Predictable and versatile, the Triad has had some big upgrades this year. The kite is not only perfect for taking your twintip riding up a level, but it now excels in all types of surf riding. The wingtip shape has been redesigned to increase drift and down-the-line performance. The kite has been swept back to increase turning speed and lighten the bar pressure. With a lower aspect ratio, the Triad is faster and lighter, making it perfect for stomping new moves or navigating tricky sections in the waves. The Triad maintains its sheet-in-and-go performance due to its luff strut and fairly deep draft, making it an easy kite to progress from beginner to higher level riding. We have redesigned the Dacron structure of the kite to strategically place reinforcements only where needed, increasing strength and decreasing overall weight. This multifaceted kite merges ease of use, surf performance, and light responsive bar feel.
Disciplines: All-around freeride/WAVE
Available in Sizes: 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 14
The new wingtip construction is 30% stronger than previous versions while being lighter and using less dacron. The canopy now extends to the Leading Edge, giving the kite a more streamlined look and performance benefits such as more direct turning.
The Teijin quadruple ripstop, Quad-Tex, is a material exclusive to Naish. It is the strongest, most responsive kite canopy material available on the market. The New 2023 Triad is built to last.
Distributes kite tension for a more powerful and well-balanced kite and enhances steering feedback.
