54 CORE'S MEETING Less talk and straight to the core. We are German! Nexus: a customizable and very high-performing kite But let's get to it, the true protagonist of Core's <strong>International</strong> Meeting 2018: the Nexus. The new Core kite comes from the Section 2, the GTS4 and 14 years of research. It's an all-round kite which made us have fun right from the first minute we had it on our hands. Versatility and the possibility to customize it according to one's riding needs are its strengths. In fact, thanks to the CIT handling system we can finetune the kite's power and the turn radius by acting on the connection points of the lines of the leading edge. In the all-round mode, the Nexus pulls a little more, increases its hangtime and rotates slower. This behaviour is perfect for beginners and anyone who prefers a more relaxed surfing style. On the other hand, the wave mode, makes the kite faster, increases the depower improving the feet contact on the board when strapless, and allows narrower loops (useful in bottom turns). It also allows a greater pull when we pull the bar in, resulting in a fast feet switch. Lastly, the freestyle mode increases the loop radius, makes the kite more stable during freestyle manoeuvres and more vigorous. In general, the new Nexus inherits many of the best CORE innovations including a progressive power delivery, the 3 struts structure and the Radical Reaction Tips of the GTS. We deeply appreciated its incredible manoeuvrability on the waves of Kite Beach, its huge wind range and the Surf profile derived from the Section 2.
Let's see in detail the main features of the new Nexus: Technological shape, 3 struts only and radical tips Inspired by the GTS shape, the Nexus with its Future-C shape with a moderate aspect ratio, allows fast, tight turns with precise control. Imagine yourself making a perfect bottom turn, while you down loop your Nexus and don't feel yanked off the board. In other words, this innovative shape allows perfect ridings even in strong conditions.
