North CODE ZERO KITEPerformance Foil2024

Lighter N-MAX Dacron

We’ve used lighter weight N-Max Dacron in the leading edge and strut for stiffness and durability. The N-Max ensures the airframe meets the structural demands without adding unnecessary weight. Using a lighter Dacron on the leading edge and struts saves a significant amount of weight, without compromising strength or durability. The Dacron has a more balanced weave for a crisp, lively feel. The symmetrical yarn pattern gives the material a lower bias elongation that snaps back to its original shape faster. This provides the kite with a crisp response, more direct steering and more dynamic recovery.

Newly revised bridle

The bridlepoints are designed to sit on the intersegments, ensuring the bridle loads through a thicker part of the LE for a more direct/solid feel. Moving the bridle toward the outside of the kite also places less load through the centre of the kite, creating more stability and lighter bar pressure.

More direct steering

The balanced geometry ensures the kite has minimal flutter, but maintains its upwind capability. Easy to fly, stable and evenly tensioned, the Code Zero won’t over-fly or front stall. The balanced geometry also makes flying one-handed a breeze. This means you can maintain your preferred stance when changing direction, without getting into an awkward position.

Smoother aerodynamics and minimal flutter

The less weight it has, the easier it is to fly. We wanted to see how light you could go without losing performance or making it too fragile. Engineered using the lightest materials possible, we’ve taken a minimalist approach – there’s nothing on it you don’t need. This helps contribute to the Code Zero’s playful, agile feel and fun, dynamic steering.

More sizes for 2024

Two layers of canopy material are softer than using a single-ply reinforcement material, allowing the kite to twist better and be more responsive. Small battens stabilize the canopy and counter flutter on sizes 9m, 10m, 11m and 14m

One of the lightest single-strut kites ever designed

Engineered for travelling at speeds so fast other kites couldn’t keep up, the Code Zero has excellent drift for foiling, where you travel at very high speeds downwind and it's important the kite goes along with you.

DuraLite Reinforcement

The Code Zero has a wide wind range and impressive power for a one-strut kite. It depends on the size, but it performs best in its low-end range, and will carry you through the lulls and gusts. When you’re riding with more wind, the smaller sizes will open the world of foil freestyle. The kite is lighter and faster through the window, making it fun for performing tricks.

2-Ply Canopy Trailing Edge reinforcement

The cap and valve base geometry are optimised for more comfortable opening and closing in colder conditions (when your fingers are freezing). The bayonet style main inflation valve is compatible with most pumps - no adapter required.

Fast light wind performance

The recycled polyester ripstop fabric meets the Global Recycling Standard. The Kite Bag features a comfortable STPU padded area with groove designed especially for carrying a foil mast over your shoulder.  It also features mesh windows for ventilation, zipper pockets for spare parts and storage, a Control System pocket and kite pump holder.
