Kite Options:
2025 Naish Pivot
The 2025 Pivot bestows exciting new features, redefining its unparalleled diversity, build quality and durability. A big addition this year is the Profile Lock Seam and Load Seam, transferring steering input and holding the position of the draft in place, maintaining the longevity of frame rigidity and responsiveness of the kite.
Naish has reimagined the bridle system to ensure perfect tension at each point, engineered not only to be stronger and cleaner than ever before, but to increase the wind range of the kite with adjustable bridle points, intuitive edge control and high depower in the bar throw. Say hello to new TLS 500 bridle lines, proven to be extremely aerodynamic and lightweight, resulting in faster turning and great surface tension breakthrough upon relaunch.
Transforming simplicity and power, the Pivot has been a labor of love for over a decade and continues to remain a favorite among team riders and consumers alike. Innovation is in their blood at Naish, and they live for the challenge of bettering your experience on the water every day. Whether you're into Big Air, foiling, wave-riding, freestyling or freeriding; the Pivot has you covered, a true do-it-all weapon.

Control Bar Options:
North Navigator PRO
The Navigator PRO Control System 2024 Bar boasts an array of safety features to keep you secure on the water. With a tighter loop and stiffer security finger, the risk of accidental unhooking is drastically reduced. The single-action-reload Quick Release requires more force to release, ensuring peace of mind in high-stakes situations. ISO 21853 compliance guarantees top-tier safety standards.
Equipped with a revolutionary Auto-Untwist Mechanism it was never more comfortable untwisting the bar after loops or rotations. The mechanism comes with Zirconia ceramic bearing so it operates smoothly and reliably, eliminating frustrating tangles. Zirconia ceramic offers exceptional durability and resistance to wear and corrosion, ensuring long-lasting performance in any conditions.
The Navigator PRO is 20% lighter and 20% stronger thanks to its new engineered truss structure. A seamless integration of an injection-molded stainless steel center provides unparalleled strength and durability. The micro-textured dual compound grip offers maximum traction and comfort, allowing you to stay in control even during the most intense sessions.
North is using the highest-quality lines, the Liros Dyneema SK99. The Navigator PRO's lines are made in Germany to the highest standards. Thinner back lines (⌀ 1.55mm Front Lines, ⌀1.33mm Rear Lines) reduce drag in stronger wind conditions. While different line thicknesses ensure even shrinkage between front and rear lines. Spare parts are available in various lengths to suit your needs.
With the innovative Modular Toolless Interloop System, you can quickly switch between different chicken loops. That makes it easy to switch between disciplines without hassle. Whether you're into freeride, freestyle, or surfing, the Navigator PRO has you covered.
