NORTHWHO Chi è Northwave lo raccontano terra e asfalto, una storia scritta da migliaia di chilometri percorsi in 20 anni di infinita passione. Una continua corsa per migliorarsi, in fuga verso un nuovo obiettivo da raggiungere dietro la prossima curva. Una volata a tutta velocità verso il futuro, in costante crescita, sempre on the road, sempre accanto ai nostri rider, inseparabili ed esigenti compagni di viaggio. In sella insieme a loro per sostenerli in ogni sfida, sotto il sole e le nuvole, nel vento e nella pioggia, per spostare ancora più avanti il traguardo dell’eccellenza: innovando i prodotti per pedalare ancora più leggeri e liberi di respirare con tutto il corpo. E con tutto il corpo provare la gioia della conquista tecnologica e del gesto eroico. Per questo quando ci chiedono chi è Northwave, noi lasciamo rispondere i nostri riders. Ascoltateli: a parlare saranno la fatica, l’eroismo, la tecnica e il cuore di chi come noi pedala per respirare e sente il ciclismo scorrere nelle vene. _ Who Northwave actually is, has been set by road and ground, a story written from thousands of kilometers travelled in 20 years of endless passion. A continuous run to ameliorate, fleeing towards a new goal to reach around the next bend. A sprint at full speed towards the future, constantly growing, always on the road, always close to our riders, inseparable and demanding traveling companions. Together in the saddle to support them in their challenges, under the sun and the clouds, in the wind and rain, to move even further ahead the finish line of excellence: innovating products to ride even lighter, free to breathe with your whole body. And with the entire body feel the joy of technological achievement and heroic gesture. This is why, when they ask us who is Northwave, we let answer our riders. Listen to them: to speak will be fatigue, the heroism, the technique and the hearts of those of us who ride to breathe, and feel the cycling flow in the veins.

INTERVIEW


If Extreme was a challenge to be overcome for you, what would it be? Well, thinking that Extreme is something that you can touch it’s not correct! When I think about extreme, I mean looking more into myself, to improve every year. I have to find my limits, my “inside extremes”! And you know, it is much harder than going for big jumps, steep climbs or “extreme” downhills”. What are the characteristics of Extreme you love the most? I love the Extreme shoes because they’re a mix of all the things that a rider needs: light, stiff sole, simple but functional cover, good grip and simple closing systems. And of course a touch of Italian style with colors! How do you see the world Northwave? It’s a fresh world, made of dynamic people that capture their passions for cycling and put them in cycling products! And the best is that you can see that LOVE in each product from a shoe to a pair of sunglasses going through socks, clothing, all for cycling users. What is your dream for this 2013? Jajajj dream! Well, many dreams are in my mind but the majority of dreams makes it better in dreams than in reality! (this so poetic ahahah!). For this season I’m going to focus in the World cup and European champs. In any case the 3 main goals for me will be the World cups stages in Germany, Italy and Andorra and the World Championships in South Africa, a race that I love!

RALPH NÄF

Ralph, how long have you been wearing Northwave? How was your choice? That’s my seventh season that I’m riding with Northwave shoes. I always liked Northwave’s products because of their innovations and functionality. What are the characteristics of Extreme Tech MTB you love the most? The lightweight and the stiffness of the shoe are the things that make the NW Extreme better than any other shoe.

José Antonio Hermida

José, how long have you been wearing Northwave? How was your choice? Woowww! Let me think... 1995-1996-1997 then I had a break and came back to Northwave in 2004 until now! So this means 13 years Why did I chose Northwave? Well, as a junior I saw NW as the best company with the best image: a new, fresh, and pure MTB brand. This is why I signed with NW early in my career. They supported me from the beginning. After that I had always some kind of debt because NW was among the first to support me as a young rider. Right now I keep going with NW because of many reasons: innovation, performance and weight. But the main reason is that I feel like being at HOME with NW.

Northwave nel 2013 è sponsor ufficiale del Team Vacansoleil-DCM. Una sponsorizzazione importante per l’azienda, che si distingue nuovamente scegliendo uno dei migliori team al mondo: che per il terzo anno consecutivo, si riconferma squadra ufficiale World Tour, dopo aver incontrato i requisiti di risultati, etici, amministrativi e finanziari richiesti per ottenere l’importante licenza. Il team olandese ha cambiato quasi un quarto della sua line-up e tra i nuovi volti vedremo Juan Antonio Flecha a guidare la Vacansoleil-DCM nelle Classiche di primavera, mentre per i grandi Giri la squadra è stata rinforzata con José Rujano, Wesley Kreder, Danny Van Poppel e Willem Wauters. Inoltre, tra gli atleti principali dalla Vacansoleil-DCM, il 2013 vedrà protagonisti Thomas De Gendt, atteso alla definitiva consacrazione, Wout Poels, Lieuwe Westra, Marco Marcato e Bjorn Leukemans, nomi già familiari per Northwave che aveva accordi con gli ultimi tre atleti già dallo scorso anno. Il team indosserà il modello Extreme in una personale colorazione, proposta appositamente per la squadra.

interview Ciao Marco, da quanti anni indossi Northwave? Come è nata la tua scelta?

