Detla Bow Shape:
The XR Pro incorporates the concave trailing edge of a traditional bow kite and swept back wings of a delta kite. The airfoil is engineered to rip upwind when underpowered, boost bigger on demand and get you planing first!
The latest design benefits from an optimized wing profile shape near the maximum chord to add a little more speed.
Speed Pump System:
This model receives shorter air hoses to reduce weight and improve airflow to the struts.
When you haven't kited in a few days, every second counts :)
CIT Modes:
Start by selecting your favorite CIT mode on the leading edge bridle connection points. The wave mode makes the kite turn faster and increases depower. It also provides more lift when you pull on the bar.
The freestyle mode increases your turn radius, stabilizes the kite for easier freestyle moves, and provides a little extra grunt. The kite comes out of the bag in allround mode which provides excellent depower, grunt, and superb hangtime.
Complete your personalization by adjusting the steering line connection points to set turning speed and bar pressure. But don’t worry, the kite comes ready to fly in the most common settings.
Instant Relaunch:
The XR Pro is designed to immediately drift into a perfect relaunch position when it hits the water. One quick tug on the bar and the XR Pro launches itself effortlessly.
Riders will appreciate how easily the kite releases from the water when time is of the essence. And beginners gain confidence knowing their kite will be flying in no time. So go ahead and try some new moves, you know your XR Pro has your back.
5-Strut Frame:
The bombproof, five strut exoskeleton frame is a critical component in the XR Pro design to stabilize the additional power created by our Intelligent Arc system.
Their designer modified the strut curves to extract more stability especially when powered. The noticeable improvement in strut rigidity required a small adjustment to the CIT bridle points to add a little more power steering.
Coretex Triple Ripstop Canopy:
Our, industry-leading, triple ripstop canopy fabric is protected and strengthened with a special coating process.
CoreTex sets the standard in breaking strength, tear resistance, longevity, UV protection and elongation. Feel the tight, crisp signature only a CoreTex kite delivers.
Speed Valve 2:
The Speed Valve 2 connects directly to any standard 20mm OD twist lock pump hose.
The Speed Valve 2 maximizes airflow, minimizes inflation times and noticeably reduces pump pressure.
This inflation/deflation system is so good you may even leave your electric pump at home.
Faster Turning Speed:
Small moves in bridle attachment points have a huge impact on any kite's performance.
Core have been experimenting with these points on just about every prototype to improve handling while maintaining its signature character.
Intelligent Arc:
Intelligent Arc is a bridle configuration that modifies the airfoil on demand in a linear and direct way.
Like a bird that spreads its wings to generate more lift, the XR Pro increases its wingspan with a pull on the bar.
Likewise, sheeting out makes the kite fold in its wings and depower. Intelligent Arc helps you rip upwind, extends your float time, and cushions your landings.
Short Bridle System:
The XR Pro features improved locations for the leading edge bridle connections.
The super short bridle system improves feedback so you can better feel your kite’s position.
In the larger kite sizes, this reflexivity increases even more so. Just imagine a kite that practically anticipates every turn, as if it’s hot-wired to your brain.
Sensor Bar Ready:
The XR Pro is optimized for CORE’s ultralight Sensor bar systems including the latest Sensor 3S.
They feature precise kite control, unmatched safety, and uncluttered simplicity.
