North Pulse | Freestyle

Description

The new North Pulse Kite comes alive in unhooked Freestyle, and makes landing even the most technical tricks instinctive. Its upright, low sweep design ensures the twist introduced by the steering impulse goes much deeper into the centre of the kite, so it turns throughout the entire canopy and the power delivery is constant through the entire loop.

HIGHLIGHTS OF NORTH PULCE KITE

1. Fast responsive steering with FlexPulse structure
2. Bridled Hybrid-C design
3. Dynamic edge response

WHERE IT THRIVES

Flats, slicks, sandbars and kickers

WHAT RIDERS SAY

“I am blown away by how much hangtime and jumping ability it has for an Open-C kite. Honestly this kite gave me so much confidence.” – Bruna Kajiya

Set the air on fire

The explosive pop, powerful fast turns and responsive steering of our high-performance Hybrid-C kite will set your heart pumping. The Pulse comes alive in unhooked Freestyle, and makes landing even the most technical tricks instinctive. Its upright, low sweep design ensures the twist introduced by the steering impulse goes much deeper into the centre of the kite, so it turns throughout the entire canopy and the power delivery is constant through the entire loop. The leaner profile entry and slightly higher aspect ratio of the Pulse makes it efficient and smooth-handling, especially in extreme overpowered conditions. It’s the ultimate in performance freestyle, with impressive freeride capabilities for super-high boosts and loops. For 2021 we’ve replaced the heavier dacron reinforcements with a new lighter weight canopy reinforcement material, creating a more durable, faster-flying kite with increased performance and lift. More drive through the kite loop. Better recovery. Improved slack line and pop. We’ve also introduced new highest quality low-elongation bridle lines for lower drag, more accuracy and a more direct feeling.

Fast responsive steering with FlexPulse structure

The low sweep hybrid-C arc shape gives the kite a more powered turn through the entire wing. Its upright design ensures the twist from the steering lines runs deeper into the centre of the canopy.

Bridled Hybrid-C design

The ultimate unhooked performer with balanced line slack for handle passes and unhooking – the Hybrid-C design produces a kite that’s not only efficient, but still has many of the attributes and behaviours of a C-kite.

Dynamic edge response

The dynamic edge response enables the kite to fly forward quickly after an explosive pop or when checking a rail edge, for good slack and unmatched freestyle progression. A combination of a higher aspect ratio, smaller leading edge diameter and faster flying aerodynamic profiles.

DURALITE SEAM PROTECTION

Lightweight reinforcement to protect from chafing and abrasion along the struts to the leading edge. Thin foam padding is inserted underneath to form a lightweight durable buffer which lifts the kite slightly off rough surfaces and protects the stitching along the struts and leading-edge seams.
