Lively and playful, this 3-strut allrounder has unparalleled versatility and wind range. Easy jumps. Upwind performance. Effortless relaunch. For 2024 the Reach is lighter overall. We’ve improved the canopy tension for faster flying, and revised the arc design for a crisper, snappier response, ... more direct steering and more dynamic recovery. Still nimble and easy to ride, but now with a cleaner profile entry and smoother more aerodynamic shape that’s even more stable in kite loops, the Reach is your go-to kite in all conditions. The lighter construction excels in lightwind, foil and surf, without compromising the kite’s durability. Its fast, responsive steering and efficient power delivery give rise to confident boosts, loops and freestyle, while the short responsive bridle provides quick, exponential depower. In the three larger sizes, the Reach is a powerful lightwind kite designed with a predictable, consistent drive forward for TwinTip riding - long after everyone else has gone in.

Boosts and loops with a smooth reliable catch

The Reach has superb loft and hangtime with a compact steering radius

Incredible stability for foil and light wind

thanks to its medium-high aspect ratio design with wider wing-tip and well-balanced bridle. During a loop

Well-balanced tactile surf handling

many kites will pause before they climb back up

New segmented curve arc for improved canopy tension

but the Reach has a smooth

Massive wind range and upwind drive

consistent catch and doesn’t hesitate to come back around.

N-Max Airframe

Boasting predictable

Progressive freestyle medium-high AR

consistent power delivery in every condition

Direct and Responsive Steering

the Reach has exceptional performance at the low-end - especially at slower speeds in lighter wind. Its moderate leading-edge diameter provides additional buoyancy

Larger sizes light wind-optimised

helping the kite to release quickly from the water in even the lightest conditions.

Lightweight bladders in every size

Quick responsive steering and neutral static balance helps you fire up your performance in the surf

Durable

without any surprises. The Reach drifts well and doesn’t fall over

higher tensile leading edge seams

front-stall or back-stall - making it your go-to kite for foiling and wave-riding.

Highest quality no-pulley

Where nature meets technology. We’ve revised the Reach arc shape so tension can transition more evenly through the canopy

low drag bridle lines

as you would see in a catenary shape in nature. The new segmented curve arc gives the kite a cleaner profile that is more stable in kite loops. The kite remains light and fast but now has a crisper

High Performance N-HTRS Canopy

more snappy feel.

DuraLite seam protection

A precise draft-forward profile gives the Reach a very smooth and efficient profile entry and upwind drive. We’ve refined the panel cuts for a cleaner profile entry

HyperFlow rapid inflation system cap and valve geometry

removing the heavy-duty canopy panels.

Boosts and loops with a smooth reliable catch

There’s now only one panel segment instead of two

Incredible stability for foil and light wind

this reduces the number of seams

Well-balanced tactile surf handling

and helps to smooth out the profile shape

New segmented curve arc for improved canopy tension

creating a smooth transition from the segmented leading edge to the curved canopy. This results in an even more aerodynamic and efficient airflow and less turbulence.

Massive wind range and upwind drive

We’ve used a two-ply canopy material along the trailing edge for optimal steering and performance

N-Max Airframe

without compromising strength or durability. The lighter weight kite has a snappier response

Progressive freestyle medium-high AR

more direct steering and more dynamic recovery.

Direct and Responsive Steering

The bar pressure and steering impulse can be adjusted on the wing tip

Larger sizes light wind-optimised

allowing you to fine tune the kite's characteristics to your personal preference.

Lightweight bladders in every size

The combination of lighter weight materials and design elements give the kite a surprisingly light bar pressure

Durable

fast turning speed and fore and aft balance. We recommend you select your lightwind kite size according to rider weight rather than wind range. We recommend the 13m for lighter riders (under 70kg)

higher tensile leading edge seams

and the 17m for heavier riders (over 85kg).

Highest quality no-pulley

The lighter the kite

low drag bridle lines

the more efficiently it flies

High Performance N-HTRS Canopy

the greater the performance in lighter winds

DuraLite seam protection

the faster the steering

HyperFlow rapid inflation system cap and valve geometry

the more lift created and the higher you jump.
