A UV-resistant outer film is sustainably bonded to the ultra-strong high-modulus ALUULA Core material. The resulting lamination produces a high-performance non-permeable fabric with an unparalleled strength-to-weight ratio. ALUULA Gold is 40% lighter than N-Max2

WHAT RIDERS SAY

"The lightest, fastest, sharpest. The kite that unlocks new possibilities."
BIG AIR PRO
Jett Bradshaw
"The lightest, fastest, sharpest. The kite that unlocks new possibilities."

ORBIT 2025
One kite. Three Personalities.
Pepijn Smit explains the material differences of the three different Orbit kites and how these affect their design, personality, and performance in extreme conditions.

MATERIAL
Aluula
The Orbit Ultra airframe is constructed from the stiffest material currently available - Aluula Gold. The extra rigidity allows us to reduce the diameter of the LE and struts, for a faster, more forward-flying kite, with a more direct feel and even greater efficiency.

ULTRA SERIES
Ultimate precision. Highest performance.
At North, we’re always looking for more. We seek change. We pursue progress. The Ultra Series represents the pinnacle of material technology. Ultimate precision. Highest performance. Fastest speed. Lightest, most direct handling. Designed for advanced riders.
