Beschreibung
All thed esign innovations from our fourth STRIKE have been applied to this STRIKE CWC. This wing featuresonce more a super intuitive pumpingwith a certain flexibility that makes it easy to start planing without having to expend a lot of energy or learn a special technique. Each pumping motion smoothly propels you forward, guaranteeing an instantaneous take-off and more efficiency than ever.
The aerodynamics of this wing have naturallybeen optimized for exceptional performance in light wind. In flight, the STRIKE CWC is perfectly balanced and easy to forget about. This incredible forward traction, inspired by the new STRIKE, offers a unique glide, enabling more enjoyableand prolonged sessions. The CWC makesgoing upwind easy,and boasts an impressive highendas wellso you can absorb the gusts if the wind picks up.
Materials:The leading edge of this fourth STRIKE CWC remains in HITEX 158g and 178g.This high tenacity polyester offers great resistance to elongation and therefore greater durability and performances.Both HITEX weights are perfectly distributed to account for the different tensions, high pressures, and weight distribution in this area.
The innovation of this wing lies in the strategic placement of ALUULA on its three struts. Thanks to the mechanical properties of this light and resistant material, the central strut is now thinner. This results in less drag and a noticeable reduction in weight, which also favors freefly and handling during downwinders or jibes. Finally, the ALUULA struts reduce inertia during maneuvers, transitions,and pumping.
Guaranteeing performance and durability, our thicker TECHNOFORCE™/D2 in 66g has been placed on the trailing edge where tensions are important and resistance essential. The rest of the wing’s canopy is in TECHNOFORCE™/D2 in 52g.
Design:The central strut of the CWC is now completely straight, which allows us to better control its deformation and possible twisting, while reducing drag. As a result, the infill is a bit lower and deforms less, and we’ve extended it almost all the way to the back. Our innovative Load Diffuser is reduced for weight gain, especially during freefly.
We’ve also added dihedral angle to improve stability and keep the wingtips out of the water when pumping and riding. The new leading and trailing edge tensions help keep the profile smooth and stable for incredible performance and control.Thewing’s body features a horizontal cut to optimize the weight of the seams on these large-surface, light-wind wings.The trailing edge features a vertical cut in 66g for ideal traction control.A small radial cut is implemented on the back of the strut to spread tensions.Finally, theLoad Diffuser further helps maintain the profile sleek and efficient, leading to the ultimate stability, performances, and longevity.
