Core Nexus 4 Kite

Wave + | Freestyle | Freeride

The Nexus 4 is your gateway to unleashing every aspect of the sport. 

A kite designed to meet all kitesurfing needs and more. It's Future C-Shape is a wonderfully agile and reactive, effortlessly translating the smallest steering impulses into pure, linear power. This is what make free riding so playful and good wave sessions possible, kite loops become comfortable, and achieving doubles comes within reach, thanks to its lightening-fast, seamless turns without any jerky movements. 

Set your goals and scrip the next chapter of your journey with the Nexus 4. 

About the 4th Generation

Featuring a thinner leading edge and weight savings, the Nexus 4 has made significant gains in drifting, allowing you to surf down the line forever. With Core Intelligent Trim System, you have the power to tailor your kite to your specific discipline to discover your big air or freestyle potential, ensuring every session is nothing short of extraordinary. 

Features

ExoTex 2 Leading Edge. Strong Material. Stiff Air Frame. 
The high-quality special Dacron remains low-stretch in all directions - even under extreme forces. Thanks to an elaborate annealing and coating process, ExoTex 2 achieves an extremely hit tensile strength and is still lightweight. You will experience the added value on the water through easier upstreaming, an explosive lift, and defined turning behavior. 

CoreTex 2 Canopy. Maximum Stability & Durability.
The CoreTex 2 canopy, which was developed exclusively for Core, is particularly robust and stiffened thanks to a triple reinforcing thread and a special coating process. CoreTex 2 sets the standard in breaking strength, rear resistance, longevity, UV protection, and elongation. Experience the tight, crisp, and signature feel that only a CoreTex kite delivers. 

ExoTex Light Struts. Lighter. Just as Robust. 
While the ultra resistance ExoTex 2 is used for the leading edge, the struts are made of ExoTex Light. It incorporates a radial thread pattern and emulsion (protective coating) process that reduces mass by approximately ten percent. This combination saves weight, optimizes turning behavior, and increases driftability. 

3 Strut Light Frame. Playfully Light. 
Two less struts means two more benefits. On the one hand, the Nexus 4 turns faster, more directly, and more freely than a comparable five-strut construction - which brings noticeable advantages in the wave, but also in kite loops. On the other hand, this makes it particularly light and therefore excellent in drifting. 

Future-C Shape. Speed & Precision. 
The Nexus 4 relies on the proven Future-C shape, which has been further optimized according to the demands of Nexus riders. Thanks to its moderate aspect ratio, it flies super-fast and direct, remains optimally perceptible and controllable in every turn. This harmonious tuning I rounded off with an incomparably precise pressure point. 

CIT Modes. Your Nexus - Your Preferences. 
Three setting options to adjust your Nexus 4 to your personal preferences and external conditions.
1. Flight characteristics at the leading edge: In wave mode tight turning and more depower, in freestyle mode more constant pull and wider loops. 
2. Turning characteristics at the tips: You can vary steering forces and turning speed between "super easy - easy - medium" at the three loops on the tips.
3. Backline Tension and kite feedback at the connection points: Choose from three different knots to adjust the directness of your control impulses. 

Surf Profile. Stable Drift and High Maneuverability. 
The wing profile is smoother and its highest point sits further back than on the XR8 and GTS6, resulting in super-stable drifting, even with significantly reduced tension on the control lines. Nevertheless, it hangs on the "throttle" again in a flash when you need kite pull. 

Instant Relaunch. Won't Let You Down. 
A slight tug on a control line is all it takes and the Nexus 4 is back in the sky. The reverse start capability is also fully given by the wider tips. 

Sensor Bar Ready. Genius Duo. (Bar sold separately)
The Nexus 4 is optimized for Core's ultralight Sensor Bar system. Together, they feature precise kite control, unbeatable safety features, and straightforward simplicity. Choose the new Sensor 3S Pro bar to unlock ultimate performance. 

Speed Valve 2. Maximum Airflow. 
The Speed Valve 2 easily connects to any standard twist lock pump hose, maximizing airflow, minimizing inflation times, and reducing pump effort. 

Radical Reaction Tips. Outstanding Reactivity & Agility. 
The tip geometry of the Nexus 4 allows for cat-like reflexes in big waves. The leading-edge profile ensures high reactivity and agility in kiteloops. 

GrinTex Patches. Abrasion-Resistant Front Tube. 
Anti-wear patches where you need them most. The extreme abrasion-resistant patches location on the leading edge segment seams and strut tips offer another layer of security against any potential beach hazards. 

Speed Pump System. Efficient Air Manager. 
With optimal access points to the struts, the air distribution system works effectively and efficiently. This inflation/deflation system is so exceptional that you might not even need your electric pump anymore.
