2023 North Reach Kite Package
A package you can't go wrong with. The North Reach is a kite anyone can hook into and have a great time with in any discipline of the sport. It's a Force favorite for teaching in our school because it's super forgiving, offers an intuitive feel, and almost wants to relaunch on its own. The Reach is the most beginner-friendly kite that you can take into the higher levels of any discipline and rely on its outstanding performance. Paired with North Navigator Control Bar and Prime Board w/ Flex Straps, this package is sure to last many seasons of heavy use.
The Reach:Lively and playful, this 3-strut allrounder has unparalleled versatility and wind range. Big jumps. Upwind performance. Effortless relaunch. For 2022 we’ve introduced a new lighter Dacron exo-skeleton in every size 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 that’s even more stable in kite loops, the Reach is your go-to kite in all conditions. The lighter construction excels throughout the entire wind range, foil and surf, without compromising the kite’s durability. Its fast, responsive steering and efficient power delivery give rise to incredible 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.
