North introduces the Echo Pro – a high-performance kite foil crossover board. Let’s take a look…
North proudly unveils the Echo Pro, a high-performance kite foil crossover board engineered for riders who demand precision, versatility, and flow across kite, wake, tow-in, and pump foiling. Lightweight, direct, and built to release cleanly from the water, the Echo Pro sets a new benchmark for crossover foilboard performance.
“The Echo Pro just responds naturally – carving smooth lines is effortless, like the board knows where I want to go!” says team rider Francesca Maini.
Kite foiling, wake foiling, tow-in, dockstarting, pump – the Echo Pro is engineered to move fluidly between all of them. Its triplane hull design generates earlier lift and faster release, with angled planing surfaces, a low-entry rocker, and finely bevelled rails working together to deliver forgiving touchdown recovery on variable rail angles. Whatever you’re riding, wherever the water takes you, the Echo Pro is ready.
Its construction is uncompromising: a strong, light and efficient 100% carbon outer shell sits over a layer of high-density closed-cell PVC foam, which wraps the entire board for maximum strength and impact resistance. Strong, precise, and direct, the board’s low volume accelerates roll-to-ride transitions onto foil, while DropBox fast foil mounting ensures the right stance every time.
Built for Connection
Every detail of the Echo Pro is designed around the connection between rider, board, and foil. The intuitive concave deck positions your feet level with the foil for efficient pumping, greater leverage, and precise heel-to-toe roll control. The Max-Traction deck grip with tactile and visual stance reference makes foot placement fast and instinctive.
Centre and V-Strap insert options let you personalise your stance for goofy or natural riding. The DropBox 165x90mm fast foil mount is compatible with most foil systems, and comes pre fitted with corrosion-resistant Titanium screws and T-nuts. A 2.4GHz signal-optimised E-glass laminate window makes the Echo Pro Foil Drive ready out of the box.
