Freewing N-Team (Nitro)

» 30% lighter than a traditional wing with greater stability

REDUCED WEIGHT

The HO’OKIPA Ultra PE fabric is 25% lighter than traditional Dacron leading edge materials. The reduced diameter structures and optimized details result in an overall weight saving of up to 30%.

High Pressure Leading Edge

Able to run 80 – 100% more leading edge pressure, creating a stiffer structure and ultimately allows for a thinner leading edge.

Load Frame Supported Canopy

Utilizing the same Ultra PE primarily fiber as the leading edge and struts, the load frame carries much of the primarily load running through the canopy.

This prevents the canopy cloth from overstretching and losing performance.

This also increases responsiveness by creating a more locked in shaping into the canopy.

Thinner Tips

Thinner tips reduce the oscillation of the wing when the wing is in neutral.

This makes the AIR Team easier to control when the wing is flagged out.

Higher Tension Canopy

The higher tension leading edge increases tension which improves the stability of the wing, low end-power and responsiveness.

Thinner Leading Edge

Reduces the drag on the wing, when the wing is flagged out while riding or down winding.

This is especially important in more offshore wave conditions to help keep the rider on the wave face.

Allows a higher angle of attack when going upwind or traveling at higher speeds.

High-Pressure Leading Edge and Strut

The biggest combined benefit of the Ultra PE is the ability to run higher pressure without sacrificing longevity.

This higher tension leading edge creates a much more responsive frame that can be loaded before jumping, pumps incredibly well and responds quickly to rider input.

Window & No Window Models 

The AIR Team is available in both window and no Window versions.
The windowless version offers the lightest weight possible, however, windows may be required for competition.
