At North, we’re for the seekers. The adventurers, the explorers, the freedom-junkies. Those who are their true selves when they’re at one with the elements. Water. Wind. Sky. They call to us. They create fire inside. It’s the greatest feeling on earth. When we’re halfway between worlds. Suspended in time. Lost. At one with it all. At North we’re always looking for more. We seek change, we chase the unknown, we pursue progress. We’re inspired by nature … and by the precision engineering of technology. North is where nature meets technology. Engineered. Refined. Intuitive. So when you ride North, you ride in tune with nature, in tune with yourself. So you feel everything – and nothing – all at once. So you feel at one. We are North.

The 2020 North range is the result of taking every piece of kiteboarding kit apart, analysing it and thinking about how it could work harder, faster and stronger. We had the opportunity to look at everything from another angle, a new perspective and a new approach. Then we reverse-engineered every detail. We compiled the best of the best - attributes, components, elements, materials. We found new suppliers and manufacturers, new ways of making things more to our liking. It’s been all about recalibration – finding the right combinations and ratios for power, stability, control and balance. Our team of designers and engineers have sweated the small stuff so we get the lift, the power, the control. Every North product is about balance and harmony. We’ve asked ourselves: how can we create the strongest and the most flexible? The simplest and the most technical? The most advanced with a light footprint? The greatest performance that remains intuitive?
7
The North design process starts and finishes on the water. We’re always answering the question: ‘How can we make it simpler?’ A huge part of our design process has been considering what we can get rid of. At North we’re all about simplifying, about paring everything back for pure performance. With the 2020 collection, we’ve designed everything to strike the perfect balance between
Where we could strip back elements, we have. We’ve used premium, quality materials that we’ve tested again and again for accuracy, consistency and durability. We’ve taken out anything that is technically unnecessary because the more you have,
R E F I N E D
cleanliness and aerodynamics, so the ride and the gear feels smooth and effortless.
the more there is to go wrong, especially on the water. 9
We’ve refined the details with mechanical finesse right down to the noise our connections and fastenings make. Our kites are a great example of our philosophy of refinement. In designing the 2020 range we tested every product in the market and that analysis led us to fine-tune every aspect of every kite - profile, load and construction, a bespoke to optimise performance. Our kites have been refined not to within inches, but to within millimetres. We want a lighter footprint for ourselves and the planet. We firmly believe that when your engineering is sharp and every detail is recalibrated and fine-tuned to the Nth degree then less is very much more.
E R I
The design process – and the ride – is a sensory experience. It’s about how it feels.
The 2020 collection is designed to feel intuitive. We want every ride to feel effortless, natural, instinctive. You want to just sense where your kite is in the air. You want to move without thinking. You want to switch gear without losing time. When you’re in harmony with your gear, that’s when you’re free. With our kites, the boards, foils, the control system, boots, bindings, twin tips, you’ll notice how easy it is to ride and how quickly you feel at one. 11
We’ve poured our hearts and souls into the details, with countless prototypes for each piece, each finished detail. It takes a lot of thinking to make something this easy. Every product has been recalibrated so they work together harmoniously, for more direct response, more command and performance, for a more effortless experience. You’ll sense everything working together instinctively, so you can switch your mind off and feel everything - and nothing - all at once.

