Naish S27 Pivot High-PerformanceFreeride/Big Air Kite

A perfect alliance between design and quality, the Pivot provides just the right balance of performance and versatility. Two-time King of the Air Champion and 2021 Big Air Kite League winner, the Pivot continues to lead the charge in freeride, surf, and big air disciplines. The Quad-Tex ripstop material is durable, delivering a lighter and more responsive kite. For additional reinforcement, we've added Dacron on the wingtips with a double ripstop design on the trailing edge. For those in search of an extra boost of adrenaline, the Pivot is the perfect kite.

This year we wanted to take the Pivot performance that you know and love and make it an absolute beast structurally so when you are boosting 20 m+ you have a rock solid kite that remains steady through your megaloops. To accomplish this, we reworked our front bridle to add an additional hard point onto the kite to help equalize the load distribution on the leading edge. This allows riders to push the kite hard and squeeze every meter out of the kite without fear of going too hard or too big. We spent countless hours testing and adjusting the bridles to get  the perfect balance of structural support and performance. The new bridles take the podium placing King of the Air performance and bring in the strength and structure needed for the next generation of riders.
