Our Test Team Thoughts

"The Navigator is a solid 4 line bar, and it's the standard bar across the North kite range, with all the safety features you'd expect. It'll fly any other brand's 4 line kite too, and we like the thicker feel of the bar and the texture of the EVA."

Performance & Feel

As the standard bar in North's control system range, the Navigator is built to be the reliable, everyday option: straightforward to rig, easy to trim, and safe when you need to flag out fast. It's a four-line bar with equal-length lines, so it works with any four-line kite, not just North.  Three bar lengths, 38-43cm, 45-50cm and 50-55cm, let you match the bar to your kite size and riding style, with the smaller size suited to freestyle and wakestyle kiting.

The Connect Quick Release is ISO 21853:2020 approved, with a single-action push-away release and reload that stays reliable under load. Dyneema SK99 flying lines keep the bar responsive with minimal stretch, while the above bar cleat system allows easy trim and holds your setting through a session. The grip has a noticeably thicker yet more connected feel in the hand, with colour-coded components that make it easy to check the bar's orientation at a glance.
