Core Section 5

Your surf experience, upgraded

Approved by the outstanding surfer Willow, who has put it to the test in the firing barrels of Indonesia’s reef breaks. And proven by the freshly crowned World Champion Gabriel Benetton, we’re excited to introduce CORE's new world-class wave kite. 

We’ve made significant upgrades to the new Section 5 for an even smoother drift. Thanks to a new and intelligent volume distribution, it offers enhanced stability in the wingtips and an overall faster turning and flying performance.

The material blend of ExoTex 2 Dacron and CoreTex 2 fabric is the secret to ultra-direct, fast steering for your aggressive turns and cutbacks — defining features of the Section’s surf-ready, dynamic and responsive flight. This wave kite stands out with unmatched control. With breathtaking and adrenaline-pumping down-the-line rides, you will always maintain control, even depowered. 

Perfectly matched to all four CORE surfboards, the Section 5 excels in every surf style, from small waves to big overhead breaks, and even strapless freestyle. With its qualities, the Section 5 is also ideal for foiling.
