North Kiteboarding: 2016 Evo Overview w/Tom Herbert

Tom Herbert, Team Rider for North Kiteboarding, flies the 2016 North Evo religiously. Flying and slicing through the sky like a deity coming to greet its followers on the land below, the 2016 Evo can be considered one of the pinnacles of kiteboarding. Reliable, stable, and versatile are just a few of the adjectives we could place on the Evo. 

What we learned from Tom about the Evo:

• Most versatile kite in the industry
• Better relaunch due to the newer delta-shape design
• Improved turning speed and low end
• The 14m, 13m, and 12m all have their own wing tip design
• Kites 9 - 11m generate more stiffness due to its shape
• Anti Snag technology keeps the lines from getting tangled in the event of a crash, creating better launches and a safer ride
• Lazy Pump system enables inflation of the kite with one valve

2016 North Evo

Simply put, the Evo is the all-round maestro from the North Kiteboarding range, guaranteed to get the job done! Any job. We’ve done things different by giving this freeride machine 5 struts instead of 3 struts, because we believe in it. Why? Because with our 5-strut design that has been refined year after year, we’ve achieved a kite that offers up an exceptional wind range, greater stability, superior depower and progressive sheet and go characteristics.

If you’re looking for one kite to do it all then look no further, the Evo will have you flying high like Tom Hebert, coming in hot at the line-up and slashing waves or simply freeriding. For those looking to ride unhooked every now and again, it has just the right amount of freestyle performance you’re looking for. Riding waves, you’ll be surprised by the turing and drift. Delivering a precise and direct feel with power, whatever your style you’ll feel right at home with the Evo. In addition to all its greatness, for 2016 it features the improved LazyPump system with a greater airflow; getting you on the water first.

There are many kites out there that claim to ”do it all”, try the Evo and decide yourself what it can’t do!

The Evo is not the ”Jack of all trades”. It’s the master of them all.
