Core Kites are some of the best kites on the market today. Their team are positioned 1 2 3 4 on the Woo Leaderboards for highest jump, which says something. Keeping their range of kites small means it’s easier to choose a kite that’s perfect for you. The XR series is their wonder kite. Performance Freeride, Wave Riding, and even a touch of Race. The Nexus is Core's flagship Wave Kite, but also is part freestyle/freeride, which is great for the guys that want to do a bit of everything. The GTS series is the Freestyle machine from Core. Excelling in freestyle, the GTS also handles wave and freeride exceptionally well. Give us a call on 01202 738448 to demo a kite, or pop in store and we can run you through the range!

CORE New Products

<h2>Take a look at the new 2019 Core XLITE Kitesurfing Kite at S2AS!</h2> A completely new product from Core Kites developed specifically for the specialized discipline of foiling! Never a company to release a new kite without having fully developed and fine-tuned every aspect to ensure it fulfils all the desired characteristics, Core Kites have once again achieved something special. Designed specifically for Core's Specialized Series; banner a unique line of products designed to fulfil a sole purpose and with the Xlite kite, that purpose is to be a truly outstanding, no compromise one strut inflatable kite with features specific to the unique discipline of foiling! One of the defining attributes of foiling is the ability to go kiting in conditions that would be unavailable to a traditional twintip or wave kiteboard, and in order to achieve this, a specialized kite is required, enter the Xlite! Originating as a hybrid of two specific Core kites; the Section and the Nexus, by utilising the phenomenal wave properties of the Section with the power of the Nexus in super light winds! The Xlite is a kite that can be both sized down and with an increased canopy aspect ratio to ensure that the kite stays ahead of the foil. In order, to achieve these incredible properties the Xlite went through a comprehensive lightweighting program in order to shed an incredible 10% in weight, for a kite that allows riders to still foil in 8-10 knots! To achieve this incredible weight reduction Core experimented with new leading edge materials and bridles until they were completely satisfied, settling with the CoreTex canopy for added support and power to the one strut design, ExoTex Light leading edge for a strong dacron material that is 10% lighter and lastly a thinner, anti-snag bridle that further reduces weight and improves water relaunching.  With perfect kite balance and super direct bar feel, the Xlite makes learning new moves a blast! <h3>Key Features:</h3> Future C-Shape: True C-kite feel. For snappy turns with a controlled and consistent pull. CIT Modes: Fully adjustable kite handling characteristics. Wave mode makes the kite turn faster and increases depower, whilst Freestyle increases the trun radius and stabilizes the kite and adds a little extra grunt. The Nexus comes out of bag in the Allround mode that sits nicely between the two One Strut Light Frame: Deliverying vastly superior lightwind control versus strutless canopy due to reduced canopy flutter, along with offering greater water relaunching capabilites ideal for thise light wind conditions Exotex® Light Ultra Rigid Dacron: Zero stretch airframe utilising a radical reinforcing thread pattern and protective coating process that allows for a higher pressure with a smaller diameter Coretex® Triple Ripstop Canopy: Extreme durability and UV protection setting the benchmark for longevity and tear resistance LW Profile: Generating power and speed with a shifted back camber for improved drifting. Alway feel in total control whether bearing downwinf of carving jibes Ultrashort Bridle System: Improved kite feedback. Instant Relaunch: Reliable water starts in difficult conditions. 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 have the energy for an extra trick or two. Speed Pump System: Fully pumped in no time. Huge air hoses and strut valves allow uninhibited air flow. And when you haven't kited in a few days, every second counts :) Sensor Bar Ready: For maximum kite feedback and control pair this kite with a Sensor 2 or 2S bar. 6 Year Parts Availability: Core's Industry leading durability is backed by a 6-year replacement parts guarantee

Find out more by reading the news below, provided by CORE. Better yet, get out and try one! The Nexus, billed as two kites in one, but we found at least three things it’s really good at. Certainly, it’s great in waves, with more lift than a Section so it boosts better as well, but the slack line control is still there in spades and you can mess with the settings. One way for Surf, the other for freestyle on which settings if you’ve been trying that handles trick and not nailing it then chances are you will with the Nexus, it’s a lot more forgiving, less punch in the face than say the GTS4. Then in the middle settings, it’s just a great freeride kite, what makes it good at waves and freestyle also means it excels for intermediates wishing to just go ride, or push their individual envelopes. It’s not an XR5 so if you don’t know how to jump, pick your kicker, load and release it’s not going to take you to the moon like the XR5 will, but if you do know all that good stuff then it’ll do it better as the guys found out in Cape Verde where they broke the island height record using it. Then there’s foiling, lots of folks have spotted that what makes kites good in waves also makes them good on a foil, but there’s a little bonus with the Nexus particularly when your foil taking upwind, it’s extra lift in the vertical just gives you that extra through the tack, try one you’ll see what we mean.  So there you have it what’s that? did we say three kites in one? Well make that four.. and friendlier than the fire from a US AirForce Warthog. <h3>Key Features:</h3> Future C-Shape: True C-kite feel. For snappy turns with a controlled and consistent pull.

