Technologies kite

Aramid Reinforced New for 2008 are the Aramid Reinforcements, added in highly exposed areas such as the micro batten pockets and the leading edge scuff pads. These reinforcements reduce wear from everyday use and increase the durability and life of your kite.

Load Distribution Panels More powerful kite profile means that the canopy has to carry higher loads resulting in a distorted profile and loss of efficiency. The Load Distribution Panels spread the load from the lines to a wider area keeping the profile smooth and distinct and allowing the kite to perform with maximum efficiency at all times.

Relaunch Bungees In order to make the relaunch easier and to avoid any possible line tangling, we‘ve added Relaunch Bungees at the kite tip (Rebel 08, Rhino 08). The bungees keep the lines lying slick against the inside of the leading edge, preventing any line from going over the top of the kite during the relaunch.

Self Rescue Handles These loops attached to the inside of the wingtips make it easier to hold the kite for body drag rescue.

Cam Battens Our revolutionary and patent-pending Cam Battens are made of flexible nylon and improve the stability of the canopy and reduce the drag of the kite. The Cam Battens allow us to achieve a deeper profile and make the kites more powerful. The deeper canopy combined with a round entry profile gives better stall resistance, which yields not only better low end power but also better hang-time. Cam Battens also give the kite much better upwind abilities and very good stability in the sky.

Kook Proof Connectors These connectors prevent the number one cause of kite accidents by ensuring that front lines cannot be attached to the back of the kite and back lines cannot be attached to the front.

Lazy Pump The North Lazy Pump system allows you to inflate the kite through a single valve and get it ready for take off. The Lazy Pump system has safety clips at the tubes that are protected with neoprene sheaths to secure the tubes after inflation and separate the air chambers of the individual struts to the leading edge. The neoprene sheath is simple and effective, just pull it back to open or close the clip. The tubes are secured on the especially developed valves with NKB molded safety rings and can easily be removed by pulling them upwards.

For 2009 we have completely reworked the Vegas to cover a wider range of conditions and riding styles than ever before! › › › › › ›

C-kite Feeling 2 Setups: Freeride and New School Constant Power 5th Element Safety 4 or 5 Line Compatible Sizes: 5 / 7 / 9 / 10 / 12 / 14

A slightly lower aspect ratio and wider wing tips mean very constant pull, extremely tight kite loops and improved low end grunt to please the C-kite lover in you. The 09 Vegas features our new three in one concept: Three different settings that allow you to choose your desired feel for Freeride and New School at its highest possible per­ formance level. With a quick switch of the line connection point, the 09 Vegas offers the following three setups: – 5th line Freestyle / Freeride setting: Plenty of Depower and the classic Vegas feel you‘ve come to expect! This setting offers the most versatility and is ideal for free/wave riding, jumping and unhooking. – 5th line New School: Dedicated New School feel, reduced Depower, extremely steady when unhooked and less sensitive to bar input for loaded power moves. All the safety and relaunch benefits of the 5th Element. – 4 line New School: Dedicated New School / competition setting. Reduced Depower and less sensitive to steering for powered tricks. 4 line conversion kit available.

With the N e w S ch o o l set up the Vegas still retains some Depower but becomes less sensitive to bar sheeting and steering making it ideal for unhooking.

› Freestyle High Depower Set Up

› New School Setup

When riding with full power in the F r e e s t y l e mode, the forces on the lines are split into 60 % on the front lines and 40 % on the back lines. Therefore, less steering impulse is needed to make the kite turn quickly. When riding with full power in the N e w S c h o o l mode, the forces on the lines are split into 75 % on the front lines and 25 % on the back lines. This makes the back lines less sensitive, causing less movement while you are throwing an unhooked trick. More steering impulse is required to get the same turning as that of a Vegas in F r e e s t y l e mode.

› Freestyle High Depower Set Up Powered

› New School Setup Powered

In F r e e s t y l e mode the tip has a wider surface affected by the rider’s bar input. Therefore, the kite is much more sensitive and reactive in steering. In N e w S ch o o l mode, a smaller surface of the tip is affected. More bar input is required for quick steering reaction. More bar stability means the kite will not “rise up” when you unhook making it easier to throw mind-blowing N e w S c h o o l tricks.

