Core Section 5 Kite Only
Description
Description
CORE presents the fifth generation of its wave specialist: The successful story and freshly crowned world tour winner continues in careful evolution. For section fans, wave chasers, surfers.
Proven shape, new qualities
Numerous optimizations give the Section 5 an even better drift.
At the same time, its airframe got stiffer, thanks to intelligent volume distribution in the leading edge: Towards the middle, the front tube is now a bit thinner, while it’s a bit thicker towards
the tips compared to the Section 4. The Section 5 retains its material combination of the low-stretch and tear-resistant CoreTex 2, the stiff and ultra-robust ExoTex 2 for the leading edge and ExoTex Light for the struts. All three CORE-exclusive materials are among the best on the market when it comes to performance and durability. "Our regular tests with other materials show that ExoTex 2 and CoreTex 2 continue to play at the top and are exactly the right choice for the requirements of the section," says Managing Director Philip Schinnagel.
Surf-specific flight behavior, always keeping riders in full control
The material mix of ExoTex 2 Dacron and CoreTex 2 cloth is the secret to ultra-direct and fast steering for aggressive turns and cutbacks. Just like the surf-friendly, cushioning flight behavior that distinguishes the Section from other wave kites.
In the breathtaking and adrenaline-pumping down-the-line rides, the rider always remains in full control, even depowered.
Perfectly matched to all four CORE surfboards, the Section 5 serves all surfing disciplines from small waves to large overhead breakers and also strapless freestyle. With these qualities, the Section 5 is also ideal for foiling.
World-class performance
The Section 5 was significantly co-developed by Brazilian team rider Gabriel Benetton, among others. It’s no surprise that Gabriel trusted the Section 5 on the GKA World Tour, where he claimed the World Champion title in Ibiraquera, Brazil, on October 27, 2024.