Ciao Marco, how many years have you been wearing Northwave for? What was your choice?

"Ciao a tutti! Indosso Northwave dal 2011, ho scelto le Extreme perché avevano un design particolare e per la comodità e rigidezza della suola."

TEAM

VACANSOLEIL DCM

For 2013 Northwave is the official sponsor of Team Vacansoleil-DCM. A very important sponsorship for the company, that stands out once again by selecting one of the most important world teams: for the third year in a row confirming its World Pro Tour license after meeting the results, ethics, administrative and financial requirements necessary to obtain the important license. The Dutch team changed nearly a quarter of its line-up, adding amongst others Juan Antonio Flecha to lead the team in Spring Classics, while to fight for the Big Tours, the team will rely on the addition of José Rujano, Wesley Kreder, Danny Van Poppel and Willem Wauters. Moreover, looking at the main athletes of Vacansoleil DCM, 2013 is full of expectations on Thomas De Gendt ready to make the final leap, Wout Poels, Lieuwe Westra, Marco Marcato and Bjorn Leukemans, names that sound familiar to Northwave, which already had agreements with the last three athletes in the last year. The riders will wear the Extreme shoe in a specific graphic that matches the team’s colors.

How do you see Northwave’s world?

COLOMBIA TEAM Il team, di matrice sudamericana ma stabilmente in Italia, è guidato da un nome storico nel ciclismo professionistico: Claudio Corti, che in carriera ha vinto, con i suoi atleti, ben tre Giri d’Italia. Il progetto pluriennale del Team Colombia mira a ristabilire il ciclismo colombiano come presenza costante ai vertici di questo sport. E il futuro appare luminoso per questo gruppo di giovani colombiani, quest’anno fresco di wild card per il Giro d’Italia. Il clima rigido, i nuovi regimi alimentari e il ritmo forsennato dei più importanti eventi di inizio stagione hanno immediatamente testato la tempra di questo gruppo di ragazzi, a cui va il merito di aver proseguito con costanza nel loro lavoro, fiduciosi nel percorso disegnato per loro da Claudio Corti e i suoi direttori sportivi.

012

La squadra ha già collezionato diverse vittorie nel 2012 e non smetterà di accumularne altre duranteil 2013 con ai piedi le Extreme Tech ed Extreme di Northwave. Occhi puntati in particolare sui 3 capitani della squadra: Fabio Duarte, vincitore del Mondiale Under 23 di Varese, Esteban Chaves e Darwin Atapuma, vittorioso nella tappa del Pordoi al Giro del Trentino. Oggi il Team Colombia può vantare un seguito di fan incredibilmente variegato, che ne segue le gesta da tutti i cinque continenti: utenti di ben 120 Paesi hanno visitato le pagine del sito ufficiale dal momento della sua creazione. Un progetto partito dal Sudamerica, approdato in Italia, ma che guarda e parla, al mondo intero.

The Colombian team, but based in Italy, is led by a historical name of professional cycling, the team manager Claudio Corti, who won in his career with his athletes three Giro d’Italia. Team Colombia’s multi-year project aims to restore the Colombian cycling as a constant presence at the top of this sport, and the future seems bright for this new wave of young Colombian talents, fresh off a wildcard for the Pink Race. The harsh climate, new diets and the frenetic pace that characterizes the most important events of the beginning of the season immediately tested the mettle of this group of young Colombians, which has the merit of having continued steadfastly in their work, confident in the path designed by Claudio Corti and his athletic directors.

The team has already collected several wins in 2012 and will not stop accumulating during 2013, with the Northwave Extreme and Extreme Tech shoes at their feet. Eyes focused especially on the three captains of the team: Fabio Duarte, winner of World Championship Under 23 in Varese, Darwin Atapuma, victorious in the Pordoi stage of the Giro del Trentino and Esteban Chaves. Today Team Colombia can boast a fan base incredibly diverse, from all the five continents: users of 120 countries visited the official website since its creation.

