Armstrong X-Wing Performance Wing
NOTE: Boom Sold Separately
Proven Performance, Evolved
The X-Wing defines the next generation in Armstrong's wing lineup. Designed and constructed to deliver high end performance and efficiency with redefined composed handling. It offers a fast, intuitive ride that feels immediately familiar yet distinctly elevated.
Reactivity, progressive power output combined with its lightweight are the key attributes that have it sitting above the XPS in the range. The X-Wing is constructed with high performance materials adding to air frame stiffness and overall weight reduction. Equally at home at your local Wednesday night races or surfing Ho'okipa.
Less Weight, More Efficient
Built with advanced materials, the X-Wing achieves a reduced leading edge diameter for lower weight without compromising rigidity. This optimized structure delivers improved efficiency throughout the wind range. At under 2 kg, the wing feels light, maneuverable, and easy to handle keeping fatigue low and performance high.
- Waterproof and Stable: The film layer seals the cloth and improves stability by preventing moisture ingress.
- High Tear Resistance: Ultra-PE X-PLY reinforcement spreads loads and stops tears from propagating.
- Low Stretch + High Strength: Ultra-PE fibers are much stronger and less stretchable than polyester, keeping shape under load.
Features:
- Windows: Horizontal visibility for safety that's lightweight, exceptionally clear, and wont yellow or crack over time.
- Longitudinal Panels: Retains better tension on the improved airframe geometry.
- Cross Panel Sail Design Canopy: Greatly reduces sail distortion, improves frame rigidity, and packs in more power.
- Airframe Geometry: Reduced leading edge diameter and higher aspect built for greater efficiency and control.
- Trailing Edge Battens: Minimizes canopy flutter and provides easy tuning for varying wind strengths.
- Dyna-Link Handle System: Choose separate handles or a boom with quick and easy assembly, no hardware required.
Includes:
- Repair Kit
- Backpack style Wing Bag
- Carbon Battens
