NICHOLAS A.B. I really enjoyed the first month of riding the NXS. You will find that it excels best in the surf and foiling. I really enjoy the direct turning, and good power delivery. I will probably use this all year for my surf kite, and will be using it on 18m lines. I only give the kite 4 stars because it definitely doesn't jump as high as similar 3 strut "all around kites". I tried it back to back with 2 other 3 strut designs, and it just felt like I couldn't get everything out of it in terms of boosting.
5 stars for the foil and surf side

Trey I have been loving my Core NXS 10m for kite foiling. It does everything my Xlite 2 10m does but with performance like my Pace Pros just more gentle.
It is much easier on me than the Pace Pro but has that sportiness of the Pace Pro that I like. I got a 17' high jump kite foiling in 15mph of wind the other day on this kite. Was controlled and comfortable. This kite works for the lightest kite for sessions to powered up boost sessions. Once I get overpowered on the NXS I move to the Pace Pro 12m or smaller for twin tip session.

Rick I normally ride a 10m core cite to foil which is what I took out with about 10-12 mph wind I was able to get up and going but had to work the kite pretty hard. I then came in and switched to a new 9m NXS. I was amazed at the difference the 9m had great pull and made getting on foil much easier also it felt great in the light wind no stall and easy to re launch. I love my core XR and my lite but I would say Core has done a great job with this new series. I am a fan.

Jason Just off the water from a super fun kite foil session at REAL in the Watermen’s Foil Garden. Southwest wind averaging around 16 mph—great conditions.
I rode the 8m NXS paired with Core Sensor 4S Bar, and Armstrong Foil Kit. The whole package was just plain perfect! I’ve been a big fan of the X-Lite for foiling and reluctant to get off it but upon the recommendation of Mark, the REAL Rental Shop Manager, I gave the NXS a go.
From the launch to landing, the kite was smooth, balanced, and predictable. It down loops perfectly and drifts exceptionally. Everything about the kite and bar felt premium. The power delivery to get up on foil was very smooth. Most of all compared to the X-lite was how quiet the kite was, adding to the peaceful and smooth session in the Watermen’s Foil Garden.
I’m psyched to try this kite in the waves soon and agree that this could be the best new “desert island” kite.
