2026 North Orbit Ultra Kite
The North Orbit Ultra is the ultralight edition of North's big-air weapon — built for riders who want the Orbit's explosive boost and huge hangtime, extended deep into the light-wind range. A dramatically lighter airframe gets it flying and drifting when heavier kites fall out of the sky, so you keep sending it long after everyone else has packed up.
North strips weight from the Orbit without losing its signature power and stability. An ultra-thin airframe, high-velocity ultra-thin bridles and a Response 6-point bridle keep this lighter frame rigid and connected, while a boost-tuned, higher-aspect profile drives incredible upwind and the kind of towering, floaty jumps the Orbit is famous for.
Key features
- Response 6-point bridle system to support the thinner airframe
- High-velocity ultra-thin bridles for reduced drag and direct response
- Contoured PTP2 Aerodynamic Profile Transition Panels
- Boost high-lift profile for incredible upwind and boosting performance
- Higher aspect ratio for snappier response and dynamic recovery
- Forward-draft profile for stability, especially when overpowered
Who it's for
Advanced riders chasing maximum boost and hangtime, and anyone who wants to turn marginal, light-wind days into serious big-air sessions. If you already love the Orbit but want to ride it lighter and earlier, the Ultra is the answer.
Choosing your size
The Orbit Ultra runs in a precise 5.9m to 12m range, with closely spaced sizes so you can dial in exactly the right kite for your weight and the day's wind. The larger sizes (10–12m) are the light-wind big-air specialists; the smaller sizes hold their shape and boost hard when it's on. Not sure which sizes suit your quiver and local conditions? Get in touch — we ride these waters and can point you to the right setup.