North introduces an EVOlution in Freeride kiteboarding!

› › › › › ›

Good Light Wind Performance C-Oriented Feeling Super Stable in the Air Auto Relaunch 4 or 5 Line Compatible Suitable Equally for Freestyle and Newschool

The Evo can be ridden on 4 or 5 lines and bridges the gap perfectly between Vegas and Rebel, uniting New School and Freeride in one kite. The Evo’s delta shape offers great sheet-and-go riding, excellent wind range and high Depower. The roundish shape helps the Evo turn quickly and predictably while the new bridle geometry stabilizes the arc for a soft, consistent bar feel and extreme back-stall resistance. The 4 line mode boasts an innovative new safety system and bar-feel perfect for those who prefer soft, easy handling. In 5 line mode the 5th Element additionally stabilizes the arc, providing very direct bar-feel for New School riding and the ultimate 5th line safety. Auto relaunch means that you can go for it and never have to worry about relaunching your kite ... just take your hands off the bar and let the kite do the work for you! The Evo is built tough to take some thrashings and the new connection between strut and leading edge easily withstands the high loads of the delta shape.

The 2009 Rebel is bashing down the barriers of freeriding and surfing! › › › › › › ›

Direct Depower Reactive Steering 5th Element Safety Light Weight Heavy Reinforcing Quad Rib Design Lazy Pump

The clean, simple 5 line design delivers smooth, reactive steering, extreme resistance to back-stalling when over-sheeted and the most direct bar feedback yet. Our unique quad strut configuration produces a light weight kite with quick turning and a snappy feel which makes the bigger sizes feel more crispy and lively than ever! The quad strut also helps create a very clean center profile that delivers constant, predictable power for Freeride comfort. The Rebel is heavily reinforced with Dacron to take some severe thrashings in the surf and come out in one piece. The combination of decreased weight and a rounder arch helps prevent the Rebel from falling quickly when the lines go slack while surfing making it easier to recover from steering errors. One pump inflation for added simplicity.

kites 09 rhino  Freeride/Race

sizes: 7 / 9 / 10 / 12 / 14 / 16

The North Rhino has always been synonymous with extreme power and big jumps. The 2009 Rhino is no exception. › › › › › ›

Massive Hangtime and Lift Extremely Powerful Low-End Best Upwind Performance of the Range Highest Stability Improved Attack Control Bridle Crisp Bar Feeling

Designed for jumping, racing and getting out in the lightest wind the 09 Rhino has the biggest low-end, best hang-time and best upwind speed of any kite in the North range. Less extreme sweep and a slightly flatter profile in the center and tips contribute to better highwind stability, less drag in overpowered conditions and smooth, responsive turning. Improved lift makes it easy to get big lofty jumps that are vertical and drag-free. The simplified Attack Control Bridle permits substantial changes in angle of attack (power/de-power) without any undesirable twists in kite geometry which results in a surprisingly crisp and responsive bar feel. Additionally, the AC bridle allows you to fly the Rhino on 5 lines for maximum safety or 4 lines without losing any performance. Although de-power is not as instantaneous when the safety is engaged in 4 line mode, the AC bridle does allow the Rhino to flip onto it’s back and de-power much like a 5th element. In order to keep the Rhino as light as possible, more light rip-stop has been utilized in the canopy as well as our tested and well-proven Snakeskin along the trailing edge.

kites 09 BUZZ  Youngster/SCHOOL KITE

sizes: 3.5 / 5.5 / 7.5

Finally, the waiting is over. After two years of R&D, North Kiteboarding introduces a new school kite – the Buzz.

