Review Core Kiteboarding XR5 vs XR4.

The new Core XR5 just came out this month. We tested the new XR5 10m next to the older XR4 10m kite serie. The differences, a bit more compact shape, a stronger strut construction and a different kite feel in jumping and turning circle. We hope you like the video, sorry for the sometimes bad sound, we had a 14-20 knots of wind in the mic.

I have a xr4 9m. It is the best Kite that I ever had. Once you have one, you will only want to ride it, even in the low range despite of the fact that you have a bigger kite. The only cons is the price, they are a little bit expensive, but you definitely get what you pay, the quality is superb. If you can, stock yourself with different sizes!!! Thanks for the review.

Thank you for the comparison.
Would have like to know how the "improved" bar feel was like.

i'm owning three kites size 17m.
Ozone zephyr - 2011
airush dna 17 - 2017
core xr 17 LW - 2017
maybe the core is good but it is not the best, In low wind (7 -9 knots) Ozone is better than Core. in LW core is difficult to fly - DNA fly's better
At 12+ knots core fly's nice, I do not understand why they wrote LW on core

Best kite in the market ! If it’s time to get a new kite don’t think twice and go for Corekites. It’s solid like hell. And gives you a feeling like you’re always safe when you’re attaced it! Germans made it !!
