Working in collaboration with sister company CORE Kiteboarding, a\r\nleader in kite design and technology, SIC is proud to introduce this series of performance wings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wing’s leading edge utilizes our ultra-rigid, non-stretch, ExoTex® Dacron, which incorporates a unique thread structure and emulsion (protective coating) process that\r\nallows for a higher-pressure airframe and substantially increases tube strength and rigidity. The non-stretch Dacron improves airflow, flight stability and prevents seam\r\nbulging on the leading edge. Expect snappy turns, explosive lift, and smooth sailing upwind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur industry-leading, CORETEX® TRIPLE RIPSTOP canopy materials was developed by CORE Kiteboarding and is only available on the SIC Raptor wings. This high performance\r\nfabric is protected and strengthened with a unique coating process. CORETEX® sets the standard in breaking strength, tear resistance, UV protection, elongation,\r\nand overall durability. Feel the tight, crisp signature only a CORETEX® built wing delivers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe low aspect ratio of the wing provides tremendous power and due to the shorter wingspan, it reduces the chance of your wing tip dragging in the water when powering\r\nup, tacking, jibing and board touch-downs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Raptor wing uses an in-flow panel connecting the canopy with the control strut, ensuring that the wing maintains the most efficient aerodynamic profile during acceleration\r\nand cruising speed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe web handle loops help maintain control, trim, and comfort.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe RUSH-AIR valve system enables you to quickly inflate the wing to the requested inflation pressure with little effort as well as allows you to deflate the wing in case of\r\npressure adjustment or when you want to pack up the wing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eKey Features\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn-flow panel design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExoTex® Dacron leading-edge and control strut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCORETEX® TRIPLE RIPSTOP canopy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeb control handle loops\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrailing edge battens to stabilize leach\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWindowless design for max. performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2x RUSH-AIR inflation\/deflation valves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWrist leash\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarry backpack\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRepair kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRush-Air Valves\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe large diameter inflation valves allow a maximized airflow with very little resistance. In combination with\r\nthe high-quality, dual-action pump, filling your wing takes a matter of only minutes. The pump hose connects\r\ndirectly to the valve. No, nozzles are needed. It has an automatic airflow reflex membrane eliminating any\r\nloss in air pressure when detaching the pump. The valve cap is easy and secure, also helping to maintain\r\nthe air pressure. When delating, simply unscrew the whole valve, and the wings will deflate in an instant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo valves have their advantages: The leading edge and control strut are inflated by two independent\r\nvalves. This allows you to vary the inflation pressure in each bladder to fine tune the wing according to the\r\nconditions. In lighter winds, a little less pressure in the LE (6-7 psi) can help with wing pumping efficiency.\r\nWhen inflated 8 psi, you will have better high-wind control and wing stability. The control strut should\r\nalways be pumped to 8 psi to tension the canopy sufficiently to have a rigid boom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSizes : 3.0m², 4.0m², 5.0m², 6.0m², 7.0m²\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SIC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":65367643717981,"sku":"108260","price":840.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1057\/2818\/0573\/files\/SIC_2021_Raptor-Wing_3D_side_f2617a59-cec1-4093-8699-c2185431d670.jpg?v=1784943800","url":"https:\/\/www.getonthewater.co.uk\/products\/sic-raptor-performance-wing-5m-108260","provider":"Get On The Water UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
