GRADUATED RIPSTOP
The canopy features Ripstop 5x5 in the front and Ripstop 6x6 in the back for the optimum balance of strength to weight. Transverse paneling holds shape under load and reduces stretch over time.
HD POLY X-PLY RIPSTOP WINDOWS
The Pro models feature an ultralight X-Ply Ripstop. Integration into the panel layout ensures a perfect balance of visibility, lightweight construction and structural integrity, allowing you to keep your focus on the ride.
AEROTEX
The central material of the FireFly PRO leading edge features our latest pro-level construction material, AeroTex. This high-tech composite is composed of woven UHMWPE (Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene) with a black finish, enhanced with a protective film on one side and reinforced with Aramid X-Ply in the core. This combination offers exceptional strength, durability, and resistance to wear while maintaining a lightweight profile, perfect for demanding conditions and allowing us to reduce leading edge diameter while increasing stiffness.
AEROTEX LIGHT (NEW)
Used in selected areas of the wing such as the wingtips, AeroTex Light is the latest evolution of our high-performance material concept. This new white version features a slightly modified X-Ply structure with wider spacing, resulting in a material that is approximately 10% lighter than the standard black AeroTex (73 gsm vs. 82 gsm). Despite its reduced weight, AeroTex Light retains excellent strength, stability, and responsiveness—ideal for minimizing swing weight and enhancing handling in the most sensitive parts of the wing.
FIREFLY PRO VS FLY IV PRO
The FireFly Pro is our true all-round, high-performance wing. Suited for everything from wave riding to downwind bump chasing to upwind / downwind racing. Tuned with a slightly lower aspect ratio, it offers a shorter wingspan and the most neutral feel on the wave. The Fly IV Pro is our high-performance freeride wing which can also very happily double as a freestyle wing for those looking for a little more straight line performance all round especially upwind. FireFly Pro features AeroTex in the LE and Strut and Fly IV Pro features Aluula in the LE and strut, making it our most premium wing in terms of materials.
