The 1120 is the actual flat area of the kite. 11.20 sq meters. This does not take into account the size of the flat area of the kite when it is inflated - which is why the S-arc produces slightly less power than the same sized C-shaped LEI. When it fills up, the edges pull in reducing the surface area of the kite.

Happy Winds!
