Freestyle is one of the most spectacular kiteboarding disciplines and requires talent and perseveration. A good freestyler demands a good kite, a kite which can help him achieve top performance. The 2012 North Vegas is one of the most versatile and efficient freestyle and new school freestyle kites available today. The 2012 model is built on the pattern of the 2011 Vegas, but features a series of improvements which maximize overall performance.
The 2012 Vegas is built from high quality Technoforce D2 Fabrics. This material is stiffer and improves overall handling. At the same time, the use of this material allowed the North team to improve the tension on the trailing edge and the center profile to provide extra pop. The great thing about the North Vegas is that it can suit multiple styles. It can be tuned to suit freeride, freestyle and new school freestyle, depending on the rider’s choice. Depending on the settings, the kite offers predictable handling, great unhooked performance or explosive pop.
The Loaded 5th Line concept, based on a constant tension nose line assures a reactive steering and provides total depower in matter of seconds. The kite features Relaunch Bungees which assure fast water relaunch and prevent the lines from tangling. The bar pressure can also be adjusted. The rider can set it low to experience fast turns or increase it for a more direct feeling. The Vegas is enhanced by Cam Battens which significantly improve the upwind abilities and stability while reducing drag and back stall.
The kite uses a Dacron segmented leading edge which increases overall performance and durability. Fast and powerful, yet reliable and safe, the Vegas is a great freestyle machine.
