North Orbit 2026 – Big Air, Refined The North Orbit 2026 is a 5-strut big air machine, now completely redesigned for smoother flight, higher jumps, and more control in extreme conditions. Built for riders chasing massive boosts, loop progression, and dependable performance across a wide wind range, the Orbit continues to set the standard for big air kiting. Key Features Reduced Drag, Increased Lift – A refined segmented arc reduces drag for faster turning, while a deeper center profile creates more lift and hangtime. Response 5-Point Bridle – An additional bridle point stabilises the slimmer leading edge, giving the kite precise steering, controlled response, and increased depower. Faster-Flying Thinner LE – The thinner leading edge makes the Orbit more efficient, faster in loops, and quicker to catch you after the loop. Aerodynamic Contoured PTP2 – Zigzag transition panels reduce canopy tension, smooth out the profile shape, and create a cleaner airflow transition from LE to canopy. N-Max2 Pro-Technology Airframe – Lightweight yet durable, with a multi-layer longitudinal weave for improved tear strength, consistency, and dynamic steering. 5-Strut Stability – Rock-solid stability across the wind range, delivering control in gusty or high wind conditions with a steady canopy at all angles. Higher Aspect Ratio Design – Increased from 4.3 to 5.2, the higher aspect ratio moves the kite forward in the wind window for better upwind drive, explosive boosting, and efficient relaunch. Why Riders Choose the Orbit 2026 Huge wind range with stable top-end performance Effortless steering and upwind drive Loftier jumps with longer hangtime Reliable control for loop progression
