Q-SERIES LEADING EDGE MATERIALS
Naish's leading edges are made of the best, most durable and safe materials available.

Teijin Dacron is strong, safe, UV stable and durable, meaning your kite will last and stay consistent over time. Naish canopies are made out of Teijin Quad-tex to provide a rigid and responsive feel.

We utilize their new High Tensile thread in the stitching process, which is of the highest marine grade to make sure seams are strong, safe and secure. These stitching methods have also been refined over many years of working with the factory, and this has resulted in kites with the lowest failure rates on the market.

The PU bladders are the perfect balance of weight and durability. Naish has tested many different bladders over the years, and what they use now is the perfect balance of durability and weight to ensure that the customer never misses a session due to leaks or failures. Due to the bladders, stitching, valves and bladder cap constructions, you can safely use the highest PSI inflation pressures to give your kite a precise and responsive feeling.

Naish valves are made out of two components. Before they mount the valve into the bladder, each and every component is combined, pressurized twice and individually numbered. It then becomes a unique set which is tracked and marked as safe to use. The quality control team makes sure that each and every bladder is inflated and tested for 24 hours before insertion into the kite. Once it is in the kite, it is then re-inflated for another 8 hours at its recommended PSI value. Once all components are checked and pass QC, each kite is then photographed and numbered so that Naish can keep track of every product and easily pull reference. This ensures that only the highest quality product ever reaches the end consumer.

Safety on the water starts with a quality product, and Naish is proud to say that every product meets their high standards. From the ideation phase, to the design process and all the way to the last step of production, they make sure that they provide loyal customers with the highest quality and safest product available, so that all you have to worry about is having a good time!

QUAD-TEX
The strongest and stiffest canopy on the market, Quad-tex withstands intense conditions while maintaining long-term high-performance qualities.

Naish canopies are made out of Teijin Quad-tex, specifically developed 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 kites profile exactly how it was designed. Quad-tex is the highest quality canopy available on the market, and also available at an affordable price.