<h2>Take a look at the new 2019 Core XR6 LW Kitesurfing Kite at S2AS!</h2> High Performance Freeride+ | Freestyle | Wave Everyone in kiting has experienced those days when the wind just tempts us. The XR6 LW takes out the guesswork of whether or not you can ride, trust us you can. The XR6 LW inherits all the power and range of its legendary little brother the XR6 while receiving measurable weight saving upgrades like CoreTex Light and Exotex Slim Struts! Fourteen years of development, hundreds of prototypes, and many inhospitable test sessions have gone into the XR6's signature ride. Frank Ilfrich, Core's head designer, knows how important it is not to lose the DNA that makes the XR what it is today and his team has succeeded again. The XR LW's linear responsiveness continues to deliver effortless cruising, record-breaking hangtime, and super smooth landings. After six generations, they've dialled in the characteristics  Like prodigious power. Unbelievable depower. And precise control on the water and in the air. With the same tread depth in the centre as the XR5, but slightly flatter on the outside. For this purpose, the Bridle connection points and Strut geometry have been revised, small but crucial adjustments allow for even more control in high end, higher airspeed and better upwind capabilities, more pop and faster spin! The XR6 LW continues with Core's highly successful 5-strut, Delta Bow shape that isn't just a fan favourite; it also breaks records. Frank Ilfrich, went over every small detail and found weight savings in the leading edge, extra speed in the canopy, and efficiency improvements to our Speed Pump System. Frank and his team modified the strut curves to extract more stability especially when powered. The additional strut rigidity (and lowend grunt) required a small adjustment to the CIT bridle points to add a little more power steering.  Now, it's your turn to break some personal bests with the new XR6. <h3>Key Features:</h3> Delta Bow Shape: The XR6 curves with its concave trailing edge into a classic bow shape, with swept tips show genes of the Delta shape. This creates a greater depower and full power for better boosting, upwindability and earlier planing. Further improvements have allowed for even more pop and higher airspeeds. 5 Strut Frame: Lightwind kites require a stable screen in order to quickly gain reliable flow and propulsion. The XR6 Lw relies upon the tried and tested 5-Strut design for a stronger, stiffer and all-round more dynamic profile. Having been redesigned for the XR6 the struts have new geometry and seam guide, for more control, lift and hangtime without increasing the overall weight CIT Modes: Allows the kitesurfer to adapt the kite to their riding preferences, with three different modes: Wave, Freestyle and Allround, for optimal revving and steering forces Exotex® Slim Struts: Zero stretch airframe utilising a radical reinforcing thread pattern and protective coating process that allows for a higher pressure with a smaller diameter Coretex® Light: Exclusive to Core this ripstop material is a lighter weight fabric which provides incredible breaking strength and tear resistance Ultralight Wingtips: ExoTex Dacron provides weight saving on the leading and trailing edge whilst protecting trhe areas that come into contact with beach Intelligent Arc: Designed to anticipate your desires in the air, by changing the projected area more up to more than 10%, pull on the bar and the kite spreads out its tips like wings, push it away and the kite pulls back in. Allowing the XR6 LW to seamlessly transition from big air boosting machine to precision turning instrument Short Bridle System: Allows the XR6 LW to respond to the riders control impulses in a flash, resulting in perfectly linear depower, extremely dynamic flight and turning characteristics 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 have the energy for an extra trick or two. Speed Pump System: Fully pumped in no time. Huge air hoses and strut valves allow uninhibited air flow.

