Performance
TOP OF THE RANGE
For 2010 you can go ahead and increase your expectations, because we at North Kiteboarding have once again pushed the limits of kiteboard construction to an entirely new level. Our completely new SELECT construction delivers an extremely lightweight board with a magical new feeling under your feet!
We are happy to introduce our unique, lightweight, Textreme® carbon construction in cooperation with Oxeon AB that hugely benefits our new-school and freeride twin tips. We have simply dubbed this construction “Select”. Widely used in aerospace, Formula One and sports applications, where critical performance requirements are crucial, Textreme® Carbon Fiber offers us approximately 20% weight savings over conventional woven carbon construction. Its ease of use allows our progressive flex pattern to be micro-adjusted for a harmonic feel, to suit the targeted rider’s desired stiffness. This process, together with our Responsive Center Flex, enables us to build a board with lively, aggressive new-school characteristics and precision response, while also offering a smooth feel and lots of comfort reserves. Go ahead…choose your Select weapon to meet your unique demands at the highest level!

FLEX TIPS
Based on a unique new construction of the board in the tip area, the scoop rocker line ensures better response to changing situations. In underpowered riding, the board remains flat for fast planing. In overpowered riding, the scoop bends and provides for an increased level of control and stability. The flex tips absorb shocks and enable soft landings.

3D PADS
The 3D footpads can be individually adjusted by using the loops’ screws according to the rider’s needs. Thus, every single board gets a unique touch and the 3D foot support in the pad will have a real effect!
