The kite everyone is talking about. The kite that won everything that could be won at Red Bull King Of The Air 2020. Danish Nick Jacobsen's signature kite. The North Orbit is a kite whose performance already speaks for itself. Despite the modest age of the kite and the brand, this model has almost surpassed everything we have previously seen from a kite. Not only that the professional kite surfers can get something almost unreal out of this kite, it is also aimed at everyone. We have already tested the kit in our school setup and here it plays even for the student. Without promising too much, here you have a kite that delivers for all levels.
North describes the kit as follows:
FREERIDE / BIG AIR
Big jumps. Big hang time. Big wind range. Designed from the ground up, this kite will rocket you upwind fast, with anti-gravity boosting capabilities. Optimized for all conditions, the North Orbit is a predictable kite that can be flown in the unpredictable. Light bar pressure allows effortless and precise steering with a massive sweet spot. A stiff frame provides a stable platform to help with overpowered airs and megaloops in gusty conditions. Tested by nature and proven by our athletes. Jesse Richman trusted the Orbit to win the crown, Nick Jacobsen to take out the highest score and Marc Jacobs for the highest jump at the 2020 Red Bull King of the Air.
FEATURES
Phenomenal loft and hangtime
Wide flat 2-stage arc supported by a reinforced exo-skeleton frame for precision boosting capabilities. The Orbit boosts and loops with ease and is guaranteed to take your breath away. The flattened 2-stage arc design enables a smooth curved efficient central region of the kite to produce power, with straighter wing tips for a more dynamic steering response. The Orbit makes the most use of its area, so it has the best hangtime and best power delivery for its size.
Powerful 5-strut performance
High performance 5-strut kite for incredible stability in a wide range of conditions. A powerful all-terrain high performance kite.
Incredible upwind performance
A reduced leading edge diameter gives the Orbit a low drag profile, making it sit further forwards in the wind window for greater power and efficiency
