North

North Kiteboarding is part of the North Actionsports Group, which is a part of the North Technology Group. The return of North Kiteboarding, previously run by Boards & More, came about after the North Technology Group announced an investment in the North Kiteboarding brand in 2020. Kite enthusiasts worldwide were skeptical - would it be possible to reintroduce a new premium brand to the market 20 years later? With the help of a handful of the most experienced and respected designers, the North Technology Group successfully created a full product range under the name North Kiteboarding. The product line, including kites such as the Orbit, Reach, Carve, and kiteboards like the Atmos, Astra, Focus, and Prime, has received a significant boost in recent years, making North one of the most successful brands to date.

North was established in 1957 when Olympic gold medalist and trained engineer Lowell North founded the brand. He aimed to revolutionize the sailing world, with North pioneering advanced computer modeling in the design and manufacturing processes. In 2019, the North Technology Group decided to invest in North Kiteboarding and merge with Mystic, giving rise to the current North Actionsports Group. North Actionsports Group is headquartered in the Netherlands and offers the highest quality kiteboard, windsurf, foil, wakeboard, and SUP products. North Kiteboarding succeeded in building a wide range of top-quality kitesurfing gear in a short period of time. In the first year, they introduced their most well-known kite, the North Orbit, along with the Puls and Carve. Later, they added the versatile North Reach to their lineup. Combined with the North Bar and Navigator, these kites ensure progression. Currently, like all other brands, they offer a broad range of high-quality kites, boards, and foils.

North Kiteboarding doesn't just develop its kites with the latest technologies; the development of kiteboards is also a continuous process. North Kiteboarding offers a board for every discipline. As you explore the collection of kiteboards, you'll discover the perfect match for your riding style, allowing you to maximize every session. From twintips to wave and directional surfboards, North's boards incorporate the latest techniques and innovations to provide you with the best possible quality and performance. One of the latest innovative features is the single concave combined with four channels in the tips, found in twintips like the North Atmos Carbon and North Atmos Astra. These channels provide extra grip, allowing you to handle more power and ride even faster. In all North boards, the outline, rocker, and flex are perfectly balanced, making it easier to ride upwind and boost with full confidence. North Kiteboarding will continue to innovate and set new standards in the kitesurfing world in the coming years – we're excited to see what's next!