Nine athletes of Pro Tour team Orica Greenedge will wear Extreme and Extreme Tech in all major world competitions during the entire 2013 season.

Il più titolato è senza dubbio l’australiano Matthew Goss, uno sprinter potente che arriva dalla pista e che in carriera vanta vittorie prestigiose al Giro d’Italia, alla Tirreno-Adriatico e, soprattutto, alla classicissima Milano-San Remo. Goss ha cominciato la stagione con podi importanti, cercando la migliore condizione in vista dei grandi appuntamenti stagionali.

The most successful rider is the australian Matthew Goss, powerful sprinter grown up as a track cyclist, who in his career obtained prestigious victories in the Giro d’Italia, Tirreno-Adriatico and above all the classic “Milan-San Remo.” Goss started the year with important podiums, looking to achieve the best form for the big seasonal races.

Da non sottovalutare il cronoman e Campione Nazionale Canadese Svein Tuft, mentre Allan Davis e Brett Lancaster sono da anni i portabandiera Australiani nel Mondo. Lancaster, in particolare nell’ultimo anno, è l’ultimo uomo di Matthew Goss nelle volate, ma vanta titoli e vittorie anche in pista e nei prologhi. Completano la lista, l’ex campione lituano Tomas Vaiktus, Mitchell Docker, Leigh Howard, Jens Mouris e lo scalatore olandese Pieter Weening.

Not to underestimate the time trialist and Canadian national champion Svein Tuft, while Allan Davis and Brett Lancaster are longtime aussie’s standard-bearers. Lancaster in particular, assumed the role of Matthew Goss’ last man in the sprints, but at the same can boast titles and victories on the track and in the prologues. Complete the list, the former Lithuanian champion Tomas Vaiktus, Mitchell Docker, Leigh Howard, Jens Mouris and the climber Pieter Weening.

An der Oberhand fehlt zwar die Schutzfunktion, dafür ist der Handschuh gut belüftet. Recht dicke Gel-Polster an der Innenhand.” “The palm of Northwave’s glove is feels literally glued to the handlebar. The fitting and the usability of the Velcro are absolutely brilliant. There is no protection on the upper hand but that gives the glove good ventilation. Thick Gel Pads on the palm.”

“An unconventional shirt, almost too nice to wear under the jersey with its skeleton design. The shirt has a long cut and is made from a very comfortable fabric with a cotton touch. It is slightly thicker to make it perfect for both spring and autumn.”

“At first glance, you would not expect the “Tour” to be in this inexpensive price class. An expressive design and rich equipment make it look more expensive. The big lenses protect at higher speeds. A good product and a good choice for normal and wider faces.”

Overall, they’re a great shoe.”

BioMap by Northwave non rappresenta solo una filosofia di costruzione è il cuore pulsante dei prodotti Northwave, che grazie ad attente ricerche in campo biomeccanico, sono stati studiati e sviluppati per offrire il massimo delle performance ai ciclisti di tutto il mondo. La biomeccanica è la scienza che applica i principi della meccanica allo studio del movimento e dell’equilibrio umano. Le prime apparizioni specifiche in ambito sportivo risalgono agli anni ’50 ed erano rivolte a migliorare la programmazione e le tecniche degli allenamenti relativi alle discipline olimpiche. Applicata al ciclismo, uno sport che viene praticato per molte ore di seguito, è mirata a consentire all’atleta di esprimere totalmente la massima potenza muscolare di cui dispone migliorandone il rendimento, ossia il rapporto tra sforzo energetico e le resistenze che devono essere vinte. In altre parole, le analisi biomeccaniche sono finalizzate a costruire un rapporto vincente tra l’uomo ed i mezzi tecnici, superando i propri limiti. Ed evitando al contempo pericolosi sovraccarichi sulle strutture muscolo-scheletriche e articolari. I prodotti BioMap di Northwave sono sviluppati mettendo a frutto i test biomeccanici eseguiti sui nostri campioni pluri-medagliati, così da lavorare in sinergia al movimento naturale del corpo durante il gesto atletico lungo tutti i punti di contatto con la bicicletta e favorire un’efficace resistenza aerodinamica all’aria. Nessun dettaglio può essere trascurato, se si vuole essere i primi a tagliare la linea del traguardo. _

