The main take away from this video is the following:

- Extremely responsive handling
Manufacturers notes and info:
Whether it’s free flying, wave riding or freestyle, the all new A-Wing XPS delivers next generation performance, power and control.
An innovative cross panel sail (XPS) design provides an outstanding level of connection when riding. This futuristic panel layout greatly reduces sail distortion by improving load distribution and frame rigidity. This gives all the wing sizes a very direct and controlled feel for easy and comfortable flying. Removable carbon fibre battens minimise trailing edge flutter and provide easy canopy tuning for varying wind strengths.
A newly developed hybrid carbon handle (HCH) design has a rigid carbon interior skeleton and soft padded exterior. This combination offers the best balance of control, comfort and safety.
Sizes:
2.6, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, 4.6, 5.3, 6.1m2.
Package:
The A-Wing XPS comes complete with a carry bag, wrist leash, extra battens and a patch kit.