› › › › ›

Auto Relaunch Very Robust Construction 4 or 5 Line Setup Super Easy Huge Windrange

features

The Buzz meets all the requirements of beginners. Briskly pulling the bar does not immediately result in a jump over the dunes. When the kite lands on the water or on the ground, relaunch requires no active intervention from the rider. Instead, its auto-relaunch makes it crawl to the edge of the wind window where it waits for a launching impulse from the pilot. Large Dacron surfaces, Kevlar reinforcements and a new strut construction protect the kite in the rough environment of kite schools. The Buzz has a very wide wind range and is able to water relaunch at only a few Beaufort. The simple four-line bar also contributes to making the introduction to kiteboarding safe and easy as never before!

kites 09 solid

sizes: 4 / 6 / 9

The “5th Element-like pressureless safety system” continues to be the most important feature of the Solid09. In addition to the regular landing and relaunch option, this system offers perfect safety functions:

Releasing the 5th Element safety line pulls down the kite’s central profile, causing the rest of the kite to collapse backwards. The wind meets no resistance and the depowered kite sinks to the ground. Together with improved profile and bridle geometries we optimized the flying properties of the various sizes. The smaller sizes now have more harmonious flying characteristics and permit an absolutely stress free kiting experience, particularly for newcomers and intermediate riders. The Vario Trim option allows the rider to adjust the kite to personal preferences. The 09 Solid is a true fun kite. With its easy and forgiving flying characteristics together with a wide wind range and the safety of the 5th Element, the Solid 09 combines reliability, easy handling and performance.

The Iron Heart II requires only minimal release forces and is not affected by adverse sand and saltwater conditions. Together with the double Depower line, the Sliding Stopper and Stopper Ball make sure that the bar stays in your preferred position in all situations. The small and lightweight Vario Cleat permits you to quickly adjust the bar for a perfectly trimmed bar system. If the dangling trim line should have interfered with your flow in the past you can now focus your Zen mind completely on the water: Velcro and Velcro fit together so we have placed one each on the Stopper Ball and on the grip of the trim line.

Bar Features 09 Iron Heart II 09 Three years after its introduction to the market, the Iron Heart II still defines the benchmark for safety. The light but solid V2A stainless steel construction is one of the most reliable safety systems on the market. The release forces are very low by less than 4 kg at a load of 200 kg in a dry and sand free environment. Excellent function is ensured even in wet and sandy conditions with under 7 kg release force at 200 kg.

d and Close II – Open Iron Heart

The centrally located Iron Heart II release grip is large and ergonomic for fast and good function. It is very easy to find and can be operated either with the right or left hand. The open design prevents the system from jamming and greatly facilitates reassembling. The previously bare stainless steel edges are now protected by a neoprene cap. The system can be used with chicken loops of various lengths depending on the rider’s height.

Neoprene

Cap

Flying Lines The flying lines developed in cooperation with FSE Robline were a complete novelty when they were first introduced on the kite market. After three years of experience and thorough testing by the most demanding kiters, North Kiteboarding schools and teamriders know that they can always rely on these lines. Conventional lines get their stiffness from a coating that is damaged by repeated folding. If a line is folded, the coating (wax) is extruded and the line will always fold in the same spot. To prevent this, we weave a monofill into our lines that restores the original shape (Memory Effect) and ensures that the next time the line bends in a different spot.

If the line is only gently bent, it returns faster to its original shape and it becomes a little stiffer. This technology makes laying out the lines more comfortable and quicker. The increased breaking strength of 270 daN (approximately 270 kg) is an added bonus. To ensure that the lines are attached correctly we use monofill in different colors. › Memory Effect › More Bending Stiffness › High Breaking Strength

Vario Cleat 09

While you are on the water you can easily adjust the kite’s power. Simply pull on the webbing loop to depower your kite. If you want more power, pull the webbing loop and release line.

a p pa r e l apparel

The Vario Cleat allows you to adjust the length of the Depower line to suit your preference. Whether you use a seat or a waist harness, whether you have long or short arms, the cleat helps you to find the perfect setup, fast and easy.

