Freeride/Foiling

Designed primarily for foiling, the Boxer has proven to be so adaptable and accessible, it appeals to all skillsets and riding styles.

A single luff strut marries the best characteristics of strutless and strutted kite designs. The strut relaxed connection to the canopy creates a dynamic structure, which allows the canopy to freely expand and contract, while maintaining the strength of a strutted framework to handle heavier loads with ease.

An outstanding underpowered kite, the Boxer is incredibly easy to relaunch, light to the touch, responsive but gentle. Very easy to sheet in and go, this kite is quick, easy to control and generates power quickly. It light and lively feel at the fingertips makes it approachable and forgiving.

Sizes: 3.5, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 14, 16

NEW FOR 2018/19:

Reduced Weight = Quad-Tex enables the removal of the dacron reinforcement layer at each strut, resulting in a further reduction in overall weight
Shark Teeth Trailing Edge = Larger and more effective
Bridles, wing tip shape & leading edge diameter have been worked to deliver consistent performance from size to size
Bladder Lock = Secures bladders ends and prevents slippage
HT Plus = Strong, high-tensile thread fortifies the leading edge

FEATURES

Quad-Tex: strongest kite canopy material on the market featuring 4x-reinforced ripstop
Shark Teeth Trailing Edge: strategically placed triangular swaths work with Quad-Tex to reduce weight on the kite while minimizing and dispersing canopy flutter.
Bladder Lock: Secures bladders ends and prevents slippage
HT Plus: strong, high-tensile thread fortifies the leading edge
Airmax Pump (Sold Separately): making the experience of kite-inflation practically effortless, the all new Airmax Pump is the fastest and easiest on the market to date.
Shoulder Foil Carry: padded grove secures the foil into place for comfortable, pain-free foil transport.
Single Luff Strut: allows kite center to expand & contract freely for easy relaunch and high-end control
Reduced Leading Edge Taper: solid feel + stability + control in high winds
High Flow Valve: one-way valve for reduced frictional force + easy inflation + immediate deflation

Boxer Bag

Open top drawstring design = quick packing
Mesh drainage patch at bottom
External loops + adjustable straps = hold pump + extra gear

TECHNOLOGY

Swept Compact C: the swept compact C-shape blends the pop and lift of a C-kite with the power, control, and turning of a swept leading edge kite. In addition, it provides ideal relaunch capabilities.

HD Radial Segmented Arc: the HD Radial Segmented shape uses twice the amount of short linear segments to accurately form the kite arc, resulting in increased arc definition and a more solid kite.

Evolutive Profile: The profile depth and shape evolves along the airfoil, helping create a fast flying, stable kite with less back stalling. The center sections generate power thanks to a deeper profile, while the flatter profile in the tips minimizes drag and allows faster turning.

Octopus Inflation System: This proven, quick, and easy single-point inflation system creates uniform pressure in the struts and leading edge. Naish exclusive one-way internal valve ensures that the pressure within the struts does not change during turns.

Anti-stiction Window: the wing tip features a flow-through window, which reduces static friction and allows for easy relaunch by letting water drain instantly.

CONSTRUCTION

Easy access zipper placement: extremely easy access to the internal valve when replacing bladders.

Molded te reinforcement: optimal trailing edge protection with a molded reinforcement at the end of each strut.

Molded bumpers: large thermo-molded bumpers wrap around the leading edge, which provide seam protection when landing and launching the kite.

Aramid patches: patches along LE segments to protect the seams.

Shark teeth trailing edge: buffers and disperses canopy flutter to reduce wear and enhance durability

2-piece leading edge: this construction provides better twist control of the leading edge, and improves turning performance.

Vertical seam struts: reduction in the number of pieces used in the struts means more precision in defining the canopy profile. The seams are also reinforced with an extra layer of webbing, and double zigzag stitches to avoid breakage.

High flow valve: one-way valve for reduced frictional force, easy inflation and immediate deflation.
