Naish Helix Press Release
The 2008 Naish Helix defines the natural evolution of using technologies to adapt to the large depower range required in modern kites. If you are looking for the one kite to work in the widest range of conditions for all styles of riding, look no further than the 2008 Helix. The 2008 Helix emerges as the choice for intermediate through advanced kiters seeking the highest performance ride that excels equally in all areas.
Stability, turning, wind range, jumping, upwind ability, free riding, kitelooping, speed, freestyle, waveriding, easy water relaunch, all benefit from the engineering innovations incorporated into Geo-Tech and Sigma.
The static canopy tension provided by Geo-Tech results in a super clean and defined profile that provides solid response thru the entire depower range, and results in a kite with the widest wind range of anything on the market. The Sigma outline provides two significant advantages, first it changes the center of effort in the kite such that this point does not change during the depower range, and secondly Sigma allows the kites wingtip to twist in a manner that initiates lightening quick turning.
