THE DESIGN DIFFERENCE
By utilizing the most advanced materials and manufacturing techniques in the industry, The Code NXT
is a groundbreaking 3 strut kite that sets a new standard for Big Air Kiteboarding. Our Sheet and Send
Code NXT designed around our NEW Progressive Arc Canopy will help you achieve gravity defying
boosts and loops while providing intuitive handling and a consistent and smooth pull for sending that
mega loop.
By Designing the Code NXT with our higher aspect Aluula NXT Airframe and our NXT TrimFlite Bridle
System we were able to achieve unrivalled performance while maintaining the bomber durability
that Slingshot is known for. With up to a 30% overall weight savings compared to Dacron kites and
an increase in stiffness of the airframe, the Code NXT will launch you to the moon while providing
intuitive steering and generating more apparent wind due to the Progressive Arc Canopy. The Code
NXT will feel like it’s anticipating your thoughts and executing them seamlessly allowing you to focus
on your technical progression.
WHO IT’S FOR
The Code NXT offers the next step up in Big Air performance from the Code V2. For the riders
looking to break their personal height records, send the largest powered kite loops and impress
everyone at the beach, including themselves.

NXT Airframe Design
Utilizing the most premium laminate known to wind sports enthusiasts, we created a kite with the highest stiffness to weight ratio. Stiffness creates intuitive response while reduced weight increases the acceleration which combined, make the Code NXT the fastest kite we have ever produced. When riding you will feel the kite constantly accelerating through the window allowing you to ride a 10m while your friends are on 14’s.
NXT TrimFlite Bridle System
Featuring the SK99 bridle line, this stretch resistant bridle falls into the same design principles as our NXT Airframe. The SK99 bridle lines have the highest stiffness to weight ratio of any bridle line on the market. The increase in response with a reduction in drag generates faster acceleration through the window.
Progressive Arc Canopy
The Progressive Arc Canopy in the new Code NXT introduces a higher aspect profile compared to its predecessor, enhancing the kite’s aerodynamics for improved on water performance. This innovative design not only increases lofty hang time and super-fast turning speed but also ensures precise control for the rider.
4×4 Canopy Tech
The strongest, stiffest, and most durable canopy material used in any kite. 4X4 Canopy Tech is reinforced ripstop nylon with a 4X4 weave that delivers unrivaled tear resistance, near-zero stretch, and season-after-season durability.
Rider Customization System
Fully customize the performance of the Code NXT with our Rider Customization
System. RCS allows you to fine tune the handling, power delivery, and performance of the Code NXT to align with your riding style and conditions. Utilizing the RCS, a rider can incrementally shorten or lengthen the flying and power lines, which easily adjusts the Code NXT’s turning speed, level of power, angle of attack, and bar pressure.
One Pump Speed System
The patented Slingshot invention now with increased tube diameters for cleaner airflow and repositioned tubes to be more streamlined and durable.
High Pressure Inflation
In 2025 we made the decision to move towards the high pressure valve, originally designed for the military to inflate their boats quickly while also giving them the ability to deflate just as quickly if not faster. When implementing this in the kite it gives the rider the most durable and fastest inflation and deflation system available on the market. Inflation takes half a much effort and deflation takes half as much time.
