Technology

What makes it work.

N-Max2 Pro Material Airframe

A durable and lightweight airframe material. The multi-layer longitudinal weave improves consistency and tear strength and has greater bias elongation for more dynamic steering.

Boosts & loops, smooth reliable catch

Superb loft and hangtime with a compact steering radius, thanks to its medium-high aspect ratio design with wider wing-tip and well-balanced bridle.

Direct and Responsive Steering

Tactile handling with light bar pressure for a fast response and tight turning radius. Refined bridle tuning gives the Reach quick, exponential depower, in an even wider range of conditions.

Massive wind range & upwind drive

A precise, draft-forward profile for efficient aerodynamic profile entry. The single profile transition panel reduces the number of seams, creating a smooth transition from LE to canopy.

DuraLite seam protection

Lightweight Duralite reinforcement patches create a durable buffer along the LE seams, protecting the stitching from chafing and abrasion.

Improved low-end and depower

A slightly increased aspect ratio (0.15%), more sweep, refined bridle positioning, and lighter-weight materials give the kite a surprisingly light bar pressure, fast turning speed and balance.

Highest-quality bridle lines

Our precise low-profile, low-drag, no-pulley bridle lines are pre-loaded and measured before cutting to improve accuracy and consistency, reduce shrinkage and elongation, and aid longevity.

Segmented curve arc

The Reach arc shape allows tension to transition evenly through the canopy, as you would see in a catenary shape in nature.

Easy relaunch

The kite’s moderate leading-edge diameter provides additional buoyancy, helping the kite release quickly from the water in even the lightest conditions.

Excellent drift

The Reach is your go-to kite for foiling and wave riding. It has well-balanced tactile surf handling, quick responsive steering, neutral static balance, and excellent drift.
