Naish Thrust Carbon Kite Foil 2019
IN A NUTSHELL...
Forgiving and user-friendly, the 2019 Thrust Kite Foil Carbon delivers a super smooth foiling experience for anyone from beginner to advanced to cruise on. Its segmented front wing combines the stability of a dihedral shape with the early take-off and low speed lift of an anhedral wing. Tuned for balance, this foil setup reduces pumping time by helping riders quickly find a stable plane and lock in, while the higher aspect ratio lengthens the glide.
