KITE 810 COMPLETE
Freeride
For S25 Naish is pushing forward with creating a foil that is aimed at beginner-to-advanced riders looking for improved performance at the top end. The Kite 810 front wing features a medium-high aspect delta planform, mild center span anhedral, and washed out flattened wingtips for low drag and a balanced, easy feel. This wing is smooth with early takeoff and a wider range with higher speed and control. For improved pumping and top end speed we’ve paired it with the Jet HA 280 stabilizer. Wings are not the only things that are new, the S25 foils feature a redesigned fuselage and mast as well. The fuselage is lighter and has stainless steel helicoil inserts to further reduce potential corrosion. The 95 cm mast has been completely redesigned to be stiffer in both bending and torsional flex and is 25% lighter than previous years. The mast also features a new bonding system to the board mount as well as the fuselage connection resulting in a sealed and stiffer board connection system.

KITE 960 COMPLETE
Freeride
For kiters focused on smooth lift and easier progression, the Kite 960 is the new entry-level wing that refines proven concepts such as an elliptical low aspect planform and thin foil section to give entry level foilers the best possible experience on the water. Takeoffs are extremely smooth, with some delay to allow maximum comfort and control. Speed is good but not intimidating and the foil turns intuitively with a ‘surfy’ feel. For improved lift and carving stability we’ve paired it with the Kite 270 stabilizer. Wings are not the only things that are new, the S25 foils feature a redesigned fuselage and mast as well. The fuselage is lighter and has stainless steel helicoil inserts to further reduce corrosion. The 85 cm mast has been completely redesigned to be stiffer in both bending and torsional flex and is 20% lighter than previous years. The mast also features a new bonding system to the board mount as well as the fuselage connection resulting in a sealed and more direct board connection system.

KITE 650 FRONT WING - ACCESSORY
High End Freeride
It is the little brother to the Kite 810 and a perfect replacement for the 2020 Performance Freeride wing, the Kite 650 Front Wing has a gradual smooth take off and a wide speed range. Stable and comfortable. It can be used with the 210 or 280 back wing.
Built from the proven KS2, the 650 takes the DNA of the Kite 810 wing in a smaller, higher aspect version that still takes off early yet adds even more speed and control (especially in stronger winds). Featuring a medium-high aspect delta planform, mild center span anhedral and washed out flattened wingtips for low drag and and balanced, easy feel. Ideal for intermediate-to-expert riders, the Kite 650 perfectly blends smooth and early takeoff, a wider range and improved speed and control.
