New handles, new tech, new aspect ratio! Here's what's new with the XPS MKII: New Dino Link System & Hard Carbon Handles: The MKII comes standard with comfortable and durable hard carbon handles, inspired by luxury car interiors.

[01:33] Consistent Aspect Ratio: Enjoy a consistent feel across all sizes (2m to 6.5m in half-meter increments) thanks to the new aspect ratio.

[02:05] Enhanced Wind Range & Stability: The XPS has always been known for its impressive wind range, and the MKII takes it to the next level with improved top-end control and stability. [03:54] Smaller sizes also offer increased control. [04:01] Cross Panel Sail Design: This unique feature, carried over from the original XPS, extends to the trailing edge and wing tip, providing a rigid shape and locking in the draft for optimal performance. [02:22] Downturn Wing Tips: These tips provide a snappy and poppy feel, allowing for quick turns and efficient use of available wind. [02:46] They also contribute to a crisp, taut feel and smooth transitions. [02:57] Excellent Flagging Ability: The rigid hard handle makes flagging out effortless, perfect for riding surf swells and waves.
