Naish Monarch 2016 Kiteboard
IN A NUTSHELL...
The 2016 Naish Monarch kiteboard targets riders looking for cutting-edge design with energized freestyle performance. It delivers very direct power for upwind drive and explosive freestyle pop on-demand. Gradually tapering rails produce outstanding grip, powerful flex and directional stability. Lightweight, double-layer basalt fiber yields incredible strength-to-weight ratio and uniquely responsive flex—decreasing chances of distortion under the extreme loads of hard landings.
