Looks to have adopted some Mode Pro design. Radial panels, skinny horizontal windows, some blue stripey bits, and a shorter boom to fit the 2.9m.

Its decent.I had wing with the handles too far backward as well forward for my liking and with the shiftlock you can set it up to your liking. When installed the system is rocksolid. I have no clue what it does on the weight compared to other interchangable systems like Gong/duotone/Vayu etc.
I demoed the Nova2024 5m and liked the balcened feel, but it also FELT quite heavy and grunty. It felt bigger and more grunty as my Dlab5.5 from 2022. If they could give it a lighter feel it would be a very good wing imo.
Hey Jeroen
Yeah I heard it was heavy last year..await some report on this version to see. New flux also coming soon?
No clue! I had 3+4+5 2025 Duotones Units/SLS, they didnt suit me so I got me a 4+5m Vayu Aura3 wing as replacement and pre-ordered a 3 that wil arrive in march.
Looks like a very well build wing, complete package and decent priced. As always...new gear means no wind and no waves for the next week
North Nova pro 25, already for sale here in NL according to a few websites?. But nothing on the official North site yet.
Wing looks great. Still very happy with my '24 Nova pro's. Been testing a couple of different wings last season, and yet they felt a little lighter in the hands, i still prefer the nova. Shiftlock is great, and the size and feeling of the boom or handles is great. I like the power and grunt for jumping and freestyle.
Also the regular Nova gets an update.
I see the Mid-Length is for sale on those pages as well. Waiting for the North site to give us the details of changes to the Nova Pro. I see the track system is shorter which makes sense to me. Stoked about the pistol grip front handle option.

Lighter and more precise handling The tip-to-tip span is slightly reduced. The centre part of the leading edge has less sweep and we've reduced the radius toward the tips, bringing the wingtips further forward. This moves the centre of lift forward, giving the wing more positive lift and stability. The lift pulls you forward and up during tacks and manoeuvres so that you can glide through turns and perform jumps and tricks with ease.

Apparently the Nova comes with a fixed carbon boom. No ShiftLock. No choice of handles.
4.2 - 7.m have the GripLock Carbon 11 Boom
2.2 - 3.5m have the GripLock Carbon 95 Boom
Fixed boom is my preference, I'm not interested in systems that milk the customer for extra money and add complexity I don't need. Pity they don't offer the fixed boom with the Pro
