative cross panel sail (XPS) design provides an outstanding level of connection when riding. This futuristic panel layout greatly reduces sail distortion by improving load distribution and frame rigidity. This gives all the wing sizes a very direct and controlled feel for easy and comfortable flying. Removable carbon fibre battens minimise trailing edge flutter and provide easy canopy tuning for varying wind strengths.
The XPS’s airfoil section combined with Armstrong's pre-twist tip geometry produces incredible speed with sublime upwind performance. This greatly benefits jump amplitude for freestyle manoeuvres and delivers plenty of hang time and float for smooth landings. This wing is also a wave rider’s dream with little to no luffing or sail flutter and excellent stability, allowing the rider to focus less on the wing and more on shredding the wave.
A newly developed hybrid carbon handle (HCH) design has a rigid carbon interior skeleton and soft padded exterior. This combination offers the best balance of control, comfort and safety.
Armstrong tested hundreds of individual materials during the development of the XPS. They settled on the new generation high quality lightweight Dacron, tried and tested polyester Dacron and Ultra PE woven laminate (ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene) for key reinforcements. The result is a highly refined combination of materials which delivers impressive strength to weight, durability and overall performance.
Let customers speak for us
These wings are a killer! Glide's unreal — pure stoke every session. Fully frothing on 'em!
Great item, nicely padded with loops for leash connection,
Probably best to size up if between sizes.
Does the job.
Well made, comfy, useful extra loops for stuff, just what you need.
This foil, and indeed all the Code gear really ticks the boxes for me. It goes amazingly and is built to last. Backed up by great customer service from Poseidon Watersports. Already eyeing up which one to get next (although for a one foil quiver, both the 720s and 850s would both work great!).
Its incredible! For myself being 88kg. I find the take offs as easy as my 75L board. It’s unbelievable. The narrow design has opened the world of a smaller board without sacrificing the ball ache of hard sticky takeoffs
For prone I can glide into unbroken waves. It gives me alot more time to think about popping up.
Game changer for me! Since I've had it, I've not used any of my other boards.
1 board quiver?
For me….. i think so!!! Very happy
Great all round kite I've enjoyed in all sorts of conditions
Love it
Took it out for maiden flight, gusting 25. Solid shape even fully de powered.
Reversed fixing points thru me a bit
Poseidon were top class. Thanks