ITALIAN ENGINEERING _ INTERNATIONAL PERFORMANCES

BioMap by Northwave is not just a philosophy of construction but the beating heart of Northwave products that thanks to careful research in biomechanics have been studied and engineered to provide maximum performance to cyclists from all over the world. Biomechanics is the science that applies the principles of mechanics to the study of human movement and balance. The first specifics appearances in sports date back to the '50s, aimed at improving the planning and the training techniques related to the Olympic disciplines. Applied to cycling, a sport that is practiced for many hours consecutively, it is targeted to allow the athlete to fully express the maximum muscle power at its disposal, improving the efficiency, namely the ratio between the energy strain and resistance that must be overcome. In other words, the biomechanical analysis is aimed at building a successful relationship between man and the technical means, exceeding their limits while at the same time avoiding dangerous overloading of the muscular-skeletal and joints structures. BioMap by Northwave products are developed by taking advantage of the biomechanical tests performed on our award-medalists champions, so as to work in synergy to the natural movement of the body during the athletic gesture along all the contact points with the bike and facilitate an effective aerodynamic resistance to air. No detail can be ignored if you want to be the first to cross the finish line.

Dal punto di vista biomeccanico, la funzione del piede è essenziale in quanto immagazzina la forza generata dai muscoli che viene poi trasmessa al pedale nella fase di spinta. Si tratta di forze molto elevate: si pensi alle improvvise accelerazioni o agli scatti in salita, che si ripetono in un numero elevatissimo di volte nel tempo. Un atleta che percorre 30.000 chilometri l’anno esegue circa cinque milioni, di cicli di pedalata. Ciascun elemento delle scarpe Biomap by Northwave é stato studiato per mantenere il piede nella corretta posizione durante la pedalata, trasmettendo la forza direttamente sui pedali senza dispersione di energie. Le suole presentano spessori ridotti e incrementi di rigidità calibrati perché, come dimostrato da molti rilievi scientifici, l’azione di trasferimento dell’energia meccanica dalla scarpa al pedale si concentra in una piccola zona. Di conseguenza l’area di spinta, per essere più efficace, deve essere prossima al pedale. Le tomaie riducono al minimo le cuciture e seguono anatomicamente la forma del piede, mantenendolo sempre saldo e fornendo un efficace supporto. Le aerazioni sono state posizionate strategicamente lungo la tomaia e la suola, così da lavorare come un sistema integrato concepito per fornire un flusso d’aria costante.

Il rendimento aerodinamico é strettamente correlato alla superficie contro la quale va a scontrarsi l’aria. Non solo è importante la postura in sella, ma anche il materiale tecnico indossato dall’atleta. Un capo che si adatta ergonomicamente a tutte le pieghe del corpo, vestendolo come una seconda pelle ma senza costrizioni, offre una minore resistenza aerodinamica e quindi una migliore performance. Per comprendere il ruolo che questa variabile gioca sulla prestazione finale e la sua influenza sulla capacità di produrre potenza dell’atleta, basti pensare che, pedalando a 50 Km/h, il 95% circa dell’energia viene spesa per vincere la resistenza dell’aria. Concepito per rispondere a queste esigenze, l’abbigliamento della collezione BioMap by Northwave non è un semplice oggetto da indossare, bensì un sistema progettato per far interagire costruzioni avanzate, tessuti all’avanguardia e tagli millimetrici che seguono alla perfezione il corpo dell’atleta. Maglia e pantalone sono sviluppati per agire in sinergia con i movimenti naturali del corpo durante il gesto atletico. Le cuciture sono state posizionate affinché non ci sia sfregamento durante la pedalata. L’associazione e l’integrazione di più tessuti assicura un efficace contenimento muscolare per un miglior rendimento delle masse muscolari coinvolte. La scelta di filati dall’elevata capacità traspirante favorisce un efficace espulsione dell’umidità. I fondelli di ultima generazione utilizzano combinazioni multistrato di schiume a densità differenziata, posizionati mappando le zone del corpo durante la pedalata.

ACCESSORIES

Abbiamo lavorato insieme ai nostri campioni studiandone il comportamento in corsa e condividendo le loro esperienze. Ascoltandoli ci siamo focalizzati per trovare delle soluzioni efficaci per evitare gli attriti, smorzare urti e vibrazioni ed eliminare o ridurre al minimo le cuciture. Il risultato: una migliore ventilazione, ottenuta realizzando costruzioni specifiche e una migliore efficacia degli inserti traspiranti, senza aggiungere cuciture o sovrapposizioni di materiali. Tagli ergonomici e particolari costruzioni assicurano, inoltre, un maggiore comfort senza punti di pressione o sfregamento. Gli inserti protettivi in GEL sono stati posizionati solo nelle aree sollecitate, così da non togliere sensibilità alle estremità. Tessuti innovativi e costruzioni minuziose sono così racchiuse in piccoli scrigni di tecnologia.

