Introducing the Naish Helix 2009

Naish have been at the forefront of the kiteboarding industry since the very beginning. A few years ago the bow kite took the kiting world by storm and Naish have developed this concept even further. The Helix is part of Naish's Sigma Series. The kites stand out for their truly unique shape which features an angled leading edge as opposed to the usual smooth one. This is done to improve airflow and increase speed through the air, turning speed and stability. The Helix is known to be a very powerful kite. Naish offer industry leading built quality too.



Official description of the Naish Helix 2009

The Helix continues to lead the revolutionary Sigma
Series. For 2009, it has been totally redesigned to
provide super fast turning, superior glide, great
upwind ability, easier water relaunch, more direct
bar feel, and a 5th line friendly option.
These improvements have been achieved by
reducing the number of struts, lowering the aspect
ratio, developing a new bridle platform and
reworking the arc; making it the first ever GeoTech
Generated C-Shaped arc.
We have also incorporated the Low Drag Wingtip
and Direct Response Steering technologies into our
new wingtip design. To complete the Helix line, we
have added two new sizes.
For intermediate to advanced riders who seek the
highest all-terrain performance, and those looking
to course race.
