NP High Loft Concept – Concept and Benefits

The NeilPryde High Loft concept was born from the continuous pursuit of performance that began with the original Fly. In the FireFly Pro LTD, it has been evolved with flatter entry sections and increased canopy tension. This results in a wing capable of climbing higher into the wind, expanding its range of use, while maintaining responsiveness, light handling, and very early launch. The optimized profile improves stability even at the most "radical" speeds.

• Early take-off , ideal even in marginal conditions
• Better upwind performance thanks to the flat entry section
• Responsive handling and immediate response even with one hand
• Less fatigue on long sessions thanks to the balance of forces between the canopy and the frame

Benefits over the previous FireFly

• Reduced wingspan to avoid impact with the water during rotations or on chop (essential for freestyle and wave)
• New canopy tensions for a quicker response and constant thrust
• Lightened and stiffened structure thanks to the AeroTex and Aluula materials, introduced in the Pro
• Easier to change hands in turns/gybes and advanced freestyle
• Integrated stitched batten system makes the trailing edge flatter, faster and flutter-free

Differences in shape and design

• Ultra-compact shape : compared to the previous generation, the new outline has a narrower camber, which allows for smoother maneuvers without the risk of touching the water
• Redesigned profile that lowers the power point and improves control even in gusts
• Great for smaller riders, women and teenagers

Advanced features of the new Boom (Mono Handle Carbon)

• Material : Lightweight and durable carbon mono-handle, developed to guarantee all the advantages of a boom, but in a compact and transportable format
• Ergonomic front drop grip : allows for a quick and intuitive grip during transitions, downwind turns, duck turns and reversible maneuvers
• Design inspired by NeilPryde's industry-leading Fly handle
• It allows total control of the kite even with just one hand, freeing the body in wave maneuvers
• Length designed for perfect balance between power and trim (change trim in flight without moving the handle)
• It really facilitates advanced freestyle maneuvers like 360 ​​spins, ducks and spinning gybes

Integral Batten System

• Composite battens sewn directly into the wing ("sewn-in battens")
• The trailing edge is flatter, more stable and faster
• Maximum flutter reduction even at high speeds
• Greater lift consistency and response during acceleration

High-tech materials

• Aluula Aeris : used on the wing tips, super light and super rigid material that increases grip and reduces the total weight
• AeroTex : used in the central section of the leading edge and in the central strut, increased stiffness and responsiveness for the wing structure
• PVC Windows : High-strength PVC viewing windows ensure transparency, mechanical resistance and maximum safety in waves and extreme freestyle.
• Reinforced seams around the entire perimeter to prevent sagging under the most intense stresses

Tubular Bag – Details on the bag

• Tubular design for easy wing insertion and removal even with mono handle mounted
• Multifunctional shoulder strap that can be used as a waist leash
• Protects the mono handle and prevents accidental impacts during transport

FireFly Pro LTD vs FireFly Standard – Differences

Extended main functions (as requested)

• Carbon Mono Handles: Lightweight and durable carbon mono handles offer boom-like handling, with an anatomical drop grip and an ergonomic design inspired by the Fly NP handles. It offers the best of both worlds: the power of a boom, the lightness and precision of a single handle.
• High-Tech Material Construction: Mix of Aluula Aeris on the tips and AeroTex in the center that provide lightness, stiffness and superior response without losing control and power.
• Improved Canopy Design: Compact outline, higher canopy tension, instant response, improved manageability – a true evolution over any previous generation.
• PVC Windows: Impact-resistant windows for maximum visibility and safety even in heavy wave conditions; designed for freestyle and hard tricks.
• Tubular Bag: Innovation for transport: tubular backpack that allows you to insert/remove the wing without disassembling the handle – always carry it ready to fly.
• Fly Family DNA: Evolution inherited from the Fly and Fly II models: the Pro represents the state of the NP art in terms of development, materials and wave/freestyle philosophy.
