2025 Naish Pivot LE Light Wind Edition

The Pivot LW 17m is bridging the gap between light winds and higher performance riding. With great control and a bigger wind range, the Pivot LW has the same characteristics as a smaller Pivot, yet provides a solid foundation for bigger jumps, better relaunch and high-performance freeride in light wind conditions from 8-15 knots. If you compare it to the Boxer, the Pivot LW 17m flies further forward in the window, has more depower and better jumping ability. A great option for schools due to its light wind abilities and for those seeking higher performance in marginal conditions. 


Profile Lock Seam
Holds the position of the draft in place and keeps it more rigid over time.

TLS 400 Bridle Lines
Resulting in a more aerodynamic flight, lighter weight and easier relaunch.

Load Seam to Each Strut

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 kites profile exactly how it was designed. Quad-tex is the highest quality canopy available on the market.

 


Our 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. Our canopies are made out of Teijin Quadtex, 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.

Quadtex 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. Quadtex is the highest quality canopy available on the market, and also available at an affordable price. We utilize our new High Tensile thread in our stitching process, which is of the highest marine grade to make sure our seams are strong, safe and secure. Our stitching methods have also been refined over many years of working with our factory, and the experience we have access to has resulted in kites with the lowest failure rates on the market.

Our PU bladders are the perfect balance of weight and durability. We have tested many different bladders over the years, and what we 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, we can safely use the highest PSI inflation pressures to give our kites a precise and responsive feeling.

Naish valves are made out of two components. Before we mount the valve into our bladders, 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 by our quality control team. Our 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 we 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 we are proud to say that every product from Naish meets our high standards. From the ideation phase, to the design process and all the way to the last step of production, we take care to make sure that we provide our loyal customers with the highest quality and safest product available, so that all you have to worry about is having a good time!

Light Wind Riding – What to Choose: Pivot 17m LW Vs. Boxer

Light wind riding is an art of finesse, patience, and knowing exactly how to harness every breath of air. When the wind is barely there, the right kite can mean the difference between a dreamy session and a frustrating battle against gravity. Enter two contenders in the light-wind arena: the Pivot 17m LW and the Boxer. Both are engineered to keep you flying in minimal wind, but each brings a distinct personality to the water. So, how do you choose?

What Matters in Light Wind Kites?

Before diving into the specifics, let’s break down the essentials when picking a light wind kite:

  • Power-to-weight ratio – How efficiently does the kite generate power in minimal wind?
  • Turning speed & handling – Is it quick to respond, or does it feel like steering a yacht?
  • Upwind ability – Can it get you back to shore, or on an upwind reach without a struggle?
  • Stability in light moments – How well does it stay in the sky when the wind drops?
  • Relaunch capability – Because nothing's worse than a waterlogged kite in 8 knots. 

With these factors in mind, let’s see how the Pivot 17m LW and Boxer stack up.

Pivot 17m LW: Power & Smooth Handling

If you want power in a refined yet accessible package, the Pivot 17m LW is your pick. This kite’s DNA is all about controlled, efficient performance that drives through the sky rather than relying purely on sheet-in-and-go power. Its mid-high aspect ratio design creates excellent apparent wind, generating lift and pull with speed — perfect for maximizing light wind sessions.

Why the Pivot 17m LW stands out in light wind:

  • Big, smooth power delivery – Generates steady, controlled pull with the ability to accelerate forward due to its profile and aspect ratio, for better upwind performance and vertical lift.

  • Fast flying speed – While it doesn’t turn as fast as a Boxer, it flies exceptionally fast, making it feel quick and responsive for its size.

  • Boosting potential – Light wind doesn’t mean low altitude; the Pivot’s efficient profile delivers solid lift, even in 10 knots.

  • Great upwind drive – Its refined profile and higher aspect ratio help it cut upwind efficiently.

  • Relaunch reliability – The shape and leading edge design allow for an easier relaunch compared to other large kites.

  • Huge wind range - Has a higher top-end meter for meter than the Boxer, giving it more versatility.

Where the Pivot 17m LW has limits:

  • Bigger frame = slightly slower turning – Compared to a single-strut design like the Boxer, it won’t pivot (pun intended) quite as fast.

  • More physical input required – Some riders may find it slightly more demanding to keep it flying at its peak compared to the Boxer.

The Pivot 17m LW is ideal for riders who want to extract every ounce of performance from light winds. If you’re about freeride cruising, boosting, and getting the most efficiency out of your session, this is your match.

Boxer: Featherweight Efficiency

If the Pivot is the powerhouse, the Boxer is the ultra-efficient strategist. This single-strut design prioritizes drift, responsiveness, and low-end performance, making it the go-to for foilers, strapless riders, and anyone who wants a playful, light-wind machine.

Why the Boxer excels in light wind:

  • Unmatched weight-to-power ratio – The Boxer is lighter than the Pivot, making it incredibly effective in marginal wind.

  • Fast, reactive turning – Without extra struts adding weight, the Boxer turns on a dime, making it an excellent choice for foilers and strapless riders. It also turns faster due to the lower aspect ratio.

  • Superior drift – The luff strut design allows the canopy to expand and catch more wind, keeping it flying in light moments, similar to a spinnaker on a sailboat.

  • Soft, consistent pull – Has a large depower range, offering smooth power delivery in gusty conditions.

  • Effortless handling – The light build and reduced bar pressure make it easy to maneuver, especially for foilers and strapless riders.

Where the Boxer has limits:

  • Not as much drive at speed as the Pivot – While it delivers plenty of power, the Pivot generates more apparent wind and usable power.

  • Jumping requires more rider input – Unlike the Pivot’s automatic takeoff, the Boxer requires stronger edging and technique to generate height.

The Boxer is ideal for riders who prioritize sheet-in-and-go power, quick handling, and driftability. If your light wind sessions involve foiling, wave-riding, or playful freeride cruising, the Boxer is the way to go.

Light Wind, Your Way – Make the Right Call

If you’re after power, smooth handling, and a kite that will boost in the lightest breeze, go for the Pivot 17m LW. It’s the go-to choice for twin-tip riders and those who want a reliable, freeride-friendly kite with excellent upwind ability and relaunch.

But if you’re looking for an ultra-light kite that turns fast, drifts effortlessly, and thrives in low wind conditions, the Boxer is your perfect match.

Some riders let light wind keep them on the shore. Others find a way to ride. The question is — who do you want to be? Still undecided? Ride them both, feel the difference, and never let the wind decide for you. The session of a lifetime is waiting — grab your kite and own it.