<h2>Take a look at the new 2019 Core GTS5 Kitesurf Kite at S2AS!</h2> Triple your freestyle sessions with Core's improved GTS5 LW lightwind edition! Master your favorite unhooked tricks in those less than perfect wind conditions or just relax and cruise down to the next beach with your buddies. With virtually the same control and agility as your smaller GTS5, it's so good you 'might' even start looking forward to those lightwind days. The GTS5 LW carries over much of the three strut, ExoTex design from its smaller siblings to retain its outstandingl agile, freestyle character. This 5th generation features new refinements to its shape and Leading Edge diameters. Improvements that make the GTS5 even more stable when looping the kite while still delivering that special ‘C-kite’ feel.   GTS5 Lightwind is the perfect partner for those not so perfect days. Delivering enough pop for you to lay down some impressive tricks while everyone else is stuck mowing the lawn.  <h3>Features:</h3> 3 Strut Frame: Three struts promote more twist than five. More twist initiates faster turns. Fewer struts also reduce kite weight which benefits slack-lining.  Future C-Shape: True C-kite feel. For snappy turns with a controlled and consistent pull. CoreTex Light: Exclusive to CORE’s LW Editions. This industry-leading, ripstop canopy fabric is just as durable as the original CoreTex and sets similar benchmarks in breaking strength, tear resistance, longevity and UV protection. UltraLight Wingtips: ExoTex® Dacron provides an opportunity for weight saving leading and trailing edge designs while protecting areas in contact with the beach during launching and landing. Those areas are particularly robust and designed to take a beating. Radical Reaction Tips: C-style shaped wingtips for faster bar response Speed Profile: A more efficient and aerodynamic kite profile can generate more apparent wind and thereby create more lift and power. Fly faster. And fly earlier with the LW edition. ExoTex® Slim Struts: Made in Germany. And exceptionally durable. ExoTex’s new asymmetrical Dacron weave and emulsion (protective coating) process is specifically developed for our exoskeleton frames to prevent bulging, ripping and UV degradation. Improves flight stability and delivers superb rider feedback. UltraShort Bridle System: A little shorter and even sweeter. The un-bowtie-able, two pulleys, bridle system is shorter on the new GTS4 LW which improves bar reaction, feel and positional feedback. And for this unhooked maestro, having precise bar control in your hands is a bonus when you’re potentially blind and upside down. Core Intelligent Trim (CIT) System: Kite speed and bar pressure is a matter of choice. Your choice. With fully adjustable back line tension (aka trim), bar pressure and kite turning speed, Core's quick adjusting trim system gives you the freedom to ride any way you like. But don’t worry, the kite comes out of the bag ready to fly so you can play with the adjustments later.  Speed Valve 2: Maximizes airflow, minimizes inflation times and noticeably reduces pump pressure.  Speed Pump System: First one on the water wins! We installed big strut distribution hoses and designed aerodynamic strut valves to make air flow faster into the struts.

<h2>Take a look at the brand new 2019 Core Bolt 3 Wakestyle Kiteboard at S2AS!</h2> <h3>"WoooHooo!"  We're so excited Core have released their 3rd generation of freestyle boards!</h3> The third generation Bolt, Core's adamantine wakestyler, is built for a long life of sliding and grinding. The top and bottom receive two extra sheets (laminations) of their exclusive high-performance Cartan carbon fiber. In total, four additional carbon laminations give this wakestyle rockstar the necessary rigidity and durability for long-term performance. The low friction, high modulus polyethylene base slides effortlessly over most surfaces. And is easily repairable with a PTEX candle.  "Slider and rail approved." Core have also added more channels to improve traction and speed especially when riding finless. The deep vee keel is missing between the boots to flatten the sliding area. All the channels are also beveled and countersunk to prevent them from catching an edge while grinding. <h3>Features:</h3> <ul> <li>Two Layer Cartan® Carbon: Cable park strong. Two layers of high performance, low resin,  30° Biaxial Carbon Fiber Weave which optimizes board torsion and dynamic longitudinal flex. </li> <li>3D Wood Core: Naturally dynamic. The CNC milled, long grained, Paulownia wood core gives the Bolt 3 unmatched dimensional stability,  excellent decay resistance and a lightweight yet distinctively powerful character. </li> <li>Vario Rails: Variable rail thickness. 9.5mm shaped rails near the center of the board that reduce down to 3mm on the tips, resulting in much greater control.</li> <li>Diamond 3D-Shape: On the tips and around the grab handle, the surface is milled in the shape of diamonds. The refined contours reduce weight and direct torsional forces to the fins and edges where you want them for a perfect balance between flex and rigidity.