2027 North Orbit Kite Product Code: 85000.270000 Performance Foil / Freeride Sizes: 7m, 8m, 9m, 10m, 11m, 12m Proven in competition and real-world conditions, our iconic 5-strut kite delivers user-friendly performance with a wide wind range, effortless steering, powerful upwind drive, and a smoother, more energetic feel. The 2027 Orbit carries forward all the performance riders love, with enhanced aerodynamic efficiency and faster response. A refined profile and bridle geometry give the kite a more playful feel, with higher jumps, smoother flight and sharper steering. A high aspect ratio frame boosts lift, power delivery and hangtime, while the N-Max2 airframe creates a slimmer, lighter LE, with increased sweep and slimmer wingtips for improved turning speed. Offering pro technology at a competitive price, the Orbit is engineered to inspire confidence and progression, giving riders at every level more control in big air manoeuvres.

Features Updated bridle geometry for a more playful feel Forward cambered profile refined for smoother flying Slimmer LE for faster turning and more vertical lift Response 5-point bridle PTP2 transition panels contoured to reduce tension in the seams High aspect ratio design for excellent loft and hangtime Swept, slim wingtips for precise responsive steering Materials Pro Technology N-Max2 Airframe Advanced N-RS3 Triple Ripstop Canopy ITEM INCLUDES: Kite, Kite Bag, Repair Kit, Sand Bag TECHNOLOGY Energetic feel with increased depower Extra bridle points support the slimmer LE, maintaining the rigidity of the lighter airframe and ensuring stability for controlled response and consistent performance, especially in high-end. N-Max2 Pro Material Airframe For increased depower and bigger range, the lightweight, durable N-Max2 airframe material ensures a smooth, consistent response, more direct steering and more dynamic recovery. Aerodynamic Contoured PTP2 A zigzag-shaped single transition panel helps reduce spanwise tension in the seams, smooths out the profile shape, and creates a cleaner transition from the leading edge to the canopy. Fast-flying thinner LE The kite is fast-flying with more direct turning, vertical lift, and improved low-end. The thinner LE also increases the loop speed, so it can fly forward and catch you quicker. Increased Lift The Orbit 's segmented arc is slightly narrower in the shoulders and wider in the wingtips for reduced drag and faster turning. The slightly deeper profile in the centre creates more lift. Lightweight, durable N-RS3 canopy A low-stretch, UV-resistant fabric with a triple-ripstop weave, advanced coating, and zero porosity, ensuring long life and shape retention. Ultralite StitchHold Technology Considering the force on the LE Closing Seam from inflation and steering movements, we've used a lightweight, high-tensile thread to enhance resistance to fatigue, impact, and wear. Low Profile bridle lines Our precise, low-drag, no-pulley bridle lines are pre-loaded and measured before cutting to improve accuracy and consistency, reduce shrinkage and elongation, and aid longevity. Stable 5-Strut Performance Five struts provide additional canopy support, keeping the profile steady for incredible top-end stability, wind range and more control over the canopy movement at low attack angles.
