Technology

NXT Airframe Design

Utilizing the most premium laminate known to wind sports enthusiasts, we created a kite with the highest stiffness-to-weight ratio. Stiffness creates an intuitive response while reduced weight increases the acceleration. Combined this makes the Code NXT the fastest kite we have ever produced. When riding you will feel the kite constantly accelerating through the window allowing you to ride a 10m while your friends are on 14’s.

NXT TrimFlite Bridle System

Featuring the SK99 bridle line, this stretch-resistant bridle falls into the same design principles as our NXT Airframe. The SK99 bridle lines have the highest stiffness-to-weight ratio of any bridle line on the market. The increase in response with a reduction in drag generates faster acceleration through the window.

Progressive Arc Canopy

The Progressive Arc Canopy in the new Code NXT, introduces a higher aspect of pro-file compared to its predecessor, enhancing the kite’s aerodynamics for im- proved performance. This innovative design not only increases lofty hang time and super-fast turning speed but, also ensures precise control for the rider.

4×4 Canopy Tech

The strongest, stiffest, and most durable canopy material used in any kite. 4X4 Canopy Tech is reinforced ripstop nylon with a 4X4 weave that delivers unrivaled tear resistance, near-zero stretch, and season-after-season durability.

Rider Customization System

Fully customize the performance of the Code NXT with our Rider Customization System. RCS allows you to fine-tune the handling, power delivery, and perfor- mance of the Code NXT to align with your riding style and conditions. Utilizing the RCS, a rider can incrementally shorten or lengthen the flying and power lines, which easily adjusts the Code NXT’s turning speed, level of power, angle of attack, and bar pressure.

One Pump Speed System

The patented Slingshot invention now has increased tube diameters for cleaner airflow and repositioned tubes to be more streamlined and durable.

High-Pressure Inflation

In 2025 we decided to move towards the high-pressure valve, originally de- signed for the military to inflate their boats quickly, with the ability to deflate just as quickly if not faster. This gives the rider the most durable and fastest inflation and deflation system on the market. Inflation takes half as much effort and defla- tion takes half as much tim
