Naish Ride

Naish has launched a new kite The Ride aimed at beginners and intermediate riders

This is what Naish say

INTRODUCING THE RIDE…

THE WAY KITEBOARDING SHOULD BE.

Kiteboarding should be easy. That’s why we created a kite and board combo that delivers easy control and use with no loss of performance.

“The Ride [kite] was derived from the base origins of the Park, but with more focus on a ‘sheet in and go’ feel and water relaunch ease. Our R&D team set out to create a kite that was simple, easy and fun for ‘all around, hooked-in freeriding’; and a kite that a novice or entry level rider could use for learning the basics and improving into an advanced rider.” ~ Damien Girardin, Naish Kite Designer

“The Ride board features a single concave bottom and a medium flex allowing the rider to focus on having fun. The outline has been tuned for early planing and control. The modern tip design prevents spray from hitting the rider’s eyes.” ~ Ian Ponting, Naish Board Designer
