Check out North’s 2024 Foil line-up, including a new version of their one-strut Code Zero kite.
The 2024 Kitefoil collection from North lands effortlessly between wind and water, between kite and foil, and between worlds. Discover refined performance, intuitive technology and handling so effortless that your hardest move will be choosing your foilboard and front wings.
The Code Zero kite is engineered using lighter weight, lower elongation N-Max Dacron for a crisp response, more direct steering and more dynamic recovery. Our lightest kite yet, the single-strut Code Zero has a playful and agile feel with dynamic steering. For 2024 we’ve revised the bridle and further improved TE tensioning for a smoother, more efficient design with responsive power delivery in all conditions.
“Effortless and fluid manoeuvrability in even the most subtle conditions. The Code Zero is an essential part of my quiver so that even the most unexpected days can be harnessed to the fullest.” – Jesse Richman, Professional Kiteboarder.
Sizes: 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 14 m
The Code Zero is a highly efficient kite with a wide wind range and impressive power delivery for a one-strut kite – so you can ride lighter wind conditions with a smaller kite. For 2024 we’ve updated the Code Zero with a newly revised bridle for a more rigid feel, lighter bar pressure, more direct steering response and added stability. We’ve optimised the angle of attack in the wingtip and improved the tension in the trailing edge for smoother aerodynamics and reduced flutter. We’ve also introduced three new sizes to the range: 6, 8 and 10m.
If there were one kite I would be stuck on an island with, it would be the Code Zero. It’s powerful, it’s light and it flies in absolutely everything. It’s simple one-strut and four-lines design takes all the faff away. It’s quick to pump up and get on the water, plus I beat my brother downwind on it the other day (that’s why it’s my favourite kite). – Tom Bridge, Professional Kiteboarder
When we set out to design the Scoop Mini, we wanted to craft a board that would perform a single task to the highest standard possible. Instead of trying to do it all, we’ve focused on the essential. The Scoop Mini is a direct and responsive high-performance kite foilboard for more advanced riders. Featuring a compact, ultralight hybrid carbon construction with durable, high-density core.
“The Scoop Mini is a big part of my dream foil setup; it’s fast, agile, and provides a seamless connection between you and your foil. One cool aspect of kitefoiling is that you can swap the front wings and get a completely different ride. But you never really need to change your kite foil board. The Scoop is easy to travel with and all you could ever want for every style of kite foiling.”- Jesse Richman
A versatile, direct and responsive performance foilboard with instant touchdown recovery. The Scoop features an intuitive concaved deck for smooth transitions and easy steering. The lightweight Hybrid Carbon construction is engineered with a structurally reinforced core for impact resistance and rigidity. Combined with its forgiving hull shape, this durable construction makes the Scoop ideal for Freeride and Freestyle foiling. For 2024 we’ve re-engineered the Scoop with a triplane hull design for earlier takeoffs and faster release. The angled-planing surfaces, refined rocker and finer bevelled rails give the board a more balanced, forgiving touchdown recovery on more variable angles.

SONAR MA850v2 FRONT WING
The new MA850 V2 gets up early and goes fast. Highly agile, it retains a locked-in feel for upwind and powered riding and is pitch stable across the speed range.
HA550/HA650/HA750 FRONT WINGS
The smaller HA550-HA1050 have less planing surface and higher stall speed. They are designed to generate maximum efficiency and lift for high-speed wing foiling, racing, and kite foiling.