</li> <li>Multi Channels: Extreme grip even without fins. </li> <li>V-Shape Keel: Inspired by the legendary handling of deep V powerboats in rough waters, CORE integrates a progressive V-shaped keel into the tips of the board to penetrate chop and smooth your ride. </li> <li>Pro Rocker: A moderate freestyle rocker with superb handling during off-center landings.. </li> <li>Pro Fix Grindbase: This snowboard inspired base. The waxy surface you feel on the new Bolt 2 is high-modulus polyethylene, a material with superior sliding properties especially over rails, ramps and other water features. And just like snowboards, scratches and dings can be easily repaired with any PTEX candle.</li> <li>Rail Ready Base: Perfect for rails or anything else for that matter. The board’s slight mono concave bottom and less pronounced channels underfoot won’t interfere with rails, sliders or your riding style. But it might smooth out some of the chop.</li> <li>28 + 42mm G10 Fins: Optimized shapes for the Bolt 3.</li> </ul>

<h2>Take a look at the new 2019 Core Impact 2 Kitesurfing Kite at S2AS!</h2> Experience the ultimate unhooked machine. A legit wakestyle beast. A pure C with five lines. Its skinny ExoTex airframe, deep C canopy, increased trim options, and extra sizes fuel its explosive power. Yup, Core have gone all out with this stunner by amping its speed and aspect ratios. Try one if you dare, and let us know the impact it makes on your riding! <h3>Features:</h3> Deep C-Shape: With longer tips than the GTS4, the Impact 2 retains the classic C-shape you demand. As such, expect a consistent, uniform pull for extreme pop, and perfectly predictable slack for all your rotations and passes - so you can focus on your moves and not the kite. New for the Impact 2 is a slightly higher aspect ratio in all sizes improving its speed and wind range. Classic-C Tips: Real C-kites have square wingtips. Connecting lines directly to the Impact 2’s wider square wingtips provides the direct connection you expect from a true C-kite. 5 Line Setup: Just simple and direct line connections to the kite. The only change here is the V on the fifth line is a little deeper offering even more consistent power delivery and improved stability. ExoTex Ultra Rigid Dacron: The benchmark for performance Dacron. No-stretch ExoTex Dacron incorporates a unique radial reinforcing thread pattern and emulsion (protective coating) process that enables higher pressure airframes with smaller diameters.  Especially on C-kites, ExoTex improves airflow, flight stability, and rider feedback by substantially increasing tube strength and rigidity despite reducing diameters. CoreTex Triple Ripstop Canopy: Exclusive to CORE. Our, industry leading, triple ripstop canopy fabric is protected and strengthened with a special coating process. CoreTex sets benchmarks in breaking strength, tear resistance, longevity, UV protection and elongation. 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 have the energy for an extra trick or two. Speed Pump System: Fully pumped in no time. Huge air hoses and strut valves allow uninhibited air flow. And when you haven't kited in a few days, every second counts :) 5 Strut Frame: The classic, bombproof, five strut exoskeleton airframe is a critical component in the Impact 2 design to control and stabilize the kite during kite rotations. This stability creates predictable kite behavior.  Active 5th Line Safety: Classic 5th line safety with a bonus. The Impact’s 5th line always remains perfectly tensioned regardless of the trim adjuster cleat setting. Custom Trim System: The Impact has three backline and five frontline attachment points to customize your bar pressure and kite flying style. Rapid Relaunch: Get more out of your freestyle session. With its wide tips and small diameter front tube, the Impact 2 releases better from the water than you would think. A couple tugs on the backline is all you need to get the Impact 2 flying again so you can spend more time mastering your latest handle passes. Sensor Bar Ready: Although the Impact 2 is a 5 line kite, it’s still fully compatible with the Sensor 2 and 2S bar system which delivers precise kite control, unmatched safety, and uncluttered simplicity. The Impact 2 comes with a 5th line conversion kit for any Sensor 2 or 2S bar. The conversion is quick and simple. The Impact 2 is not compatible with older 4 line Core bars, though. GrinTex Patches: Anti-wear patches where you need them most. Extreme abrasion resistant patches on leading edge segment seams and struts give the Impact 2 another level of protection from perfectly placed beach hazards. 6 Year Parts Availability: Core's Industry leading durability is backed by a 6-year replacement parts guarantee

