RIDER DESIGNED PERFORMANCE

Code V3 was developed alongside the same next-generation design evolution that shaped Code NXT V2. With a refined canopy profile, updated arc, and new structural layout, it brings cleaner feedback, smoother lift, and faster, more controlled handling into a Dacron construction. While the ALUULA-built Code NXT V2 delivers the highest level of New School Big Air performance, Code V3 carries the same core advancements into a more accessible package that still feels fast, stable, and incredibly capable when it’s time to send. This is the new Code V3, tuned for riders who want versatility without losing the performance progression.

THE FEEL

Code V3 gives you a more direct feel of where the kite is at all times. Steering becomes more intuitive, power strokes feel cleaner, and you always know where the kite is in the wind window without looking up. When you are going for a boost that matters more than anything. You send it when you know the kite is in the right spot, and when you are in the air you know exactly where it is. No surprises. No getting dropped.

The refined canopy profile and updated arc hold power cleaner and more consistently, even in gusty conditions. No spikes, no sudden surges. Power comes on smoothly and stays through the whole power stroke. That consistency gives you the confidence to ride harder, push your jumps, and trust the kite when the wind is doing something unpredictable.

V3 turns quicker and holds its shape better under load. Through boosts and turns it feels composed and precise rather than soft and unpredictable. It carries the same New School Big Air DNA as the Code NXT V2 in a Dacron construction that rides every session. The kite that gets out of your way and lets you go bigger.

Choose size based on rider weight, board type, and local wind range.
Use the size chart as a starting point, then adjust for your skill and conditions.
If you’re between sizes, size down for control or up for power.
If you’re unsure, contact Support and we’ll help you dial it.

Start with your most common session and what you want to feel on the water.
Use the Category and Attributes to compare lift, looping, drift, and bar pressure.
If you ride multiple disciplines, pick the kite that fits most days, not rare days.
Your setup and tuning can fine-tune the feel from there.

Relaunch depends on wind strength, technique, and water state.
Most models are designed for reliable relaunch and predictable recovery.
In lighter wind, relaunch takes more patience and correct line tension.
Practice relaunch in steady wind first to build confidence.

Start in the middle or “balanced” setting for your first sessions.
Then adjust for turning speed, bar pressure, and feel based on preference.
Small changes can make a big difference, so change one thing at a time.
If you want guidance, Support can recommend a setup for your goals.