From the biomechanical point of view, the function of the foot is essential as it stores the force generated by muscles that is then transmitted to the pedal in the boost phase. We’re talking about very high forces: think of the sudden acceleration or uphill bursts that repeat a large number of times: an athlete who travels 30,000 km per year performs approximately five million cycles pedaling. Each element of the BioMap shoes by Northwave has been designed to keep the foot in the correct position while pedaling, transmitting the force directly on the pedals without loss of energy. The soles have reduced thickness and calibrated stiffness increases because, as shown by several scientific findings, the mechanical energy transfer action from the shoe to the pedal is concentrated in a small area. Consequently, the thrust area, to be more effective, has to be placed next to the pedal. The uppers minimize stitching and follow anatomically the shape of the foot, preventing slipping and providing an effective support. The vents have been strategically placed along the upper and the sole, so as to work as an integrated system designed to provide a constant air flow.

The aerodynamic efficiency is closely related to the surface against which the air goes to collide. Not only it is important the posture in the saddle, but also the technical material worn by the athlete. A garment that fits ergonomically the body like a second skin with no restrictions, offers a lower aerodynamic resistance and therefore better performance. To understand the role that this variable plays on the final outcome and its influence on the athlete’s power production ability, just think that when riding at 50 km / h, about the 95% of the energy is spent overcoming air resistance. Designed to meet these needs, the BioMap by Northwave clothing collection is not a simple object to wear, but a system designed to let interact advanced constructions, cutting-edge fabrics and millimeter cuts that perfectly follows the athlete's body. Jersey and pants are designed to act in synergy with the natural movements of the body during the athletic gesture. The seams have been positioned so as to avoid chafing while pedaling. The combination and integration of multiple fabrics ensures effective muscle containment for improved efficiency of the involved muscles. The choice of yarns characterized by high breathable capacity favors an effective moisture management. The latest generation pads use different combinations of foams with different densities, positioned by mapping the areas of the body involved during cycling.

We worked together with our champions by studying their behavior when racing, and shared their experiences listening to them we focused on finding effective solutions to prevent friction, dampen shock and vibrations while eliminating or at least keeping stitching to a minimum. The result: better ventilation, obtained using specific constructions that have enabled to increase the number and the effectiveness of breathable inserts without adding stitching or overlapping materials. Additionally, Ergonomic cuts and special constructions which ensure a greater level of comfort without pressure or friction points, protective inserts in GEL only in the solicited areas, so as to not remove sensitivity to the extremities. Innovative fabrics and meticulous constructions enclosed in small chests of technology.

LIGHTS ON SAFETY

Cycling keeps you healthy but only if you stay safe. Inexperience, the weather conditions on the roads, and distracted or speeding drivers represent an ever-present risk to the safety of cyclists, and cause a large number of accidents every year (10% of fatal accidents occur on urban roads). Most accidents (27%) occur between 4 pm and 8 pm when the effects of increased traffic due to commuters traveling home are combined with other factors, such as accumulated stress and poor visibility caused by fading natural light. Another factor to consider is the lack of cycle lanes and the necessary safety equipment. However none of this should dampen your passion for a healthy bike ride. This is what Northwave had in mind when it developed the “Be Visible! Be Safe!” project.

Pedalare fa bene, ma solo quando lo si fa con prudenza. L'imperizia, le condizioni meteorologiche e delle strade, oltre alla guida distratta degli automobilisti e l'eccessiva velocità, sono un rischio costante per l'incolumità dei ciclisti e causano ogni anno un elevato numero di incidenti (10% di incidenti mortali sulle strade urbane). Il picco (27%) è dalle 16 alle 20 quando si sommano gli effetti dell’aumento della circolazione dovuto agli spostamenti dal luogo di lavoro verso l’abitazione ad altri fattori, quali l’accumulo di stress e la difficoltà di percezione visiva dovuta alla riduzione della luce naturale. Inoltre occorre considerare anche la mancanza di corsie dedicate e di dotazioni di sicurezza necessarie. Tutto ciò non deve però fermare la passione per una sana pedalata. Ed è a questo che ha pensato Northwave quando ha sviluppato la linea "Be visible, be safe!"

Full carbon sole with Vibram® natural rubber = extraordinary grip on any terrain. • Massima integrazione tra suola e tomaia = minor spessore della suola. Top integration between sole and upper = reduced sole thickness. • Suola tra le più leggere nel mercato. One of the lightest soles on the market.

