The
X-KOi
The word koi is not
Japanese, but rather
Chinese. Japanese
call the fish Nishikigo
(coloured koi). The
fish are regarded
as symbols of strength,
good luck and prosperity
in Asian Cultures.
Due to the large numbers
of colour variations,
koi are sometimes
thought to be different
species, yet all are
Cyprinus carpio, a
member of the carp
family.
The X-Koi was an idea
to compliment the
existing WiND-X Kites
and also to reward
our clients with the
best available technology
in kiteboarding. To
achieve this, we have
partnered one of the
best board manufacturers
and market leaders
in kiteboard technology.
By doing so, WIND-X's
R&D team will
be able to spend more
time on developing
kites. There is no
point in being a "Jack
of all trades but
master of none...".
We also don't see
a point of reinventing
the wheel.
The core material
on the X-Koi is wood
with a durable PBT
top and base sheets,
hand shaped ABS rails
and stylish sublimated
graphics. Apart from
being better for the
environment, the end
result is the boards
ride smoother, have
better pop and are
the strongest boards
ever built. Unidirectional
Carbon reinforced
laminates provide
the optimal balance
between strength,
weight, flex and twist
control. Rail shapes
are hand finished
with a thicker more
tucked rail in the
mid section of the
board to help soften
the ride through chop.
Rails at the tips
feature a thinner,
harder edge to provide
tracking stability
and a solid edge hold
through carves.
The Boards are supplied
standard with:
Integrated stainless
steel inserts
Adjustable footstraps
removable bolt down
contoured footpads
EVA covered grab handle
50mm G10 fins
Stainless steel hardware
Adhesive EVA grab
bar
The boards are designed
with a double concave
on the bottom.
