Description

The 2027 North Orbit carries forward all the performance riders love, with enhanced aerodynamic efficiency and faster response. A refined profile and bridle geometry give the kite a more playful feel, with higher jumps, smoother flight and sharper steering.

A high aspect ratio frame boosts lift, power delivery and hangtime, while the N-Max2 airframe creates a slimmer, lighter LE, with increased sweep and slimmer wingtips for improved turning speed.

Offering pro technology at a competitive price, the Orbit is engineered to inspire confidence and progression, giving riders at every level more control in big air manoeuvres.

Features:

Updated bridle geometry for a more playful feel
Forward cambered profile refined for smoother flying
Slimmer LE for faster turning and more vertical lift
Response 5-point bridle
PTP2 transition panels contoured to reduce tension in the seams
High aspect ratio design for excellent loft and hangtime
Swept, slim wingtips for precise responsive steering
Pro Technology N-Max2 Airframe
Advanced N-RS3 Triple Ripstop Canopy

Features

Energetic Feel:

Extra bridle points support the slimmer LE, maintaining the rigidity of the lighter airframe and ensuring stability for controlled response and consistent performance, especially in high-end.

Aerodynamic Contoured PTP2:

A zigzag-shaped single transition panel helps reduce spanwise tension in the seams, smooths out the profile shape, and creates a cleaner transition from the leading edge to the canopy.

Fast Flying Thinner Leading Edge:

The kite is fast-flying with more direct turning, vertical lift, and improved low-end. The thinner LE also increases the loop speed, so it can fly forward and catch you quicker.

N-Max 2 Pro Technology Airframe:

For increased depower and bigger range, the lightweight, durable N-Max2 airframe material ensures a smooth, consistent response, more direct steering and more dynamic recovery.

Increased Lift:

The Orbit 's segmented arc is slightly narrower in the shoulders and wider in the wingtips for reduced drag and faster turning. The slightly deeper profile in the centre creates more lift.

Lightweight Durable N-RS3 Canopy:

A low-stretch, UV-resistant fabric with a triple-ripstop weave, advanced coating, and zero porosity, ensuring long life and shape retention.

Ultralight Stitchhold Technology:

Considering the force on the LE Closing Seam from inflation and steering movements, we've used a lightweight, high-tensile thread to enhance resistance to fatigue, impact, and wear.

Low Profile Bridle Lines:

Precise, low-drag, no-pulley bridle lines are pre-loaded and measured before cutting to improve accuracy and consistency, reduce shrinkage and elongation, and aid longevity.

Stable 5-Strut Performance:

Five struts provide additional canopy support, keeping the profile steady for incredible top-end stability, wind range and more control over the canopy movement at low attack angles.

Technology

Control Bar

North Navigator Control Bar System:

Engineered with Pro-innovation, the iconic Navigator now features a stronger, lighter bar with an extra comfortable, wear-resistant grip, and the Pro Connect V2 Quick Release, which minimises your risk of accidental unhooking or release.

Updated with SK75 Liros Dyneema lines for greater performance longevity, the refined ergonomic design offers exceptional value and tactile control. Knowing your kite's position just became second nature.

Features:

Patented symmetrical multibore tubing for frictionless line deployment and reload
Refined for smoother trimming action and line longevity
Extra secure single-action reload Connect V2 Quick Release
Minimised risk of accidental unhooking or release
Ceramic bearing for effortless manual unwind
Streamlined Toolless Interloop System with Freeride Loop
Compatible with Connect V2 Surf and Freestyle Loops
SK75 Liros Dyneema Lines
Triple comfort rubberized EVA wear-resistant grip

Safe Connect V2 QR:

Extra-secure single-action reload Quick Release with a stiffer security finger on the QR, plus smaller loop and 20mm extra travel, helps minimise the risk of accidental unhooking or release.

Super Comfortable Grip:

The most comfortable bar grip on the market, now with better abrasion resistance. Tactile offset finger bar, so you can feel when the control bar is oriented correctly.

20% Stronger and Lighter:

Borrowing from the Pro Technology, for 2027, a new fiber-filled polymer internal truss keeps the bar light while boosting stiffness by 20%.

100% Dyneema SK75 Flying Lines:

Strong, pre-stretched 1.8mm diameter flying lines for performance longevity. Our industry-standard high-load flying lines are more resistant to shrinkage.

Tool-less Modular Loops:

The Connect V2 Modular Toolless InterLoop system is compatible with three interchangeable loops: Freeride (included), Freestyle (with a Freestyle Leash Ring), and Surf Slider (rope harness).

Adjustable Bar Length:

Fine-tune the turning speed of your kite. Three adjustable sizes 50-55cm (L), 45-50cm (M) and 38-43cm (S). To change your bar length, pull the bar end cassettes out and rotate 180 degrees.

Smoother Cleated Trim System:

Proven on-demand adjustment, with updated power bracket for smoother trimming and reduced line wear, and a circular cleat base for consistent bar spin.

Customisable Line Lengths:

22m lines have a split at 12m, allowing riders to adjust the lines lengths to their preferences. Remove top 10m lines to customize with 8m, 6m or 2m line extensions.
