Description

The explosive pop, enhanced impulse slack and powerful turning response of a new 5-strut Modern-C kite will set your heart pumping. A new twist on an old-skool C-kite, with improved depower, the new 5-line North Pulse comes alive in unhooked Freestyle.

More line slack line than ever before gives you time to land even the most technical tricks. Surprisingly stable and user-friendly for a C-kite, the Pulse will give you that competitive edge.

Enhanced impulse slack means landing even the most technical tricks becomes instinctive. Made to excel in strong winds, and overcome whatever mother nature can throw at you.

Modern C-Kite Design:

Impressive line slack for handle passes and unhooking. The kite provides explosive pop, and then lines stay untensioned, giving you time to perform your most impressive freestyle tricks.

Efficient and Smooth Handling:

The Pulse has a narrower span to help you build up speed for unhooked tricks. It’s curved central arc and profile entry produces power and the flatter wingtips enhance dynamic steering.

Performance Tuning Options:

Finetune your bar pressure or steering impulse on the rear wing tip. The Pulse has two settings – closer to the wingtip for lighter bar pressure, closer to the centre for more direct.

Powerful Turns:

The front lines are attached directly to the wingtips, without a bridle, resulting in a powerful steering impulse, and higher bar pressure, which contributes to the impressive pop and slack.

Features

Technology

High Performance N-HTRS Canopy:

All North kites are manufactured using North High Tenacity Ripstop (N-HTRS) polyester yarn canopy material for lightness, high tear strength, zero porosity and longevity.

Duralite Seam Protection:

Lightweight Duralite reinforcement patches create a durable buffer along the LE seams, protecting the stitching from chafing and abrasion.

5-Lines:

The 5th line is loaded to support the arc shape and ensure safe relaunch. The single bridle allows for a more 'open' shape than a non-loaded five-line-kite. *Requires a 5-Line Control Bar.

Leading Edge Segments:

Each panel of the leading edge is curved, for a smoother, more aerodynamic arc shape. The curved panels eliminate the need for transition panels between the LE and the canopy.

N-Dure2 Inflated Structures:

The Pulse airframe and wingtips are constructed from the highest-quality industry-proven N-Dure2 Dacron, ensuring longevity and durability for protection against chafing when self-launching.

Durable High Tensile LE Seams:

Considering force from inflation and steering movements, we’ve used a lightweight thread with high breaking strength and shock absorption to enhance resistance to fatigue, impact, and wear.

5-Strut Stability:

The 5-strut design provides additional canopy support, keeping the profile steady.

Lightweight Trailing Edge:

2-ply canopy on the TE saves weight without affecting durability. The kite can hold its profile for increased performance and lift, but is also dynamic, flexible and can twist to turn.

Lightweight Bladders:

Bladders make up a bigger weight percentage than any other material in a kite. Lighter kites fly more efficiently, have better performance in lighter winds, faster steering and more lift.
