The Armstrong X-Wing Performance represents the next generation of wing design, engineered for riders seeking the perfect combination of speed, efficiency, control, and lightweight handling. Positioned above the XPS in the Armstrong range, the X-Wing delivers premium performance with a refined and intuitive feel that immediately inspires confidence while offering a significant step forward in responsiveness and overall efficiency.
Designed for intermediate to advanced riders, the X-Wing excels across a wide range of disciplines, from high-performance freeride sessions and racing to wave riding and strong-wind conditions. Its advanced airframe construction, high aspect geometry, and cutting-edge materials create a wing that feels incredibly light in the hands while maintaining exceptional stability and control.
Whether you're chasing speed, boosting jumps, carving waves, or pushing your limits in challenging conditions, the X-Wing offers the performance and precision to elevate every session.
The X-Wing Performance is built around a refined high-aspect design that increases efficiency, extends the wind range, and improves high-speed control. This optimized geometry delivers smooth and predictable power while maintaining excellent stability, allowing riders to stay comfortable and composed even when conditions become demanding.
Its lightweight airframe utilizes advanced materials and a reduced leading-edge diameter to minimize overall weight without sacrificing structural rigidity. Weighing less than 2 kg in selected sizes, the X-Wing feels exceptionally agile, reducing rider fatigue while improving responsiveness and maneuverability throughout the entire wind range.
The airframe incorporates advanced Ultra-PE X-Ply technology, providing outstanding tear resistance, minimal stretch, and superior shape retention under load. A protective film layer prevents moisture absorption while increasing canopy stability and long-term performance.
Armstrong’s proven Cross Panel Sail Design (XPS) further enhances canopy stability by optimizing load distribution throughout the wing. Strategic panel orientations reduce distortion and maintain an efficient aerodynamic profile, resulting in consistent power delivery, increased control, and a highly connected feel while riding.
The canopy is constructed using premium Teijin D3 Technoforce fabric, chosen for its exceptional tension retention, durability, and refined flying characteristics. Reinforced DLE 130 panels provide additional protection in high-stress areas, ensuring long-term reliability and performance.
Removable carbon battens integrated into the trailing edge help minimize canopy flutter while maintaining optimal tension and control. Riders can easily adjust the battens to suit different wind strengths and personal preferences.
For maximum safety and visibility, the X-Wing features highly visible Signal Pink reflective accents and crystal-clear TPU windows that provide excellent visibility without compromising weight or durability.
