I was just wondering what it means by "cave cut" with the X series wings? Whats the difference between that wing and say other horseshoe shaped wings?
 
Hey Scuba_Shane,

The "Cave Cut" design just means that it is compact and streamlined while using a doubles rig. This means that there is less drag when moving through the water and less chance that it will get snagged when maneuvering through tight spaces.

The X-Series wing is a pretty conventional horseshoe design doubles bladder shell that is made from some heavy duty laminated 1000 denier Cordura and has a pinch puncture resistant inner bladder that is made from a 15mm thick urethane bladder.

Hope that helps!

Mike
