Flux v1

Ozone Flux - When Performance is Paramount

Flying fast, bred to shred and toned and tough from tip-to-tip, the all new Flux V1 has been designed by perfectly orienting proven, cutting edge materials to deliver extreme aerodynamic performance with a huge sweet spot.
After almost 80 prototypes, the Flux flies faster than any wing we?ve ever made. Not only does it create more immediate power, but thanks to the new pre-loaded leading edge, the Flux?s precisely tightened canopy structure can now hold and manage far more wind without deforming.

The Flux V1 features more panels than any other wing in our range to help reach the ideal load bearing structure and a super tight canopy for next level handling.

Each size in the range has an optimised shape to ensure you feel like you?re riding the same family of designs. Whether charging super high into wind on the smaller sizes, or holding more wind than you could imagine on the bigger sizes, every Flux model will help you ride faster and in more control.

The advantages of using a wing with less drag and reduced luffing will continue to reveal itself as your moves flow far more sweetly.

PRE-LOADED LEADING EDGE - Say goodbye to baggy canopy cloth and hello to more performance and a longer lasting shape.
Using a performance Dacron material that is rigid and strong has allowed our designers to pre-load the leading edge and shape it to experience drastically less deformation under load. Combined with optimised sail shaping and horizontal panels for a tighter canopy, the Flux delivers huge aerodynamic performance gains
20% LIGHTER AND STIFFER PERFORMANCE DACRON - The 125g performance Dacron of the leading edge is also used in the strut and further accentuates the superb rigidity in the frame. In combination with the new rigid handles the connection levels feel like you?re part of the wind! Buckling under pressure is now far less of a concern and the Flux?s pre-loaded leading edge and stiffened strut work sublimely well in partnership with the other design features. A new, bigger sweet spot in handling will allow you to find more control in stronger conditions, point higher into the wind, reach higher speeds and also pump with greater efficiency, which makes the wing?s bottom end even more potent.
MULTIPLIED SEAM STRENGTH AND CLEANER AERODYNAMICS - The leading edge features a high cell count which creates a more perfectly curved shape, resulting in a purer aerofoil. The Flux is also designed with many more horizontal panels in the sail itself, distributing the load better along the warp of the fabric. From strut to tip, each seam creates a stronger line connection in the sail and takes more of the load, reducing canopy stretch. We build natural strength into our products and therefore, more often than not, you?ll find our designs are lighter than even our competitors? ?exclusive? reduced weight designs.

CARBON FIBRE HANDLES WITH EVA GRIP - Ergonomically angled front and back carbon fibre handles with EVA grip provide maximum control and comfort with incredible feel and response. The front handle mount features a soft bumper to protect your head and board during water starts.
FORCE FIELD PERIMETER = PRIME PERFORMANCE FOR LONGER - Positioned specifically where canopy loads are greatest, a new, stronger canopy material on the leading and trailing edges provides a force field shield around the central mainsail section. Channelling greater forces and helping to create a cleaner foil, further advantages are the reduced stretch and the fact that the Flux will maintain a better wing shape over its lifespan.

FLUX CAPACITY - The capacity of this wing is almost endless by today?s standards. You simply have to experience how it continues to hold and process more and more power, opening up your riding potential beyond comparison. The Flux is for riders who want to get up to blistering speeds and enjoy staggering aerodynamic performance, for jumping, carving, wave riding, racing and everything in between. The Flux V1 is designed with the best materials in a high aspect ratio and swept leading edge planform to deliver explicit new levels of speed and control.

WHAT YOU FEEL:

• Secure, in control, and ready to push it!
• Big wind range! Very good power generation in light wind conditions while being easy to handle in high winds
• Less drag and better stability for over-head manoeuvres such as tacks and gybes