It’s important to have stable bridle material that is accurately assembled from the very get-go. Firstly, you want it to be consistent from kite to kite, and secondly, you want it to change as little as possible over time. We’ve carefully analysed and tested our bridle lines to find the best combination of stability, strength and durability. Then we’ve introduced a new way for the factory to pre-load these as they manufacture - before they cut them. This automation allows us to greatly tighten the tolerance and accuracy, and combined with using the best quality materials, results in a very low change in either shrinkage or elongation and improved longevity. The kite should feel the same for a longer period of time. Since we don’t use any pulleys in our bridles, the need for this stable bridle line is even more important. Simplified. Less breakage.
RECALIBRATION. A NEW DIRECTION WITH PAT GOODMAN
WH E R E C R AFTSM ANSHIP M E E TS TE CHNOLOGY
challenge is getting the actual kite in the sky to be the same as the one you have designed on the computer.
Using modern profile analysis software to put some data behind the engine has enabled us to go deeper into aerodynamic performance and to optimise the shape of the kites for greater efficiency. By testing different profile attack angles as well as different profile alignment to the airflow, we’ve been able to take a new direction for optimum performance, creating a premier range of kites.
If it was purely aerodynamics then all kite designers would be aeronautical engineers - but this is not the case. There’s a lot of handcrafting and understanding about building wings from flexible materials which can only be obtained from years of experience (and thousands of prototypes).
Working with woven and flexible materials is a real challenge in aerodynamics. Nothing ever comes out exactly how you design it on screen - the biggest
The stability of these materials also makes a great difference in the accuracy of your prototyping. We’ve tested some materials that are so inconsistent we’ve found ourselves judging problems in the kite that were not created from the design, but from irregularities in the materials - especially in an inflated structure.
The more bells and whistles you have, the more there is to go wrong, especially on the water. All of our kites use fixed-cascade bridles with no pulleys. Removing the plastic pulleys from within the load-bearing part of the kite improves the safety and your connection to the kite. The result is less drag, more accuracy and a more direct feeling. Without pulleys, the kite powers more evenly and has improved steering and depower response. This accuracy improves your experience and helps you feel more connected to your gear.
I personally ride and test every prototype I make, and I’m the biggest critic. Before it leaves my hands, I have to be satisfied with it.
P AT G O O D M A N C H IE F K IT E D E S IG N E R An industry authority on kite design and innovation for the past 18 years, Goodman’s ability to understand and translate rider requirements into high-performance kite designs puts him among the world’s most awarded, respected and successful kite designers. Pat’s understanding of construction techniques and the complexity of 3D kite design software make him the authority in his field. The thousands of hours that he’s clocked on the beach and the multitude of kite prototypes he’s developed over the years has given Goodman true hands-on experience in developing and testing sails, kites and their related products, which he does personally with his test team and pro riders. Goodman’s trained eye enables him to meticulously refine a kite’s bridling and performance on the spot, working alongside some of the industry’s top riders to assist the flow between rider and nature for a better experience and higher performance.

Less parasitic drag. Greater aerodynamic performance.
This is not the first kite equipment ever designed. Decades of hands-on experience has gone into improving and refining these kites. We’ve analysed every detail carefully to ensure all those years of feedback have been addressed and we don’t encounter problems we’ve seen surface in the past.

All the kites share the same 2-stage arc design. What’s different between models, is the extremity of the arc width.
17
K I T E S
The flattened 2-stage arc design enables a smooth curved efficient central region of the kite to produce power, with straighter wing tips for a more dynamic steering response.
TURNING RADIUS NARROWER SPAN Smaller Turning Radius Tighter Turns Less Pull/Power in Turns Fast in Flight
EFFICIENCY A wide span, flattened arc kite like the Orbit Freeride makes the most use of its area, so it has the best hangtime and the best power delivery for its size.
As the arc shape becomes narrower the kite uses less of it’s area to provide actual power and efficiency. A smaller turning radius kite like the Carve is fast in flight, with less power overall.

AERO-OPTIMISED CANOPY TECHNOLOGY
REINFORCED DACRON EXO-SKELETON
We’ve added an extra panel that connects to the leading edge seam to ensure a precise lateral profile shape is maintained as close to the leading edge as possible, creating a smooth transition from the segmented leading edge to the curved canopy. This results in a more aerodynamic and efficient airflow and less turbulence.
A durable frame around the perimeter of the kite made from stretch-resistant Techno Force 160gsm Dacron material. The Exoskeleton helps the transition where the Kevlar reinforced strut system meets the lighter canopy material. It adds durability, strength and elongation control, protecting the canopy and making the kite more responsive in the steering and depower. The result is a durable kite that can hold its profile for increased performance and lift, but is also dynamic, flexible and can twist to turn.

NAVIGATOR CONTROL SYSTEM
The Connect is designed to reload from any angle,
conveniently reloaded with one hand, and relied on for safety in challenging situations. Imagine you’re being pulled onto a reef with waves crashing over you, you’re the only one out there. If you can’t reconnect, you’re in trouble. A further design complication is the harsh sand and saltwater environment which means you need to strip everything back as much as possible. If the tolerances are too tight, and there’s sand throughout, the components will not release. So much mechanical finesse, load-testing and material knowledge has gone into the development of the Connect Quick Release, ensuring it meets our demanding safety criteria. The end result raises the industry standard as a whole. We’ve developed and refined the entire Navigator Control System harmoniously from the ground up, providing a premium user experience that is simple, intuitive and refined - right down to the sound of the closure. Push and click.
We’ve always had this dream of the Connect System being as easy to load and release as a car seatbelt. You push, and you click. The problem is, a seatbelt won’t release when there’s a load on it.
As kiteboarding matures he sees the tendency in the industry to keep adding to design and functionality but believes that can lead to complexity for complexity’s sake. He believes that the key is to identify exactly what is needed and remove what is not, crafting every detail with fine precision. To be simple yet powerful is challenging, and he has made it his life’s work. Hugh spends his time sourcing the best materials and technical craftsmanship from the world’s finest and then puts it to work between wind and water.