Free Sliding Stopper & Stopper Ball The Sliding Stopper and the Stopper Ball permit you to adjust the Depower lines on the water. Particularly in light wind conditions you will be more comfortable if you do not have to constantly hold the weight of the bar. It has two different settings for more and for less traction. To change the settings, all you need to do is turn the ball around. The Sliding Stopper Ball also reduces wear on the Depower lines. Â Cau ti on: since this system is able to reduce the kites maximum depower, it should only be used on the water and at a safe distance from dangerous objects. The Free Sliding Stopper is easy to operate with one hand.

Kiteboard technology 09 3D Wood Cap Sandwich

2009 is a big leap forward in board technology as North Kiteboarding introduces the 3D Wood Carbon Cap Sandwich. Combining the unique properties of wood core and carbon fiber, with an advanced flex pattern from a CNC milled 3D deck and concave bottom, the 2009 North Kiteboard range is setting a new standard in performance, comfort and durability. Technology leader The unique thing about the 3D Wood Carbon Cap Sandwich is the fully 3D shaped wood core with the advanced deck flex pattern and concave bottom. This type of advanced step cap sandwich construction, in combination with a concave bottom has previously only been possible to manufacture with foam cores, which have certain limitations regarding flex, core thickness and shear strength. Thanks to our strong R&D focus and collaboration with one of the world’s leading snowboard factories, North Kiteboarding is the first company in the world to introduce 3D Wood Carbon Cap Sandwich. This technology opens up a new door for flex development. In terms of kiteboards it means a significant performance boost and a whole new level of comfort for the rider.

HDPE Flex Tip

Why is the 3D Wood Carbon Cap Sandwich construction better? Comfort The strong, fibrous structure of the wood core allow for a thinner core profile and a higher amount of bending compared with a traditional foam core, without the risk of breakage. The result is a board with a greater amount of flex, working as an active suspension while riding, providing a smooth and controlled feeling even through rough water. Responsiveness Thanks to the natural flex characteristics and spring back of the wood core, our new boards have a responsive and lively feel on the water, without sacrificing the comfort. To get that extra boost in the pop we’ve added carbon fiber beams on the Jaime and Pro Series. The result is a highly responsive, yet still forgiving board, with instant feedback to the rider’s input.

Control The 3D Wood Carbon Cap Sandwich construction has a higher amount of flex and torsion than a traditional foam core. This allows the board to quickly adapt to every impact from the water surface, giving the rider more space for mistakes, without the risk of loosing control. What the rider will experience is a board that’s easy to set up for take off and forgiving in the landings, and maintains good grip when riding full speed through choppy water. On the Jaime and X-Ride, the concave bottom keeps the board sucked to the surface of the water while effortlessly blasting through knee high chop, drawing full speed turns or carving in the waves. Strength Our wood core has three times higher density than a standard foam core, and much greater strength and impact resistance. Fatigue resistance, the ability to withstand stress caused by thousands of impacts and hard landings over time, has been significantly improved. Heel dents, split cores and cracked laminates are history. The new 3D Wood Carbon Cap Sandwich is the strongest construction we’ve ever made, reassuring a long life and functionality for your kiteboard.

PRO MODELs NEW SCHOOL

Sky 138 × 43 cm; Cesar 135 × 42 cm; Mallory 132 × 41 cm; Young Blood 129 × 40 cm

For 2009 North continues its ever-evolving Pro Series Range to bring you four truly uncompromised, progressive New School Freestyle boards. As the boundaries of Freestyle riding expand, the North Pro Models are aimed at pushing the envelope of pure performance to adapt and destroy in any conditions and meet the needs of dedicated New School riders. With ever-increasing demand for boards to suit our team’s powered riding, we have increased the width 2 cm in the center to accommodate harder, faster and safer landings. This extra width has in turn also increased upwind performance. By only increasing the width in the center and keeping the winger tips nearly the same width as last year’s, we were able to create a board that delivers aggressive grip, much more accessible pop and much higher top end speed to initiate tricks. Perhaps the biggest breakthrough for the 2009 range is our new carbon light-wood sandwich construction; Excellent dampening properties, further enhanced by a stiff center and soft flexy tips, delivers an exceptional amount of comfort in the roughest chop while remaining responsive and aggressive. This softer feel allows you to take all the advantages of riding a bigger board without feeling the extra size. All boards come with an additional stance option for bindings.

