N-Weave45, by North Sails Advanced Textiles, is 3x stiffer and 2x torsionally stiffer than a traditional Dacron (176gsm). The stiffer airframe transfers wind energy into greater forward speed, explosive boost and hangtime for freestyle tricks.
Engineered from a new high tensile strength woven fiber with cross-weave reinforcement, the N-Weave45 airframe creates a stiffer, lighter rig that holds its shape when under load and has a highly efficient power delivery.
The biaxial 45-degree laminate helps to control the biax and torsion of the airframe, resulting in less deflection and movement and a stiffer overall frame during flight.
30% Lighter
The weight savings translates into greater performance, more efficient power delivery in light air, and makes the wing easier to handle in all conditions.
Woven Technology
N-Weave also has very high cut and abrasion resistance. The UPE fibres that make up N-Weave are known for their resistance to water, moisture, most chemicals, UV and microorganisms. UPE is also known for its durability and toughness.