TWIN TIPS
TWINTIP T EC H
The combination of the Paulownia wood core with engineered E-glass laminate layups on the top and bottom drives riding performance.
DYNAMIC FLEX The flex characteristic of every TwinTip Board is determined by multiple features built into each specific design.
E-GLASS WOVEN ROVING
E-GLASS TRIAXIAL
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.
12K CARBON SPREAD TOW PLAIN WEAVE
CARBON BIAXIAL
CARBON UD TAPES
PAULOWNIA WOOD CORE Lightweight and impact resistant Paulownia wood core. Paulownia is a highly renewable hardwood species, with one of the highest strength to weight ratios of any wood in the world. 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.
HYBRID The Hybrid construction has strategically placed layers of unidirectional carbon tape in high load areas, for reinforcement of the E-glass laminate, sandwiched with a Paulownia wood core. This allows for a well-balanced, forgiving flex and ride comfort.
CARBON Thoughtfully selected and arranged combination of woven roving and biaxial carbon fibre fabrics and unidirectional reinforcements provides an extremely fast response when loaded, with greater torsional and longitudinal board flex that in turn assists the rider to load and pop.

T W I N
Core thickness variations and taper as well as detailing, longitudinally and laterally play the most significant part in controlling the overall flex and feel. Board specific laminate layups then allow us to further fine tune the flex and board characteristics.

GRIPFLEX MATERIAL
R I D E I N TU N E WITH YOUR EQUIPM ENT
There are two touchpoints in kiteboarding, your control bar and your feet on the board. We wanted those touch points to be as soft as possible, with just the right amount of grip. Until now to get that grip you’ve also had to use quite a hard material, but we’ve developed a super-comfy rubberized EVA to give soft cushioning while maintaining grip underfoot. When it’s wet the grip improves.
GripFlex Rubberized EVA gives soft cushioning while maintaining grip underfoot when wet.
KnitFlex Supersoft bonded neoprene and foam means no inner stitching to rub on your foot and no bunching when bent into a curve. Dual-density conforming inner foam provides comfort and solid support.
KNITFLEX FOR TOP SIDE COMFORT AND SUPPORT The actual strap is laminated to the soft conforming foam inner, so when it creates a 3D curve you won’t have any bunching or creasing, and there’s no inner stitching to rub on your foot.
TRIPLE DENSITY Optimised strap adjustment options Inner and outer Flex Adjusters move forward and backward to ensure correct fit for all sizes, with comfortable foot positioning for a secure feel and use of toe bar. For a less locked-in feeling bring the inner two Flex Adjusters closer together.
High-density heel impact pads protect the heel from board contact on big landings. Dual-moulded together with the medium-density foam layer and optimised to absorb serious impact.
61
If you use an industry standard soft foam material underfoot, when you land hard it’s going to bottom out and bruise your heel. Instead, we’ve used a triple density foam built up in three layers: soft touch under your feet with a medium density frame to take most of the load, then for serious impact we’ve added a high-density layer which is over-moulded together with the medium density.

SURFBOARDS
ENGINEERED: FUTURELITE TECHNOLOGY
FUTURELITE SYSTEM A carbon fibre and Innegra wire-frame forms a structural skeleton which supports the laminates but allows the boards to flex, so as to load and release generating power from the wave and a kite.
WITH JAIMIE SCOTT
D E S I G N E R
The Futurelite carbon innegra wireframe creates a T-section, ensuring the board is strong enough to kitesurf, without losing the flex and feel. The resonance created by the wireframe within the board’s super-light shell gives a crisp feeling, with fantastic response. JAIMIE SCOTT
SO HOW DO YOU CRAFT A BOARD THAT IS STRONG ENOUGH TO KITESURF, BUT NOT SO STIFF AND OVERBUILT IT DOESN’T FEEL LIKE A SURFBOARD? Introducing the revolutionary Futurelite system and a lighter laminate construction. Board designer Jaimie Scott has helped the North Design team to engineer durable kite-specific surfboards with responsive flex characteristics and the feel of a high performance surfboard.
Veteran NZ surfer and shaper Jaimie Scott draws on more than 30 years of board-building experience across a range of disciplines surfboards, windsurfers, kite boards, stand up boards, foil boards and skimboards. “I learned to shape the old school way with a planer but was an early innovator with profiling machines, chasing the accuracy required to refine designs in a more controlled way. CNC shaping from computer files is now the norm and is the game-changer for progression of high performance board design.
Having experience with a wide range of craft has given me a complete understanding of form and flex, so we incorporate specific construction methods into each design to give required weight, flex, strength, response and feel, to match the fine tuned shapes.” Jaimie works with a team of professional and recreational riders, refining designs with the most advanced tools and state of the art construction methods available, to bring you the most enjoyable high performance boards.
The unidirectional carbon fibre and Innegra reinforment is inserted into channels along the load bearing lines through the deck and bottom of the board, running under and attaching to the FCSII fin plugs on the bottom and around the footstrap inserts on the deck effectively locking all fittings into the laminates and high density foam inserts.
FUTURELITE STOPS HERE TO ALLOW NOSE FLEX. The carbon Innegra Futurelite system allows for nose flex and has a dampening effect for a smooth comfortable feel incorporated into a really responsive carbon epoxy board.

