AIR Team
Lightweight, Manouverable, Durable
Developed in conjunction with our wave and freestyle Dream Team, the AIR Team is a performance-oriented wing for freestyle, wave and downwinding.
The AIR Team is the first model in the FreeWing range to incorporate our next-generation Ultra X canopy material — developed in conjunction with Challenge Sailcloth and exclusive to FreeWing. This latest technological breakthrough brings new levels of durability and low-stretch characteristics at no additional weight. Combined with the proven Ho’okipa Ultra PE high-pressure leading edge and strut, the AIR Team delivers a wing that is unrivalled in both durability and performance.

HO’OKIPA ULTRA PE LEADING EDGE & STRUT
Unmatched durability, lightweight and responsiveness. Ho’okipa is a unique composite built with a reliable woven structure, supercharged through Ultra-PE fibres, which are 32x stronger than polyester at the same weight. This tensile strength allows a Ho’okipa leading edge & strut to be inflated to significantly higher pressures, creating a wing that is lighter and more responsive than anything else on the market.

INNOVATIVE SEAM CONSTRUCTION
We developed a new seam construction that can tolerate higher PSI in the leading edge and strut. Attaining a high-pressure airframe improves the stiffness, responsiveness and overall performance of the wing.
CENTER STRUT CONNECTION NEW
The tapered strut features a wide and strong connection at the base, creating a stiffer overall airframe.
Pumping becomes more efficient, improving acceleration and high-end power/ speed.
MEDIUM CANOPY TENSION
Provides consistent power delivery and excellent flagged-out stability. Also, more stability and lift from the canopy in maneuvers, making tacking and gibing a dream.
OPTIMISED GEOMETRY
Medium-aspect wing ratio together with a short strut for compact power balance makes the wing more maneuverable, performing better through tacks & gybes, and when flagged out.
DRAG REDUCTION WINGTIPS
Thin optimized wingtips reduce drag, enhancing stability for a smoother glide when the wing is flagged out.
COMFORT STRUT SHAPE
The back handle does not need to be as pulled in and allows for a more extended arm position, increasing overall comfort and balance.
OPTIMISED DIHEDRAL
The leading edge features a slight dihedral to maintain significant power whilst gaining better stability when the wing is flagged out.
LARGE BAG WITH PUMP HOLDER
Premium wing bag with a pump strap mount system and a wide opening for easy packing & unpacking of the wing. Features pockets for handles and accessories. Keep water bottle close or quickly stash items in the side pocket. Designed with mesh ventilation.
SIZE-SPECIFIC LEASHES
Each leash complements the strut‘s length when stretched out to prevent entanglement during wipeouts, & recoils back to have a leash that is as short as possible when riding.
NOZZLE ADAPTER INCLUDED
Allows you to turn your inflatable SUP pump into a FreeWing pump.
LIGHT WIND – THREE STRUT DESIGN NEW
Available on 5.5m and 6m
The three strut configuration stabilizes the additional area in the wingtips and allows adding more surface into a given wingspan to create a lower aspect wing. Additionally, the wingtip struts stabilize the canopy for increased top-end speed.
