The 'Neo' 2012 Complete Packages from £1049
complete with a 2012 North Trust Bar - 2012 Gonzalez Board - Pump - Kite Bag - with a choice of Kite and Board sizes
The North Neo emerges in the North kites line-up as a comfortable and super easy handling all-rounder with easy relaunch and predictable bar feedback.
The 2012 Neo is a performance free ride kite that combines elements of the Evo, like smooth and predictable power development, with the simplicity of three struts into a stylish all-round package. The Neo’s short, round shape and pivotal turning makes it the perfect tool for tight, compact kite loops. The reduced weight of three struts allows for comfortable “drifting” in the waves and provides excellent park and ride surfing. The Neo can be ridden on 4 or 5 lines and is an ideal kite for riders with a keen eye on simplicity and ease of use. Super durable and made with our highest quality materials and construction methods, the Neo is built to last.
If you are looking for an easy, comfortable kite with huge depower and lively steering characteristics, you just found it. The softer structure of the North Neo is the key to high reactivity in steering, combined with the huge depower the North Neo feels also absolutely at home in waves.
The steering is lively yet absolutely predictable. The safety works fast and effective. The North Neo's round and compact shape flies equally well making it a great kite for a wide range of riders and riding styles.
Smooth, lively and responsive steering, even when de-powered, makes it the ideal kite for surfing and a blast to ride in any conditions.
The loaded 5th line design, in addition to providing safety, gives the Neo its short and aggressive power stroke that is up to 30% shorter than bridled kites.
This means huge range and top-end comfort on those super windy days and the ability to instantly turn the power off and on at will as you link your turns down the line.
The North Neo’s unique steering sensitivity and smoothness have also been improved by implementing a straight segment in the leading edge for an ultra clean, flutter-free canopy near the tips that keeps you connected and in-tune to the kite’s every movement.
