The fastest, most reactive Orbit.

Powered by N-u80 Technology, North’s uncompromising, highest-performing kite airframe material, engineered for directional stiffness and torsional flexibility to deliver faster response, greater control and next-level performance.

N-u80’s 0°/90°/30° weave is tuned for holding its form under load, while the 30° cross-ply Technora stiffens the bias direction, letting the tube twist progressively through a turn rather than folding or overloading at one point. 

N-u80's higher stiffness-to-weight ratio allows North designers to slim down the leading edge and struts without losing structural integrity. This creates a lighter, lower-drag airframe with room for a higher aspect ratio, bigger boosts and faster water recovery.

With N-u80, stiffness and torsional flex are engineered to work together, and the airframe holds its shape under load but twists exactly where needed, so the kite responds earlier, turns faster, and needs less input to initiate a turn while carrying speed through it.
