- • More forward pull and increased speed
• Extra stiff structure for control and stability
• Super all-around performance
The Air V2 introduces a new level of refinement to the FreeWing range. higher performance through more stability, more speed, more pump-ability and more acceleration.NEW SHORT CENTER STRUT AND MORE SQUARED LEADING EDGE
The compact center strut and more squared leading edge create a direct balance, pulling you forward.
Manouvers are easier as all the tips are further away from the water. (Main changes on size 6, 7 and 8)
NEW BIG DIAMETER CENTER STRUT CONNECTION
Creates an even more solid connection between the center strut and the leading edge, keeping the wing from bending sideways.
Pumping becomes more efficient, improving acceleration and your high-end power/speed. All just easier.
NEW OPTIMIZED FORWARD WINDOWS
The unique long and narrow forward windows are spreading all the way down, ensuring full visibility for where you want to fly.
NEW MINI AFT WINDOWS
The mini aft windows above the center strut give you an essential glimpse of what’s behind you in a jibe.
All windows are carefully positioned for max viewing in critical situations and with minimal weight/stretch.
(Only available on size 6, 7 and 8)
NEW REFINED WINGTIPS
The FreeWing AIR V1 wingtips were already industry-leading. Now sizes 6, 7 and 8 are even easier for you to get out of the water when starting and during fun manouvers, as they have more inwards angle, avoiding water surface contact.
THICK, SOFT AND WIDE SPANNING HANDLES
For micro trimming at speed.
KEVLAR REINFORCEMENT
IN THE MOST CRITICAL AREA
The Kevlar, found in a bulletproof vest, is put in the most critical area to protect the FreeWing from wearing while minimizing weight.
ANGLED HANDLES
Angled handles for convenience getting started and to perform jibes and maneuvers.
NEW SIZE SPECIFIC LEASHES
Each leash is matching the strut’s length when stretched so, you will not get tangled if you fall down, yet always shrink back to have a leash that is as short as possible.
HARNESS LINE ATTACHMENT POINTS
The harness lines reduce fatigue in the arms, allowing you to ride for longer periods.
CENTRAL STRUT AIR VALVE
ON LARGER SIZE 5 AND ABOVE
For you to deflate the larger wings faster and easier.
NEW FREEWING BAG
The new FreeWing bag is big enough so, you can easily pack a FreeWing and a pump together.
HOSE CLAMP
ANOTHER INNOVATION FOR YOUR SAFETY
The hose clamp is used to isolate the air pressure in the central strut and leading edge. In the event of leaking bladder, the clamp ensures that some air remains in the wing.
OPEN THE HOSE CLAMP WHEN INFLATING / DEFLATING:
To open the hose clamp, push on the lever to allow the clamp to open.
CLOSE THE HOSE CLAMP DURING WING SESSION:
To close the hose clamp, squeeze the clamp together while feeling the teeth ratchet until clamp feels tight.
Big Diameter Centre Strut Connection
creates a rock-solid connection between the centre strut and the leading edge, keeping the wing from bending sideways. Making it easier to pump, accelerate, and control your high end power and speed.
HIGHLIGHTS AT A GLANCE:
▸ Big diameter centre strut connection
▸ Short centre strut and more squared leading edge ▸ Refined inwards pointing wingtips
▸ Optimised small windows
▸ Size specific leashes
▸ Larger bag to fit pump
Optimised Windows
The main windows are further forward so, you can see where you fly and low down to catch the action. the smaller size of the new windows helps keep the FreeWing at a light weight.
Refined Wingtips
the wingtips that already were industry leading have been refined for every size. Now they are even easier to get out of the water when starting and during fun manoeuvres, since they don‘t catch on the water surface. Sizes 6 and smaller also work well on non foiling boards.
Ultimate Handle Position
the two back handles are the ultimate position and the added forward handles are for entry level and transitions.
Short Centre Strut.
More Squared Leading Edge the shorter centre strut and more squared leading edge create a direct and balanced forward pull, as the centre of power is moved forward. the shorter centre strut makes manoeuvres easier as the tip is further away from the water.
Mini Aft Windows
the mini aft windows above the centre strut give you a glimpse of what’s behind you in a jibe.(On size 6, 7 and 8)
Bag
Bag with additional compartment for pump. (Pump not included in FreeWing package)
Size Specific Leashes
Each leash is matching the struts length when stretched so you will not get tangled if you fall down, yet always shrink back to have a leash that is as short as possible.
Nozzle Adapter
Allows you to turn the tiki Pump and V8 Pump into a FreeWing pump.