<h2>2019 Core Sensor 2S+ Kitesurfing Bars and Lines, this bar is incredibly strong, light and direct.</h2> SENSOR 2S+, PEERLESS IN DESIGN. AND NOW WITH THE NEW S-SYSTEM. LIGHT. DIRECT. SAFE. Your session’s awesomeness depends heavily on your gear. We believe the Sensor 2 control bar system contributes much more than you would think to kite performance. And it’s what you don’t see that makes our bars so unbelievably good. The functional know-how we hide inside and the minimalist design on the outside gives our bars the signature CORE confidence you expect. And the safety features you rely on.  The Sensor 2 bar is now joined by the new Sensor 2S and Sensor 2S Pro. Two new bars with more tech wizardry that you can’t even see at first glance. Regardless of your bar selection, The CORE Sensor 2 bar system will provide you with the lightest, safest, and most direct feeling bar on the market. Because we sell more than just cool bars. We sell confidence. Meet the new Sensor 2S. An intelligent mid-cycle update to the exceptional Sensor 2. A bar, where engineering ingenuity meets minimalism; where ceramic bearings are used to eliminate friction in the auto untwist function; and where Tectanium is used to make the thinnest and most aerodynamic depower lines. Technical innovations that make the Sensor 2S bar system peerless. Sometimes, it's what you don’t see, that makes it so good. Still not good enough for you? Then, you are ready for the new Sensor 2S Pro. <h3>Features:</h3> Ceramic Untwist: Functional simplicity. Untwisting your front lines has never been easier. Front line twists only occur below the sensor 2s bar. An improved, below the bar, swivel with hi-tech ceramic bearings unravels the front lines virtually on its own or whenever the bar is pulled in. The days of manually spinning the front line swivel are over. Welcome to the sensor 2s era of super auto untwist! S-Neck: Perfect balance. The stainless steel connection between the rotor qr and the depower lines is shaped to provide more symmetric pulling forces on the lines. S-neck: smoother auto untwist. Zero unwanted leverage. Perfectly symmetric pulling forces. Now that’s smart. Tectanium S-Slide / Depower Lines: The Sensor 2S replaces the front lines from the “y” to the chicken loop with our exclusive, no stretch, tectanium. And we protect it with a 5.2mm, uv-stabilized, polyether where it passes through the bar. Techno speak for a really durable, self-lubricating, no pinch, depower line. The new, virtually frictionless, depower/safety lines are more aerodynamic, provide better feedback, and are more comfortable between the fingers. Just wait till you try it. You’ll see. Ultralight Unibody Bar: Made in Germany. The featherlight, unibody bar comes in at a mere 230g. The key to the Sensor 2S’s light and super direct feel is found in its low mass and low bar-end height. Inertia is reduced and leverage is optimized. The sensor 2s sports a deeply contoured eva grip for long lasting comfort and excellent hold. The reduced diameter grip makes even gloved sessions more comfortable and less fatiguing.  Titanium Core: Leave it to Core to design the strongest bar ever. We engineered an internal, aircraft quality, grade 5 titanium alloy truss to reinforce the bar. The titanium’s featherweight rigidity gives, in part, the sensor 2s’s direct feel. And it permits a reduced diameter, no cramp, grip.  Rotor Quick Release: The only 2-way quick release you do not have to think about. Releasing the kite is as simple as turning the mechanism in either direction for a simple, safe and intuitive process. It’s well known that more torque can be generated twisting than pushing or pulling. Unlike conventional systems, our quick release does not require you to overcome the flow of water. The rotor sets the standard for ease of use, safety, and performance. Another advantage of the rotor over conventional push/pull systems is size. The rotor is shorter, lighter and more compact than those other systems. All things being equal, a shorter rotor permits a closer trim adjuster location. And who would not want to have a shorter reach to the trim adjuster? Supported Single Frontline Safety (SSF): Exclusive to Core. When the rotor quick release is activated, the kite will fully depower and come to rest in a ‘drift launch-ready’ position (nose to wind) until you are ready. The benefits here are twofold. The kite stays put and does not want to relaunch into the sky. And there is no pull on the lines while the kite is in ‘drift launch-ready’ position simplifying the process of re-engaging the rotor quick release. So how does ssf work and why does the kite not ‘turtle’ and stay in the air? The answer is that the kite does not flag out on one front line or equally on 2 front lines. Ssf releases 100% of the back lines and flags the kite mainly on one front line. But sufficient tension remains on the other front line to steer the kite down. So in effect, it is the slight (unequal) tension on the other front line that prevents the kite from turtling and remaining sky bound. Short Safety Leash: Extra short is extra safe. The short safety leash comes standard with all core bar systems. When connected to your spreader bar, our short, 50cm long, leash delivers better ergonomics and safety. It is easier to see or grab and it won’t tangle like longer leashes might. If you do not see unhooked freestyle in your future, then protect yourself with a short leash.  