North Foiling

The 2023 Nova has a structurally balanced freeride shape for enhanced aerodynamic performance. Engineered for stability in gusty winds, the new Nova has a progressive swept outline and refined profile section, making it easier to handle and more stable when riding. Your front and back arm pressure is even, not backhand-heavy.

The wing creates lift so that you can glide through turns effortlessly without any tail drop. Precise yet compliant. The wingtip geometry and balanced dihedral also prevent oscillation side-toside when gripping the front handle, riding downwind swell, surfing, or simply walking towards the water. With a sweet spot so generous, it makes hard things easy.

The new draft-forward curvature in the profile section generates more lift in the front of the wing. This makes transitions smoother and, when combined with improved canopy tensioning, boosts Nova’s low-end power. So much so you can drop down a size. The stiffer, more responsive airframe and tighter skin tensioning mean the canopy stays clean through a wider wind range.

We’ve minimised flutter and created a clean trailing edge release with reduced drag. To ensure the wing remains stable and comfortable in overpowered conditions, we've tapered the leading-edge diameter, concentrating the stiffness in the LE centre and allowing the reflexed wingtips to dump excess power. Master of the upwind, glide through tacks, float through gybes, and lofty jumps with bonus hangtime. Whatever goal you’re chasing, the Nova will send you there faster.

This lightweight waist belt with sliding harness attachment points for both your board leash and your wing leash is adjustable for all waist sizes. A high-quality nylon webbing wing leash (for wing use only) is included with the waist belt for easy-grip and fast wing retrieval. Good elasticity in the webbing and bungy-cord core provides greater forgiveness and helps to soften the jolt when your wing escapes.

Please note: the Wing Leash supplied with this waist belt is designed to secure your Nova Wing. To secure your board, we recommend you connect the North Quick Release Board Leash (sold separately) to the second attachment loop on the waist belt.

Features

• Adjustable for all waist sizes with quick release safety
• Dual sliding attachment points - wing leash up QR board leash down

North foil wing wrist leash.

Elasticised leash for easy grip and fast wing retrieval. Supplied with all Nova wings, the high-quality nylon webbing leash features good elasticity in the webbing and bungee cord core, providing greater forgiveness and helping to soften the jolt when your wing escapes. With easy one-handed velcro fastening and fast, safe release when needed.

While your front wing creates vertical lift, your stabilizer has a downward acting force, which prevents the front wing from nose-diving. A larger stabilizer translates into more front foot pressure, while a smaller stabilizer equals less front foot pressure.

The North stabs are mounted on top of the fuselage, which helps them to avoid turbulence from the flow of the front wing, creating a smoother ride. This top mounting also gives the rider an early breach warning - the stab pierces the water surface first, giving you a better chance of recovery before your front wing gets too high.

Like the Front Wings, all Sonar Stabilizers are pre-preg carbon construction, ensuring optimal stiffness and direct performance. The thin profile section reduces drag, while the material properties help maintain structural integrity and rigidity.

Stabs have a huge influence on performance. As you progress to smaller wing sizes, we recommend changing to a smaller stabilizer to be more manoeuvrable. Experienced riders will really feel the difference. A new tail can have a big impact on your style.

We say, how high? With updated volumes for each board length, you can now ride a full size shorter.

North Sonar High Modulus Carbon Foil Mast.

Impossibly thin. Impressively fast. North has reduced the thickness of the submerged portion of their new High Modulus Prepreg Carbon masts by over 15% compared to their standard Carbon masts, while also increasing both bending and torsional stiffness.

The HM80 Favours disciplines without wind power - prone surf, pump and downwind. The shorter chord length over the entire mast length reduces drag and increases maneuverability. This delivers more glide, more efficient pumping, and quicker turns.

The HM85 covers all disciplines, with a focus on wing-foiling. Wind-powered disciplines require edging against the wind to create forward drive. Some of this drive comes from the front wing, and some comes from the mast. To efficiently provide this drive, the chord length in the submerged part of the mast is slightly longer. It increases near the top of the mast to maximize stiffness with no drag penalty, as this part of the mast is clear of the water once on foil. A more efficient underwater body shape means less drag and, hence, high and easier-to-reach top-end speed. Ventilation on the mast is now a thing of the past. North paid particular attention to this detail, so no matter the sea state, ventilation on the mast's TE is significantly reduced.

The HM105 has been optimized for racing. The thickness of the submerged part of the mast is a further 1mm thinner than the HM80 and HM85, to provide maximum top-end speed. As a result, this mast is not for jumping. Like the HM85, the chord length in the submerged region has been tailored to provide good upwind drive, while the chord length increases above the waterline to maximize stiffness. A more efficient underwater body shape means less drag and, hence, high and easier-to-reach top-end speed.

North Mode Ultra Race Wind Wing 2024.

The Mode Ultra is a fast and direct high-performance race wing powered by N-Xi, a new ultra-stiff, ultra-high-modulus composite canopy material by North Sails Advanced Textiles. 
 At North, they understand the racer’s relentless quest for speed and the pursuit of “the fastest.” North also recognize that high-intensity, high-speed wingfoiling requires more than technical prowess and fearlessness. When you are foiling at speeds in excess of 55km/h confidence is crucial. 
 Our engineers have fine-tuned the Mode Ultra to match a racer’s instinct and intellect. The stability and the structure of the N-Weave45 Airframe with anti-deflection Carbon UDi Tapes and N-Xi canopy are critical for resisting deformation. The stiffness translates into an extremely responsive, direct feel and unrivalled control at speed.

The Mode Ultra is VMG-optimized for sailing closer to the wind on higher upwind angles. Its higher aspect ratio design, thin, low-drag profile and flatter dihedral generate forward thrust, lift and stability at a higher apparent wind speed, while its stiff airframe and canopy combination enhances the low-end performance to carry your speed through the lulls. North optimised the design to enable you to upsize your wing and ride in the upper range, with confidence that the wing can depower efficiently when required, yet maintain the sail area needed to go downwind when the apparent wind speed drops.


North love racing because it teaches and entices us to flirt with danger, push our limits mentally and physically, and achieve what people never thought was possible. The Mode Ultra race wing. Unbelievably powerful. Impossibly Fast.

2024 North Nova Wing.

The 2024 Nova has had a substantial redesign form the previous version. The focus is on Freeride with a balanced, easy-to-use all-round wing with a wide wind range, low end power, high-end stability, and light, intuitive handling. For 2024, North introduced Carbon UDi Technology into the wingtips, stiffening the airframe and enabling it to snap back into shape faster after tricks and manoeuvres. They have also changed the draft position and depth, giving it better forward drive and projection, making the wing even more balanced and user-friendly. The new radial load diffuser ensures more even tensioning and a tighter canopy for enhanced performance. The new Nova is the Master of the upwind, glide through tacks, float through gybes, and lofty jumps with bonus hangtime. Whatever goal you’re chasing, the Nova will send you there faster.
