Description
The Core XR8 is a high-performance big-air and freeride kite, built for riders who want explosive jumps, smooth kiteloops, and precise control. Featuring a stiff 5-strut Deltabow frame with the new ExoTex?2 dacron, the XR8 is lighter, faster, and more efficient than ever, delivering exceptional steering, upwind performance, and big-air lift.
With a thin leading edge and struts, this kite slices through the wind window with minimal resistance, giving a direct, responsive bar feel. The CoreTex?2 triple ripstop canopy ensures maximum stability and durability, even in extreme conditions. The Intelligent Arc Bridle system with CIT modes lets you adjust the kite's character, from smooth freeride to aggressive megaloops, while the Delta Bow shape provides effortless depower and easy relaunch.
Ideal for freeride, big air, freestyle, and wave sessions, the XR8 combines lightweight performance, ultimate stability, and unmatched high-flying potential, making it one of Core's most capable high-performance kites.
