Naish Kiteboarding announced the 2008 sigma series! The first available kite is the Helix. 
The Helix defines the natural evolution of using technologies to addapt to the larger depower range required in modern kites. If you are looking for the one kite to work in the widest range of conditions for all stlyles of riding, loog no further than the 2008 Helix. The core concept of Naish Sigma kites it a radically re-shaped leading edge that moves much of the center canopy area behind the tow point. The result is a kite that delivers significant performance improvements in 4 key areas - overall stability, bar pressure and feel, turning, and relaunch. The Sigma design produces a balanced, linear power band combined with bar pressure that remains light but steady through a wide range of trim angles, creating a nearly perfect feedback loop between rider and kite. Visually striking while providing amazing canopy tension, these kites have unmatched stability and wind range, recise handling, ligth and linear bar pressure, and unbelievably easy water re-launch. Nothing else compares. One glimpse, one ride, and you will never look at Kiteboarding the same again.
