North Nova Wing

DESCRIPTION

A wing with power when needed and a sweet spot so generous it makes hard things easy. Maximum low-end to get you up on the foil earlier. Top-end performance that lets you exploit gusty conditions. Engineered to feel light in your hands, the2023 Novas progressive swept outline and refined profile section makes it easy to handle and stable when riding. The wingtip geometry and balanced dihedral prevent oscillation side-to-side when gripping the front handle, riding downwind swell, surfing, or simply walking towards the water. The curvature in the profile section generates more lift in the front of the wing, making transitions smoother, and when combined with improved canopy tensioning, boosts Novas low-end power. The stiff, responsive airframe means the canopy stays clean through a wide wind range. Weve minimised flutter and created a clean trailing-edge release with reduced drag. Then, to ensure the wing remains stable and comfortable in overpowered conditions, weve 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 youre chasing, the Nova will send you there faster.