The second largest in the Pro Range, the Cesar Pro is sized to match Cesar’s power-house approach to Freestyle. Fast, aggressive and hard.

Still the largest board in the Pro Range, the Sky Pro is ideal for bigger riders looking for aggressive edge, pop and speed for powered New School tricks typical of Sky’s powerful and enduring style. “My new Pro Model is just the perfect size for the most powered landings yet. The new construction is amazing and makes everything feel so much softer and smoother … but best of all is that on top of that I have more speed and pop than ever.” Sky Solbach

“Thanks to the new construction materials and increased size we were able to develop the perfect board for the most powerful and radical Freestyle. The wood construction with nuclear carbon provides a massive pop, easy control and extra good riding comfort. The new size makes this board the perfect machine for hardcore landings and technical moves. This is the great successor of the Cesar 08, you’ll love it!” Cesar Portas

Winger tips give you heaps of control and plenty of grip to get upwind and load up hard for jumps.

This year we’ve put strong focus on optimizing the flex and dampening properties, bringing the feeling and performance close to that of a traditional clark foam / polyester custom board. A new high density “surf-style” core has been developed together with a wood sandwich / multiaxial fiber glass layup, optimizing flex, torsion and dampening. Together with a high glossy polished finish, our 2009 surfboard range has both the looks and performance of a custom board, but with far superior durability!

High Performance Carving & Control at High Speed Down the Line Surfing Custom Epoxy Wood Sandwich Dual Density Pads Future Fin System

North introduces the Kontact: A surfboard range that will take your kite-surfing to new levels!

Sky

With the input of pro riders Sky Solbach and Dreu Beavis, Australian shaper Martin Littlewood has put his 30 plus years of shaping experience and a full year of R&D into the Kontact range. From pumping Western Australia to PKRA competition in Chile and down to one-foot onshore beach breaks, these boards are designed to be pushed as hard as possible in all conditions. The concept is quite simple: The overall look and feel of a bigger semi-gun, scaled down to around 6' for kiting. The result is a board that offers excellent grip and encourages you to go as fast as possible into turns and carves and give you more confidence in pushing the next turn. These boards excel in good conditions where speed and control is key, but still maintain enough direct response and snappiness to push your limits in smaller surf. Strapped or strapless, big or small surf, the Kontact is a no compromise high performance range of competition surfboards that will never hold you back.

“The 6'1" is the perfect board for me in all conditions. When it’s big and windy, it drives through turns like no other board I’ve ever ridden and has plenty of snap for steep beach breaks.”

Finnen Small = Pinhead. Fast and snappy for light weight riders. Large = Fathead. Lots of drive and grip for heavier riders.

The Bullet is a quad fin surf design aimed carving new lines in small to medium surf. Utilizing the short, wide, compactness of a fish in combination with the drive and grip of a quad has made the Bullet a master of generating blazing speed in smallish surf and tight carves. The Bullet is extremely loose and snappy and fits well in the pocket of small to medium waves. Strapped or strapless, the Bullet easily takes tight lines in small surf and is easy to bust the tail free and throw buckets of spray! A squared off nose and batwing tail give the Bullet its striking looks. It is available in two sizes; 5'7" and 5'10" to suit nearly every size rider. The Bullet is the perfect addition to your growing surf addiction!

The Freestyle Fish concept is only a year old, yet it has been one of the most talked board in our range. What started as a concept project last year is now a category of its own in 2009. This has only encouraged us to continue pushing and developing the FSF for 2009. This year we’ve used the knowledge and experience of surf shaper Martin Littlewood to give a more “surfy” twist to this concept without losing the ease of use that made the Freestyle Fish so popular in the past. We’ve expanded the range to a bigger version to please the bigger riders and light wind freaks. The result is two boards that will make the most fun of medium and small surf, light wind or even flat water Freestyling. Feel free to have a blast in conditions that you used to overlook; Onshore mush, wind swell … the freestyle fish will challenge you to have the most fun. You will still dream of being in Hawaii every day, but it will ease the pain!