To avoid overheating, we extended our advanced AirFlow System technology to our whole collection. All the road soles implement large air vents, in order to create an efficient air circulation both incoming and outgoing. Micro perforations positioned along strategic points of the upper allow an effective aeration, without overlapping materials with the additional benefit of a weight reduction of the shoe.

X-Crossbow

• Leva più piccola e leggera. Lighter and smaller ratchet. • Disegno ergonomico. Ergonomic design. • Maggiore integrazione tra tomaia e leva = migliore aerodinamicità. Integration between sole and upper = better aerodynamics.

• Implementazione del’Airflow system = maggiore aerazione della suola. Airflow system implementation = better sole aeration. • Massima leggerezza. Top lightness. • Maggiore rigidità. Top stiffness.

Per evitare il surriscaldamento del piede, abbiamo esteso la nostra avanzata tecnologia Airflow System a tutta la collezione. Tutte le suole da strada implementano ampie prese d’aria, così da creare un efficace ricircolo d’aria sia in entrata che in uscita. Microforature posizionate lungo i punti strategici della tomaia permettono un efficace aerazione, senza sovrapposizione di materiali con l’ulteriore beneficio della riduzione del peso della scarpa.

• Step By Step. Step by Step. • Apertura a rilascio immediato. Immediate opening release. • Sostituibile. Replaceable. • Piccolo e leggero. Lighter and smaller.

Adaptafit

• Ammortizzazione e supporto tallonare. Better dampening and heel support. • Grip grazie alla gomma naturale. Better grip thanks to the natural rubber. • Suola EVA full body = leggera. EVA full body sole = reduced weight.

• Senza linguetta frontale = migliore confort di calzata. Tongueless construction = more comfortable fit. • Il piede è ben fasciato = migliore sostegno durante la pedalata. Enveloped foot = better support during pedalling.

NO STITCHING

TECHNOLOGY ADAPTAFIT Costruzione all’avanguardia priva di linguetta. Adaptafit avvolge il piede come un guanto in maniera omogenea, senza punti di pressione e sovrapposizioni di materiale. La rete elastica utilizzata si adatta alla perfezione a tutte le forme del piede, garantendo così sempre il massimo comfort. Avantgarde tongueless construction. Adaptafit envelops the foot like a glove, with no pressure points and overlapping material. The elastic mesh perfectly adapts to every shape of the foot, always ensuring maximum comfort.

INTEGRATED HEEL SYSTEM Le nuove costruzioni monoguscio delle tomaie hanno permesso di integrare un efficace sistema di ritenzione del tallone all’interno della struttura, senza bisogno di elementi esterni. Stessa efficacia, minor peso. The new unibody construction of the uppers allowed to integrate an efficient heel retention system inside the structure, without the need of external elements. Same efficiency, reduced weight.

042

THERMOWELDED VENTS Ampi inserti in rete sono direttamente termosaldati sulla struttura portante della tomaia. Le costruzioni monoguscio permettono di sfruttare questa particolare tecnologia che elimina le cuciture e le sovrapposizioni di materiali così da ridurre il peso e lo spessore della tomaia. Large mesh inserts have been directly thermowelded on the upper framework. The unibody construction allows us to exploit this particular technology that eliminates seams and overlaps of materials so as to reduce the weight and thickness of the upper.

JUST RIDING

REFLEX INSERTS La sicurezza del ciclista è una delle priorità di Northwave. Ecco perché sono stati inseriti alcuni punti reflex sulla maggior parte della nostra collezione di calzature, così da aumentare la visibilità in condizioni di scarsa luminosità. Soluzioni innovative integrate alla tomaia, come il logo riflettente sul tallone di Sonic e Scorpius, quasi invisibile alla luce del sole, luminosissimo quando sottoposto a sorgenti di luce artificiali. Cyclist’s safety is a top priority for Northwave. This is why we added several reflex points in most of our shoes collection, in order to increase the visibility under low light conditions. Innovative solutions, incorporated in the upper, like the reflective logo on the heel of Sonic and Scorpius, nearly invisible in sunlight, are extremely bright when subjected to artificial light sources.

Meno cuciture per avere sempre più comodità e leggerezza: più che un pensiero, è il nostro dogma. Per questo Northwave ha esteso a tutta la nuova collezione l'utilizzo di tomaie monoguscio termosaldate. Una tecnologia che offre due grandi vantaggi: - utilizzo di materiali più sottili e quindi più leggeri - eliminazione quasi totale delle cuciture. La tomaia risulta inoltre più anatomica e fasciante, così da avvolgere al meglio il piede. Grazie a questa tecnologia la tomaia è dotata di prese d'aria più ampie con conseguente miglioramente del comfort durante la pedalata. Northwave has extended to its entire new collection the use of thermowelded unibody uppers. Two main advantages are: - Use of thinner and therefore lighter materials - Almost complete stitching elimination The upper results are a more anatomical fitting, in order to better envelop the foot. Thanks to this technology the upper features larger air vents resulting in improved comfort during pedalling.

