The X-Koi was an idea to
compliment the existing WiND-X Kites and also to reward our
clients with the best available technology in kiteboarding.
To achieve this, WiND-X have partnered with one of the best
board manufacturers and market leaders in kiteboard
technology. By doing so, WIND-X's R&D team will be able to
spend more time on developing kites. There is no point in
being a "Jack of all trades but master of none...". We also
don't see a point of reinventing the wheel.
The 2008 X-Koi line-up
includes seven sizes which are:
124x37cm
128x38cm
132x39cm
135x41cm
138x44cm (light wind performance)
144x46cm (light wind performance)
148x43cm
The sizes up to 135 and the 148 feature a new quad concave
bottom shape.
The 138 and 144 are single concave bottom shape designs with
extra width and flat rocker to get the best light wind
performance out of boards that are easy to travel with.
All boards have thinner
tapered rails, a new tip shape and a more complex but still very
smooth deck shape with moulded grab rails.
For 2008 we retain the proven construction including the
Paulownia wood core, which made our previous boards the
strongest we have ever built to suit even the most hardcore
riding style. In addition it provides a very smooth ride and
ultimate pop. Apart from these performance features it is better
for the environment which is essential for our sport.
Almost everything else is new for 2008.
The rocker lines and basic
outlines have been refined and when upgrading from 2007 models
to the new 2008 X-Koi you will feel comfortable straight away.
Performance advantages of the new bottom shapes combined with
the balanced overall design and construction characteristics are
more grip, better edging, very powerful pop and jumping, more
control when landing powered jumps flat with a lot of speed,
better powered and controlled carving and no spray in the face.
The X-Koi construction combines an Asian hardwood (Paulownia)
core with a durable PBT top and base sheets, tapered ABS rails,
stylish sublimated graphics and stainless steel inserts.
Tailored thickness flow and flex patterns create the comfortable
ride the X-Koi series is known for without compromising a wide
powerful outline curve that provides great pop and upwind
performance and makes landing tricks almost too easy.
Unidirectional Carbon
reinforced laminates provide the optimal balance between
strength, weight, flex and twist control.
Rails at the tips feature a thinner, harder edge to provide
tracking stability and a solid edge hold through carves.
X-Koi Boards are supplied standard with:
Integrated stainless steel inserts (specific sizes incl.
wake-inserts)
Adjustable footstraps
Removable screw down contoured footpads
50mm G10 fins
Stainless steel hardware
Grab handle
Now just choose the
right size to suit your weight, level, conditions and personal
preferences and enjoy the ride of the new 2008 WiND-X X-Koi
