No new foils until spring of 2027...

At least my credit card will remain undamaged for a while then..!

Unfortunately the only thing that calls is a change to a new system/brand!

Very hard to see what's new on their site - no sign of any new masts - wasn't there a nice looking surf one in the mix?

Yes the new parawing sounds good but its priced at that point with every other good parawing so what would make you buy it. Looking forward to the reviews on it - I see a few out today!

While the SF foils are great, there is an opportunity for a SF/DW merged foil, maybe 10/11 aspect ratio. The SF530 has that blend, Uli mentioned that took some of the DW profile - would be nice to see one in the 700-900 realm. If that is left till next year they will be way behind everyone else.

Yeah, North is done(for foils at least). This industry moves faster than "No new foils till 2027". They had something special for a min now they are just another kite brand that also makes their own foils that nobody cares about. Also you could never really take them seriously not having viable mast lengths for prone. THANK YOU, NEXT

Sounds like you're describing the KT Atlas

Or the AfS Enduro ??

If you have any experience with these foils, would you be willing to compare them?

Hi, I'm currently using Sonar SF 1080 and 830 foils.

I'm considering switching to the DUOTONE CREST 1050 and 800 foils. I've heard they're fantastic.

If you have any experience with these foils, would you be willing to compare them?
Thanks

Does anyone actually know if the DW series are improved by using a C650 fuse. One of the guys I was talking to swears the DW foils are significantly better on a C650 midsize fuse than the C700 or C600 (he does sell North gear and other brands but that is not relevant to his thinking). I've got the C700 & S192 with the DW900 but would get a S142 and C650 if it is that much better?

The Recommended Foil Assist setups in the current North catalogue indicates the C650 and S142 would be a good combination with the DW900. Thoughts?

73CM UHM Mast finally arrived. What a pleasant surprise after waiting since Fall of 25. Def less drag, going to be fun for trash bag and DW. But loved it in the surf, def could tell I was getting snappier turns on my SF830 and 680. Didn’t wear my watch but it was feeling faster as well on jumps and broad reaches. Pretty much the same results that people are feeling on lots of UHM’s.