K it es

The reality is that you can now ride in conditions you would never have even considered to be kiteable. Ken Winner has used his 20 plus years of windsurf racing experience to develop a board with mind blowing upwind performance and extreme light wind capabilities. This board has already been proven in PKRA Racing by reigning champion Sean Farley. The earliest planing board ever developed for kiteboarding, the Race Ltd. is the ultimate course racing board or simply a tool to get you upwind and cruising with very little effort. Angled twin blade-fins with s ymmetrical foils produce high lift and very little drag while the board’s “wedge” outline helps the fins to operate at the highest possible angle of attack. Sharp rails and a wide square tail give you plenty of “bite” to push as hard as you want to fly upwind when you can barely feel a breeze on your face.

Footpad Plate

Multi Adjustable Footstrap

For the new footpad we rolled up our sleeves and created a new mold that eliminates all the weaknesses that were criticized in the past years. The result defines a new level of support, fit and comfort. Particularly, we were able to optimize the hardness grade in the heel and toe area for excellent support. The entire pad is now softer for better shock absorption in hard landings. The footpad plate is still quick and easy to mount, it is screwed onto the board with two screws together with the Multi Adjustable Footstrap 09! All that’s left to do then is to step into this combo and enjoy the ride.

The 2009 Multi Adjustable Foot Strap offers you a wide range of Foot Strap sizes and positions with only one strap. Apart from the size you can also adjust the strap’s asymmetry and width. Once fitted to the width and shape of your foot, the strap can be adjusted in size as usual (with or without booties). The strap’s enhanced construction on the inside increases comfort and provides a good hold in combination with the new 2009 Footpad Plate. The base fits the North Kiteboarding Footpad Plate for quick and easy mounting – simply “plug and screw”! 4

3 Multi Adjustable Footstrap S

Rocketfish Footstrap

The S version of the adjustable Footstraps was developed for women and generally for smaller feet. Apart from the reduced length and width it is identical to the big Footstrap and ensures optimum comfort and support for all maneuvers on the water.

The Rocket Fish straps are cushier than ever. Extra foam layers on the inside ensure the most comfortable ride that your feet ever experienced! The longer straps give you more freedom for individual adjustments according to the size of your feet and personal preferences.

The Saber Fin line will allow you to find your perfect size for every board. The Saber Fins remain really fast but with excellent grip due to the small 8 mm base even when riding fully powered up. Going slower with the Saber Fin line will give you a looser and skatier board. Best performance for all tricks! For safety reasons, the new NKB Saber Fins will be delivered in a red G10.

In addition to the Molded Waist Support Patches, the air bubble back padding makes sure that the harness adapts perfectly to the shape of the body. Slipping was yesterday and the wearing comfort remains unsurpassed!

A little padding around the chest does not make an impact vest. Only a perfectly fitting vest will reliably protect you when you hit the water surface. We used a double internal Velcro neoprene strap system that can be individually adjusted for a perfect fit. Once adjusted, the vest is easy to put on and take off by opening the strap at the lateral zip. Additional connection straps keep the vest firmly attached to the harness.

The Quiverbag includes a wet compartment for wet stuff and, due to its amazing stowage capacity, it must have rolls for easy handling! Sizes: S 135 cm / L 165 cm / XL 185 (6'1" )

The backpack for your travels, the beach and the office has become a little larger to make sure that you really have enough space to pack everything you need.

The integrated padded laptop case is accessible both from the inside and from the outside for fast and easy access to your computer. The interior sunglass pocket is padded for protection.

APPAREL WOMEN I want to be the one to walk in the sun, oh girls they wanna have fun. Well, our collection is not quite as lurid as Cyndi Lauper was already back in 1983. Not every girl wants total sensory overload with regards to clothing. The result is a mix of modern and classic, punk and fancy, with many details and with the right item for every occasion. Designed by women for women. Get dressed for success!
