Naish Triad Kite 2023
IN A NUTSHELL...
Predictable and versatile, the Naish Triad has had some big upgrades this year. The kite is not only perfect for taking your twin tip riding up a level, but it now excels in all types of surf riding.
Design details
All-around Freeride/Wave
Sizes: 4 / 5 / 6 / 7 / 8 / 9 / 10 / 11 / 12 / 14M
The wingtip shape has been redesigned to increase drift and down the line performance. The kite has been swept back to increase turning speed and lighten the bar pressure. With a lower aspect ratio, the Triad is faster and lighter, making it perfect for navigating tricky sections in the waves, but maintains its predictable flying characteristics, promoting progression in all disciplines. The Triad maintains its sheet in and go performance due to its luff strut and fairly deep draft, making it an easy kite to progress from beginner to higher level riding. We have redesigned the dacron structure of the kite to strategically place reinforcements only where needed, increasing strength and decreasing overall weight. This multifaceted kite merges ease of use, surf performance, and light responsive bar feel into one intuitive package.
Features
Quad-Tex Ripstop Fabric
The Quad-Tex Ripstop fabric is the strongest and stiffest canopy on the market. Quad-Tex withstands punishing conditions while maintaining high-performance characteristics over the long term
Molded Strut Ends
The molded strut ends provide additional reinforcements to protect the struts from natural wear and tear
Aramid Patches
Provides protection and reinforcement to the seams on the leading edge
One Point Inflation System
Provides quick and easy inflation and deflation of the kite
Luff Strut
Adaptable framework made with a fill panel provides low-end power and downwind drift
Trailing Edge Flutter Dispersion
The trailing edge has a 2-ply QuadTex construction with flutter dispersing triangles gives a tighter canopy and enhanced durability
NEW - Swift Tips
The new wingtip construction is 30% stronger than previous versions, while being lighter and using less dacron. The canopy now extends all the way to the Leading Edge giving the kite a more streamlined look and performance benefits such as more direct turning
Progressive Profile
Evolving the profile along the wingspan allows the center sections of the kite to generate power while the flatter tips minimize drag and allow for faster turning
Diagonal Load Seam
Distributes kite tension for a more powerful and well-balanced kite, and enhances steering feedback
Thermoformed Bumpers
Protect your kite from wear and tear when launching and landing
HT Plus Seam
Our high-tenacity thread strengthens the leading edge along the seam, allowing you to confidently inflate your kite to a higher pressure for better flying performance
