The Triad is for riders who want the ultimate wave kite in all conditions. Its impressive wind range has been enhanced with the Synergy Bridle System, a quick and easy bridle adjustment system that gives riders the freedom to switch between surfboard and twin-tip riding modes. The smooth transition into its squared-off wingtips has been redesigned to increase drift down the line, making it an absolute dream for wave riders. Its new-found agility, coupled with its large wind range, makes maneuvering through tricky sections of waves a breeze.
The Triad maintains its easy-to-use sheet-in-and-go performance with its deep draft and luff strut. The “Swift Tip” wingtip design makes the kite stronger and lighter overall. The Triad has been designed with durability and performance in mind, making it your favorite kite for years to come. This multifaceted kite is the complete package, offering intuitive handling, a responsive bar feel, and great surf performance. Get ready to transform your riding with the new Triad!
KEY FEATURES:
New - Synergy Bridle SystemQuick and easy bridle adjustments allow the kite to transform so you can dial in the performance you are looking for when wave riding or riding a twin tip.
New - Profile Lock SeamThe new seam along the high point in the kites profile provides extra support in the profile, giving you a more locked-in consistent feel, exactly where it should be, and keeping that form over time.
New - Lightweight Aerodynamic Bridle Lines TLS 500 bridle lines aid efficiency through the air and break the water surface tension for a smooth relaunch.
NEW- Bladder Cap ConstructionThe new wingtip bladder is designed to withstand higher leading-edge pressures.
Squared-off wing tipsIncreased drift down the line for wave riding.
Swift TipsThe new wingtip construction is 30% stronger than previous versions while being lighter and using less dacron. The canopy now extends all the way to the Leading Edge, giving the kite a more streamlined look and performance benefits such as more direct turning.
Luff StrutThe luff strut provides an adaptable framework for better low-end power.
Diagonal Load SeamDistributes kite tension for a more powerful and well-balanced kite.
Trailing-Edge Flutter DispersionThe trailing edge has a 2-ply QuadTex construction with flutter patterns, giving a tighter canopy and enhanced durability.
Quad-Tex Ripstop Fabric The Quad-Tex Ripstop fabric is the strongest and stiffest canopy on the market. Quad-Tex withstands punishing conditions while maintaining high-performance characteristics over the long term.
Progressive Profile Evolving the profile along the wingspan allows the center sections of the kite to generate power while the flatter tips minimize drag and allow for faster turning.
Thermoformed Bumpers Protect your kite from wear and tear when launching and landing.
Aramid PatchesProvide protection and reinforcement to the seams on the leading edge.
HT Plus SeamOur high-tenacity thread strengthens the leading edge along the seam, allowing you to confidently inflate your kite to a higher pressure for better flying performance.

QUAD-TEX
Our canopies are made out of Teijin Quad-tex, specifically developed with Naish to provide a rigid and responsive feel, also lasting over time to provide you with the same direct feel after one session or 100 sessions. Quad-tex is coated using a patented procedure, keeping the coating bonded and fresh on the material after prolonged UV and wind exposure. The 4x4 yarns provide a balanced, low stretch characteristic, maintaining the kite’s profile exactly how it was designed. Quad-tex is the highest quality canopy available on the market.
