In this video, Kristen shares her experience and insights about the 2024 North Reach kite, which she recently had the opportunity to try out in Muskegon, Michigan. The new kite features a logo used with North Sails and is constructed with a material called NMax, a lighter and stiffer Dacron. The new design minimizes the use of Dacron in unnecessary areas while reinforcing it where it matters, resulting in a kite that is lighter, faster, and just as sturdy as previous models.
North has also worked to improve the canopy tension and the overall design of the kite, while maintaining its signature light bar pressure, which Kristen finds advantageous as it helps to avoid arm fatigue during long sessions.
Kristen describes the 2024 North Reach as an incredibly versatile kite, well-suited to riders who enjoy engaging in various kiteboarding disciplines and don't want to commit to a single style. Despite her initial skepticism about "do-it-all" kites, she found the North Reach to excel in various conditions and activities, including foiling, wave riding, and freestyle.
She highlighted that the kite is fast and responsive, making it excellent for kite loops, and praised its performance in lighter winds, especially with larger models like the 15m version that she personally uses. However, for riders who prefer heavier bar pressure or are focused on specific kiteboarding disciplines, Kristen mentions that other kites in North’s lineup, such as the Orbit or the Pulse, might be better suited to their needs and preferences.
