North TRACEFreeride Lightwind2023

Early planing & upwind performance

The board’s larger surface area helps you build up resistance against the kite for greater forward momentum.

Centre V-Spine and quad channels

The channels and V-spine also help with upwind traction and high-speed control.

Phenomenal pop

Ideal for use with the 13/15/17m Reach

The Reach’s fuller profile generates power and efficiency, while its lighter weight 3-strut construction delivers quick, responsive steering in even the lightest wind. In the three larger sizes, the Reach is a powerful light wind kite, designed with a predictable, consistent drive forward for TwinTip riding long after everyone else has gone in.

Balanced rocker, outline and flex

Board specific laminate layups then allow us to further fine tune the flex and board characteristics. We adjust the stiffness lengthwise and torsionally in conjunction with the rocker line, plan shape view and profile of the board, to give each board its specific performance characteristics.

Hybrid carbon construction

Lightweight, impact resistant paulownia wood core

Ultra-lightweight, with a high shear force and high impact resistance, Paulownia wood forms a non-toxic core which significantly displaces the amount of foam or resin used in manufacturing, thereby reducing carbon emissions. Each board has a customised core thickness individually fine-tuned to ensure its characteristics are consistent throughout the range, no matter your size or weight.
