2027 Slingshot Code NXT V2 Kiteboarding Kite
Clear feedback, smooth vertical lift and fast loops with a supportive catch.
The Slingshot Code NXT V2 is built for riders progressing through bigger jumps, faster loops and technical aerial combinations. Developed with Jeremy Burlando, it pairs an ALUULA laminate airframe with a redesigned trailing edge and a fixed seven-point bridle. The result is a connected feel at the bar, controlled acceleration through loops and consistent support as you load the kite for takeoff.

Why Choose the Code NXT V2?
Know Where Your Kite Is
Predictable bar feedback helps you judge kite position and time your next input while focusing on the jump, rotation or landing.
Lift With Control
Smoother vertical lift makes the takeoff feel more deliberate, giving you a composed platform for late rotations and technical trick combinations.
Loop With Cleaner Recovery
Fast acceleration, a controlled loop arc and a supportive catch help you connect the send, loop and landing with more consistent timing.
Stay Connected Under Load
The revised airframe and bridle keep the kite composed as you edge and load up, with calmer steering feedback in gusty conditions.
Construction and V2 Updates
ALUULA Laminate Airframe
ALUULA laminate is used in the leading edge and struts to support a light, stiff structure that holds its shape under load.
CODE95 Trailing Edge
The redesigned trailing edge targets flutter and drag, contributing to the V2’s faster, cleaner looping response.
Seven-Point Fixed Bridle
The new fixed bridle replaces pulleys, supporting the kite’s structure and delivering a direct, predictable connection at the bar.
Refined Arc and Paneling
Updated arc geometry and panel layout improve vertical lift while preserving the familiar Code NXT character.
Reworked Leading Edge and Seams
Revised leading-edge construction and seams reduce weight and support a stiffer, more responsive feel.
Balanced Steering Setup
The middle steering-line setting provides a useful starting point for tuning bar pressure, turning response and overall feel.
V2 also receives an updated fiberglass batten layout.
