The Core section is Core's dedicated kite for the surf. Tech Specs: -Surf profile -Ultralight 3 strut frame-Exotex dacron -Moderate C shape -Short bridle system-Rapid water relaunch Insider Info: The Section is such a great surf specific kite because of the direct feel through the bar. The light bar pressure makes this kite easy to turn and make those quick adjustments you need to hit the lip, or draw a line on the wave. The LW edition is made with a more lightweight material, making for the same lightweight feel associated with the smaller sizes. We were able to test the 9m Section which had a very light, agile feel. This kite actually felt much lighter compared to the 9m Core XR4. The compact bridle system is great when you crash your kite so that your lines don't become tangled, and allows for quick relaunch. Why you want a Core Section: If you want a durable kite that can withstand a beating in the surf this kite is for you. The Core Section is great for kitesurfers of all levels and is a great kite for travelling and kiteboard around the world.
