Description

A performance freeride kite designed to excel in every condition.

Whether you’re reaching for the sky, the surf or just a cool cruise around the bay the Reach does it all.

North kiteboarding has fused the best bits from the Orbit, Pulse and Carve to develop an all-purpose performance freeride kite that is the perfect companion for your travels – especially as it is so light.

With a fuller profile that generates efficient power and fantastic stability, the lighter 3-strut designed Reach has a tight turning radius, light impulse and bar pressure and fast and responsive steering. This is your go-to kite for big jumps, freestyle, freeride, or just wave-riding in lighter wind; and it’s the perfect match for the North Sonar Foils.

The larger 13m and 15m sizes offer a powerful light-wind specific kite, deliberately designed with a predictable, consistent drive forward for Twin-Tip riding long after everyone else has gone in.

All conditions. All purpose. All ways ready. The Reach Performance Freeride is the one kite you'll always reach for. Your desert-island kite.
