North Orbit 2024 Kite

Super user-friendly 5 strut big air kite from North

Since its introduction, the North Orbit has become a local at every spot around the world. This year, North introduces the North Orbit 2024, this fifth version of the North Orbit has been completely fine-tuned in terms of panel layout, bridles and bladders, making the North Orbit 2024 even easier to jump high, pull kiteloops withs and providing you with infinite hangtime for big air tricks! This former winner of King of the Air will bring you to new heighs. Ride with the same kite as legends Marc Jacobs and Nick Jacobsen or incoming new talents Cohan van Dijk and Jett Bradshaw. With the new North logo in the Orbit you immediately stand out when you go on the water!

The design philosophy of the North Orbit is simple: making a kite that is super easy to use and bring big air performance to everyone whether you are a beginner or a pro. And it worked! We see Cohan van Dijk doing the craziest tricks on a world level, but also at our local hero’s easily breaks their height record. The updates of the North Orbit 2024 can be found in the details of the kite, so we can now say that the North Orbit is completely perfected.

Where the previous version of the Orbit was already a super stable and predictable kite in all conditions, this 2024 Orbit takes these characteristics to the next level. North has adjusted the bridle setup of the 2024 Orbit in such a way that the kite performs better in gusty conditions and is even easier to control in high winds, which has increased the predictability of the Orbit 2024 once again. Resulting in a kite which you will dare to send to the moon in the strongest conditions for higher jumps than ever before.
With the upgrade of the bridles, the shape of the leading edge is also more balanced. The continuous-curved arc LE is slightly narrower at the shoulders and slightly wider at the wingtips. As a result, the North Orbit 2024 has a more aerodynamic design and flies through the air with less drag. You will certainly also notice that this is the fastest Orbit ever, and then to keep in mind that the North Orbit already was the fastest 5 strut kite on the market! Kitelooping with a 5 strut kite has never been easier. The pull that the North Orbit 2024 gives in the kiteloop is very light, so that you can practice all types and variation of kiteloops with a lot of control.
For the Orbit 2024, the panel layout has been revised. This revised layout eliminates a few heavy panels and reduces the number of seams to a minimum. This makes the Orbit 2024 lighter, and the revised layout also contributes to a more aerodynamic profile, faster steering and finer feedback.
To top it off, the weight of all bladders in all Orbit 2024 kites has been reduced by 17% for a overall performance upgrade!

Of course, a lot of things have also remained unchanged about the North Orbit 2024. The Orbit 2024, for example, still has its unique high aspect ratio for hangtime and big air. However, this has been slightly reduced in the small sizes, so that these sizes now give a little more hangtime. The 5 strut design, which is the basis of the stable character of the North Orbit, will of course also be seen in 2024. Last year's bar pressure fine tune upgrade can also be found in the 2024 Orbit, so that you can use the kite in four different ways to your likings. The Orbit is reinforced with Kevlar at various points to extend the life of the Orbit.

In short, North has again delivered a great performance upgrade this year to make the mega 2024 Orbit the best Orbit ever. The North Orbit 2024 is the ideal kite for when you think big air is your thing! With the Orbit you can easily jump higher and practice your first kiteloops. But you can also see Cohan van Dijk doing the thickest double barrels with this North 2024 Orbit.