100% THERMO-WELDED TECHNOLOGY.

FREEDOM FOR YOUR FEET

NO-SLIP HEEL L’interno della tomaia nella zona del tallone è stato rivestito con uno specifico materiale grippante le cui fibre orientate in un unico verso facilitano la calzata ma al contempo bloccano il tallone, così da rendere la calzata sempre salda. The interior of the upper in the heel area has been lined with a specific gripping material whose fibers oriented in a single way facilitate the entrance but at the same time prevent the heel from slipping, providing a perfect foot hold.

Il sistema micrometrico S.L.W. 2 (Speed Lace Winch) rappresenta l’evoluzione del sistema di chiusura. Massima precisione e modularità d’uso. L’innovativa chiusura step by step, permette di stringere o allargare la calzata in pochi istanti. Il pulsante laterale offre una doppia funzionalità: premendolo offre una rilascio micrometrico mentre sollevandolo permette l’apertura completa ed immediata della scarpa. Più leggerezza e minore spessore. Il rotore è stato completamente rivisto nelle dimensioni e nel peso, risultando ora sensibilmente più leggero e sottile, mentre il rivestimento esterno soft-touch rende la presa più efficace. La forma ergonomica della base del meccanismo S.L.W. 2 segue l’anatomia del piede a tutto vantaggio del comfort. Il meccanismo S.L.W. 2 è facilmente sostituibile. I cavi utilizzati sfruttano le migliori tecnologie derivate dal mondo della vela.

The ankle strap, made with a soft and ergonomic material, thanks to its construction, always stays centered, avoiding annoying hotspots on the most sensitive areas of the foot.

ASYMMETRICAL CLOSING SYSTEM - LIGHT STRAPS La costruzione asimmetrica è un’altra novità della collezione. La strap centrale è spostata verso il centro, così da seguire l’anatomia del piede e ridurre la pressione sulla zona laterale del piede, una zona molto sensibile alle pressioni. Le strap sono state alleggerite da ogni elemento superfluo, presentando spessori ridotti e le aree centrali scaricate, mantenendo pur sempre la massima presa. The asymmetrical construction is another innovation of the collection. The central strap is moved to the center so as to follow the anatomy of the foot and reduce the pressure on the side area, because particularly sensitive. The straps have been lightened by all superfluous elements, presenting thinner thicknesses and discharged central areas, thereby maintaining maximum grip.

EXTREME TECH PLUS MTB Una scarpa così rivoluzionaria da conferire un vero e proprio vantaggio sugli avversari. Forte di uno strabiliante peso di soli 280gr, la storia dell’Mtb sarà conosciuta come prima e dopo Extreme Tech Mtb Plus.

Such a revolutionary shoe, it confers a real advantage over opponents. On the strength of an astounding weight of just 280gr, the history of MTB will be known as before and after the Extreme Tech MTB Plus.

JOSÉ ANTONIO HERMIDA

"The Extreme Tech Plus Mtb is spectacularly glove fitting and race-shoe stiff. And weighting just 280gr it oozes featherweight from every pore!"

COD. 80142001 SIZE 36-48 HALF SIZE 39,5-45,5

Ultralight Mtb è una suola interamente in carbonio ultrasottile. L'eccezionale spessore ridotto è frutto di una maggiore integrazione tra suola e tomaia, con conseguente riduzione del peso. Prima nel mercato, la suola Ultralight Mtb monta i tacchetti in gomma Vibram® per un grip senza paragoni.

Ultralight Mtb is a ultrathin full carbon sole. The exceptionally thin thickness is the result of a major integration between the sole and the upper, the consequence, weight reduction. First on the market, the Ultralight Mtb sole is built with Vibram® rubber cleats for an incomparable grip.

L'ampia protezione non pregiudica in alcun modo la ventilazione della scarpa. Ampi inserti traspiranti in rete lungo tutta la tomaia permettono un'efficace circolazione dell'aria e quindi un elevato comfort.

The increased protection does not affect the ventilation of the shoe in any way. Large breathable mesh inserts throughout the upper allow an efficient air circulation and therefore more comfort.