Spliced Ends: A small but important detail relates to how we finish our line end loops. We don’t simply fold over the line and stitch it up. No, that’s cheating. We braid the loop before stitching and finishing for a safer, stronger, and more aerodynamic connection. Durable 24m Lines: Made in Germany quality. Our line supplier, Liros, is a name synonymous with innovation and workmanship. For example, they pre-stretch our lines under heat. Only 1.8mm thick and sporting a breaking strength of 368 kg, the Sensor 2S lines will perform beyond your expectations. A small but important detail relates to how we finish our line end loops. We don’t simply fold over the line and stitch it up. No, that’s cheating. We braid the loop before stitching and finishing for a safer, stronger, and more aerodynamic connection. Vario Width: One bar covers all our kite sizes. From 4 to 19m! Nice. The sensor 2s bar width is adjustable from 46cm to 52cm by moving one knot. The best design ideas are the simple ones. Switching widths is as easy as 1. Pull back the floater exposing the bar end leader. 2. Undo larks head knot on the back line where it attaches to the bar leader. 3. Pull on the opposite bar leader knot and reconnect larks head. Simple. And unbreakable. Core Loop/Stick Set: You will even find core engineering at work here too. We designed the loop stick to move out of the way when unhooking so hooking back in is easier. This design also prevents unintentional unhooking too. Nice touch? We think so. Sensor Adjuster: Easy, one line, trim adjustment for those who prefer simplicity. Our clam cleat design reduces pulling effort by 25% which is noticeable in powered conditions. Still not comfortable? Then follow our step by step instructions to lower the cleat for a shorter reach. Plus Four Line Length Options: A Sensor 2S Bar with four line length options. Maximize your kite’s performance. Easily and inexpensively with the new sensor 2s+. A bar that replaces the standard 24m lines with our vario lines. Vario lines are liros sourced, 18m lines with a 2m and 4m extension. As a result, the sensor 2s+ can be outfitted with 18, 20, 22 or 24m lines. Go short in the waves. Or longer in your next race. Without buying more bars. Sensor 2+. Save money. Experiment. And have more fun.

We sell confidence. Meet the new Sensor 2S Pro bar. The only, titanium trussed, carbon fiber control bar. A bar that exhausts superlatives. A bar we are very proud of. We leveraged our experience in carbon fiber board building to build a 100% carbon fiber, thin grip, unibody bar reinforced with a titanium alloy truss. Although it shares many of the same features as our sensational Sensor 2S bar, it is profoundly different in that it features a full carbon fiber bar and 100% Tectanium lines, top to bottom. Go Sensor 2S Pro.  <h3>Features:</h3> 210g Carbon Fibre Bar: Yes, even lighter than Core's unibody bar. Our carbon fiber bar reduces the already low weight to an unimaginable 200g. With the same breaking strength, the titanium reinforced, carbon bar is even stiffer than the sensor 2s bar. Its low mass and low bar-end height reduces inertia and optimizes leverage. For perfect balance, control and response. Full Tectanium® Lines: Exclusively developed for core by liros, the market leader in specialized aeronautical and sail cordage. The virtually tangle-free, no stretch, tectanium center and steering lines are 400% more resistant to elongation and feature an unbelievable 50% greater breaking strength. To cap things off, the lines are 10% thinner and, therefore, more aerodynamic.  <ul> <li>10 percent lighter and thinner</li> <li>50 percent higher break load</li> <li>400 percent higher stretch resistance</li> </ul> Ceramic Untwist: Functional simplicity.

Pull back the floater exposing the bar end leader. 2. Undo larks head knot on the back line where it attaches to the bar leader. 3. Pull on the opposite bar leader knot and reconnect larks head. Simple. And unbreakable.</li> <li>Short Safety Leash: Extra short is extra safe. The short safety leash comes standard with all core bar systems. When connected to your spreader bar, our short, 50cm long, leash delivers better ergonomics and safety. It is easier to see or grab and it won’t tangle like longer leashes might. If you do not see unhooked freestyle in your future, then protect yourself with a short leash.</li> <li>Core Loop/Stick Set: You will even find core engineering at work here too. We designed the loop stick to move out of the way when unhooking so hooking back in is easier. This design also prevents unintentional unhooking too. Nice touch? We think so.</li> </ul>
