North /Naish Demo with Intheloop Kiteboarding on Thursday 6th at Pallarenda from 2pm onwards.

Call us on: 0415 837 484 if any questions

Hope we have some winds Joe!!

Peace*

Isn't the underground a board designed for riders who use wakeboard boots? That's the impression I got from the limited press.

Why Naish is not updating it's website to let us know at least what you are demoing on the other side of the OZ?
Do you have Charger for demo?
Will you please write a review on Charger?
We've been watching the underground photos for months and we still don't know what it is!

Idiot,
unfortunately we are in the process of rebuilding our website, and therefore the old one hasnt been updated for some time.
we are looking at options to get over to the west coast with the kites, but it wont happen for a while. Dan at kite adiction /windsurfing perth will have a set of Naish demo kites very soon though, so could be a good idea to talk to him if you are close to Perth metro. otherwise keep an ear out for our plans for the west coast.
As for the Charger, I still havent ridden one, I will let you know what its like when I finally get one in the air.

to everyone else, im in Mackay now, it looked like there was some breeze about on the drive up today, so hopefully it stays in and we can get a ride tomorrow.
see those of you who can make it then.

Hi Guys,

we had our Naish and North demo yesterday in Mackay. Thanks to Aiden for his information and efforts on the beach. We had sic weather, with a nice 15knots wind with an outgoing tide.

We had the-
12mtr Rebel
12mtr Vegas
11mtr Torch
9mtr Cult,

Ill work on reviews and pics today.

Joe

had a very nice demo here in Townsville yday. Thanx to all the people rocked up.
Some very nice stuff. we will put photos up tonight.

My favourite kite was the 9m Cult.

Do you have pictures of the boards (other than the Jamie and x-ride which are on the north site)?

Is there still a 138 Sky pro model? or did they phase it out with the 137 Jamie

yea mante pretty much of all tintips.. give me an hour!

As promised, here are some pics of the gear at Pallarenda, Townsville.
















and there's a couple more on my profile

The vegas look sick!!
Anyone rode the kites? Reviews?

Thanks to Marv and Luke for the photos. and to all the shops who have put on the demos so far, its been a great tour. We have been having some good winds so far, fingers crossed they continue...
I wont write too much on the kites as it will be pretty clear to everyone that I have a slight bias, however finding all the 2010 gear really impressive, especially the Naish Cult 9m and the the North team 135, a combo that got even me planing in 13-16kn at Mackay!!! and is so much fun to ride, the light bar pressure that can be achieved on the cult and its ultraquick turning speed make for a really fun kite.
I have also been spending a bit of time on the Rebel 12m which has LOTS of bottom end this year, coupled with all the good of last years Rebel and with the added stability of five struts again this year.

I (and the demo gear) will be on the sunshine coast for the next few days:
wed: Agnes waters/1770
thur or fri: Noosa
sat: Caloundra
before heading to Brisbane for Sunday.
once again contact your closest North/Naish dealer for exact locations and times to get a chance to fly/ride the new gear.
hope to see you then.

just been 2 castaways, the north boards look awesome

all,
due to the wind on the sunshine coast being very uncooperative the Caloundra "demo" will be held at Sunshine coast sailboards/Kite Action from 12 tomorrow (saturday).
We will still pump all the small kites and all the boards will be on display so come down and have a look, if the wind gods take pity we might even be able to shift to get a ride, but we will meet at the shop at 12 either way.



And the rumors are true, I have recieved the brand new Helix and charger demo kites, still need to fly both in anger before I can review either however the helix looks better even than I remmbered and the Charger looks like an interisting project for Naish... come and have a look.