PERFORMANCE CUSTOM FOOTBED COD. 84143001

Durante la pedalata il piede necessita del giusto supporto per trasmettere tutta la potenza sui pedali, senza dispersioni di energia. Ogni piede però ha una conformazione diversa e per offrire il massimo sostegno, Northwave presenta un nuovo progetto di plantari. Northwave Bike Performance Custom Footbeds sono stati sviluppati sulla base di analisi biomeccaniche realizzate su atleti professionisti, così da offrire un plantare personalizzabile con specifiche soluzioni per adattarsi a tutte le tipologie di piede.

col. 80 antra-white-yellow

SPECIAL FOAM WITH ACTIVATED CHARCOAL L’efficacia del sottopiede Bike

During the pedaling the foot needs the right support to transfer all the power to the pedals, without wasting energy. However, each foot has a different shape and to provide maximum support, Northwave presents a new project of insoles. Northwave Bike Performance Custom Footbeds have been developed on the basis of biomechanical analyses performed on professional athletes, so as to provide an insole customizable with specific solutions to fit all different feet.

Performance Custom è anche legata all’utilizzo di una speciale schiuma certificata a celle aperte che rispetto ai tradizionali sottopiedi garantisce massima traspirabilità ed un eccellente assorbimento del sudore. Estremamente confortevole e dotata di elevata efficacia nello smorzare le vibrazioni, questa schiuma viene addizionata a carboni attivi che le conferiscono proprietà anti-odore ed anti-batteriche.

INTERCHANGEABLE HEEL SUPPORT FOOT SUPPORT La forma anatomica è studiata per offrire un’ergonomia più precisa in particolar modo nella zona dell’avampiede, principale area dedicata alla spinta.

The anatomical shape is designed to provide an even more accurate ergonomics especially in the forefoot area, the main area dedicated to the push to the pedals.

VENTILATION Le traforazioni del sottopiede sono posizionate strategicamente per sovrapporsi ai fori di ventilazione della maggior parte delle suole Northwave, per conferire così una miglior aerazione di tutto il piede durante la pedalata.

BIOMAP

Il plantari Northwave Bike Performance Custom, realizzato avvalendosi degli studi biomeccanici BioMap, è la risposta alle esigenze di comfort e maggior potenza sui pedali di tutti i ciclisti, anche per i professionisti, che richiedono un supportodel piede più efficace durante i duri allenamenti. The Northwave Bike Performance Custom footbed, developed through BioMap biomechanical analysis, is the answer to the needs of comfort and more power to the pedals of all cyclists, even for professionals who require a more efficient support of the foot during hard workouts.

SHOCK ABSORBING PAD Uno specifico pad shock absorbing

nella zona del tallone offre un’ulteriore protezione dagli urti a tutto vantaggio del comfort, non solo in sella. A special shock absorbing pad placed in the heel area provides additional impact protection to the benefit of comfort, not only in the saddle.

The perforations of the insole are strategically positioned to coincide with the vents of most Northwave soles, in order to provide a better aeration of the entire foot during pedaling.

CUSTOMIZED HEEL SUPPORT Ogni pianta del piede ha una propria

conformazione (regolare, cava o piatta) alla quale spesso la scarpa non riesce a rispondere in termini di una perfetta calzata e vestibilità e quindi di resa sportiva. Il nuovo plantare di Northwave si adatta a ciascuna tipologia di piede grazie al set di 3 supporti plantari iniettati intercambiabili, ciascuno realizzato con differenti mescole a diversa densità che permettono di personalizzare la calzata ed il supporto plantare per soddisfare al meglio le esigenze di ciascuno. - Verde – Mescola morbida caratterizzata da maggiore cedevolezza, maggiormente idonea ai piedi piatti - Azzurro – Mescola a sostegno intermedio, indicata per piedi regolari - Arancione – Mescola rigida per offrire il massimo supporto ai piedi cavi

086

The effectiveness of the Performance Custom Bike insole is also related to a special certified open cells foam which unlike traditional insoles ensures maximum breathability and excellent moisture absorption. Extremely comfortable and highly effective in dampening the vibrations, this foam is added with active carbons which confers anti-odor and anti-bacterial properties.

Each sole of the foot has its own conformation (regular, hollow or flat) to which the shoe is often unable to provide a perfect fit at the expense of the performance. The new Northwave footbed adapts to each type of foot thanks to the set of 3 interchangeable injected arch supports, each made with different compounds featuring different densities that allow to customize the fit and the arch support to meet the needs of every rider. - Green - Soft compound characterized by higher yielding, more suitable for flat feet - Blue – Intermediate support compound, suitable for regular feet - Orange - Rigid compound to provide maximum support to hollow feet
