After two years in development, the new A-Wing XPS Mk II is here. Whether it’s next level wing surfing, freestyle, or the Wednesday night local race, it’s all in the cards with the A-Wing XPS Mk II. This evolution of the A-Wing delivers greater stability and upwind speed along with the all new Dyna-Link handle system for seamless adjustability between carbon handles or a boom. It’s an industry leading blend of power, efficiency, and modularity.
- Small Dyna-Link Boom or Handles are suitable for wing sizes: 2.0, 2.5, 3.0
- Medium Dyna-Link Boom or Handles are suitable for wing sizes: 3.5, 4.0
- Large Dyna-Link Boom or Handles are suitable for wing sizes: 4.5, 5.0, 5.5, 6.0, 6.5, 7.0, 8.0
Airframe Setting the tone for performance. Precisely engineered for stability and upwind speed, the XPS Mk II’s airframe gives it the bandwidth to work with real-world conditions that aren’t always ideal, so you can focus on your ride and let the wing do its thing.
Canopy The most advanced canopy on the market. The XPS Mk II’s canopy is the most advanced wing canopy on the market. Teijin D3 Technoforce material laid up in the Cross Panel Sail design make for stunning performance with real-world durability.
Handles You’ve got options. Dyna-Link is an interchangeable strut handle system for the A-Wing XPS. It allows you to choose separate handles or a boom, is quick and easy to assemble with zero hardware, and is pre-positioned so the wing is precisely balanced in flight. Modular The choice is yours. The A-Wing XPS Mk II is compatible with either newly designed carbon handles, a carbon boom, or Hybrid Carbon Handles. Handle and boom lengths scale S-M-L according to specific wing sizes. The new carbon handles and carbon boom both have a circular profile carbon core that’s made with the same tech that goes into our carbon foils. Overtop the carbon core is a textured EVA foam exterior that’s direct and precise yet comfortable for long sessions. The Hybrid Carbon Handles maintain the same flatter design and construction found on the first generation XPS, now integrated into the Dyna-Link system. Harness loops are stitched into the strut. Dyna-Link Less is more. The Dyna-Link design is strong, simple, and highly functional without any added fluff. It lacks added wear points like tracks, hardware, or plastic and instead opts for carbon fiber handle towers that link to the strut by hooking into super strong Dyneema anchor loops. Attached or removed when the strut is deflated, the handles lock solidly into place once the strut inflates to pressure. Note: The Mk II’s strut is now a different pressure than the leading edge.
Airframe: Precisely engineered for stability and upwind speed with the durability to take on real-world abuse. - Cross Panel Sail Design: Greatly reduces sail distortion, improves frame rigidity, and packs in more power. - Dyna-Link Handle System: Choose separate handles or a boom with quick and easy assembly, no hardware required. - Trailing Edge Battens: Minimizes canopy flutter and provides easy tuning for varying wind strengths. - Windows: Horizontal visibility for safety that’s lightweight, exceptionally clear, and won’t yellow or crack over time.

Taking what we learned from the Downwind boards initially introduced in 2023, the evolution of these boards is faster, more refined and even more stable per size for riders from rookie through advanced. Like the previous generation, these boards are also terrifically versatile and are excellent for lightwind winging and SUP surf foiling.
Seeking greater efficiency and user friendliness in the paddle popup, each size has been lengthened by 3.5-5% to improve paddling speed and increase stability. The foil tracks are now further forward as well for increased manoeuvrability and lift. When combined with subtle refinements to the rocker line and overall shape of the tail, these boards lift off the water exceptionally cleanly and easily.
Inspired by the new deck grip design on our Wing FG foilboards, the Downwind and Downwind Performance boards include a fully redesigned grip tailored specifically to provide riders with maximum control, comfort and versatility when downwinding. In conjunction with the flatter deck shape, this grip features raised central bars above the foil tracks and elevated blocks in each corner of the pad, front and back, for intuitive foot placement.
Increased length: Greater paddling speed with improved stability and tracking for easier paddling.
Split foredeck:Inspired by our Wing FG boards, the split anhedral foredeck shape sheds water with ease.
Refined bow:Improved paddling efficiency and touchdown recovery and reduced swing weight for pumping and carving.
Minimal deck recess:A flatter deck to hold more volume and shed standing water more quickly.
New deck grip:Like on our Wing FG board range, raised deck grip arch bars and front/rear corner blocks provide intuitive foot placement references.
Diamond V tail:All new tail shape with significantly more rocker and an extra chine to improve takeoff performance and minimise tail touchdowns when pumping and carving.
Foil track placement:Pushed further forward for increased lift and manoeuvrability.
Carbon foil tracks: Proprietary carbon fibre foil tracks are keyed directly into the fibres of the stringers for a fully integrated construction.
Proven construction: Deck to bottom i-beam dual stringers provide maximum structural rigidity and durability.

Advancing the design of the origiinal Flying V, making it a bit wider and more compact Jimmy designed the Flying V2 to be stable on the water while beeing agile and light on foil. Based on its trades the board is well suited for the SUP- and Wing Foiler.
The proven waterplane bottom is pulled all the way back to the foil base and provides easy liftoff and touch down while maintaining stability during the launch phase. Like the Flying VM these boards re-direct the rider back up onto the foil with little drag when they touch down and give an easy and fast take off.

The R series are offered in two larger sizes as well now, the 960R and the 1075R. They are both an incredible addition to any foiler’s quiver, set to be very well received by learners for their user-friendly nature. For the experienced rider, these bigger foils enable foiling in almost windless conditions, leveraging even minimal ocean energy for remarkable rides.
The High Modulus R Series are made withHigh Modulus carbonand are of the build quality users will be familiar with from other Code Foils products.
These wings are designed for a wide speed range and efficient pumping.They are not as manoeuvrable as some other wings, but they glide forever and still turn. We call them our “longboard foils” because of their long, stable design.
The R Series High Modulus have an incredible low end for their size.James Casey demonstrated this by winning the M2O with a flatwater start and a challenging finish in upwind conditions. Ben Tardrew also used the 860R to battle for a win and end up on the podium in a nearly windless Hood River challenge against the best in the world.
Please note that the R series front wings are not designed to be jumped. Jumping the R Series front wings will void warranty.
The larger 960 and 1075 offer enhanced performance for lighter wind conditions and serve as a gateway for those learning downwind foiling and linking bumps

These high-aspect-ratio tails mark our first expansion of rear wings in our range. James used the 120R in the M20 to secure victory. They offer incredible glide when paired with both the S and R series front wing. Despite their small area, the aspect ratio delivers exceptional efficiency and performance.