U L I S O M M E R L AT T, PRODUCT MANAGER / F O IL E N G IN E E R Uli Sommerlatt is a naval architect and
To meet the growing demand for foiling, we’ve sought ways to deliver uncompromised performance at a more accessible level. Our hydrofoil design is highly data-driven. But even the best-looking numbers don’t necessarily mean a foil will manoeuvre and perform that way in real life. In the end, it comes down to having the expertise and knowledge required to arrange all the parts in the system for a seamless foiling experience. Teaming up with George Hradil from Delta Surf Foils has helped us refine the Sonar Foil performance. George has been designing and building highperformance racing foils since 2013, and since 2017 has applied his years of materials research and design philosophy into constructing some of the most advanced surf hydrofoils on the market.
engineer with more than 20 years of experience in cutting-edge design and innovation, most recently as on-site built support engineer for Oracle Team USA in the 35th America’s Cup campaign. Uli brings an analytic and scientific approach to product design drawn from his engineering expertise and years of experience in yacht and foil design. As an experienced kiteboarder Uli respects the intelligence of nature but is inspired to take evolution one step further through the application of technology. 95

SONAR MAST
GEOLOCK
85 CM I 7 0 CM I 4 0 CM
85cm Mast: 85cm Mast is ideal for freeride foiling and increases overall ride performance. The additional length allows you to heel over more, fly the kite lower and power up more. It is also more forgiving in rougher conditions.
40cm Mast: Our 40cm School mast, for those firsttime feels, is an ultra-forgiving mast height suitable for skimming just above the water line and easy recovery.
In traditional industry foil setups, the mast simply bolts to the fuselage. But we found foils coming back from product testing with all the screws bent. We needed to design a more effective load-bearing system to lock the mast to the fuselage.
GEOLOCK. OPTIMISED LOAD BEARING.
70cm Mast: Choose the 70cm mast for prone foil surfing in waves. The 70cm is also an ideal height for learning to kitefoil, and for freeride foiling in shallow waters.
LONG LASTING. HIGH PERFORMANCE.
M A S T S
Drawing from yacht design, and specifically keelboat racing, our Product Manager Uli Somerlatt engineered a unique geometry locking connection, using a tapered composite fuselage adaptor to sit between the mast and the fuselage. The screws engage the GeoLock, making the load transfer more effective and preventing the fitting from loosening over time.
The composite adaptor between the mast and fuselage helps to isolate the contact between the metal parts, and minimises the risk of corrosion by salt water, ensuring a more durable and long lasting connection. 99 ULI SOMMERLATT

Loose and surfy feeling with an early takeoff so you are up and riding sooner. Freeride or wakefoil with confidence on this stable foil with easy progression.
The ultimate in soaring comfort and performance, the Sonar 1650 delivers a stable platform for all rider styles, with real crossover to Foil Surf and SUP Foil for all rider weights.
Our 40cm School mast, for those first-time feels, is an ultra-forgiving mast suitable for “skimming” just above the water and easy recovery.
Choose the 70cm mast for prone foil surfing in waves. The 70cm is also an ideal height for learning to kitefoil, and for freeride foiling in shallow waters.
The 85cm Mast is ideal for freeride foiling and increases overall ride performance. The additional length allows you to heel over more, fly the kite lower and power up more. It is also more forgiving in rougher conditions.
Our arc-shaped rear stabilizer provides control and riding comfort, allowing fast pivoting turns and easy recovery from surface-breaching.
Hydrodynamic fuselage with optimised strength to weight, for a long lasting, well balanced foil with minimum resistance.
Add an 85cm mast and another wing size for kite foiling.
Designed to hold the lift through turns so even an inexperienced user can master tacks and gybes quickly for an easy progression.
