Norden Surfboards, the brainchild of Angelo Schmitt & Andy Wirtz, was founded in 2002, at a time when surfing in the northern hemisphere began to really take off. As more and more people started to venture into the surf – especially around Europe - the Norden guys realized that the commonly available equipment was not designed to match the wave conditions or performance needs of this new crowd of surfers. Wanting to close that gap, these two veterans of the sport re-visited the reason why they started surfing in the first place to inform their vision for innovative board designs: the pure fun of just riding a wave. Recruiting legendary Shaper Glen D´Arcy from Jeffrey’s Bay, South Africa was key to their success. He is one in a small crowd of master-shapers who still has the skills to build surfboards from nearly all periods of surfing. Glen has
mowed foam on over 50000 surfboard and knew exactly how to help translate Andy and Angelo’s vision into exciting new board designs. These shapes were not the high performance surfboard that aimed to make people look like the latest pro on the World Tour, but a range of funboards that combined tried-and-tested old-school design with visionary ideas to enable surfers to catch waves - a lot of waves! - no matter how skilled the rider or how good the conditions. Today, more then a decade later, surfing has evolved to a higher level of performance and fun. But not only that! People today are riding waves on all kinds of equipment: traditional shortboards, new futuristic designs, mid-size single fins, malibus, longboards, skimboards, SUPs… you name it! We at Norden are stoked to see this development. It shows us that our original vision - the very reason we started Norden – hit the spot: with our growing range of boards for all conditions and performance levels, more people are catching more waves. Most importantly, they are doing so with one simple aim in mind: The pure joy of being in the surf.

STANDARD POLYESTER - PU/Polyester construction is still the main way to build a surfboard. The manner in which these boards flex and the way the foam sinks into turns is still unmatched any other construction. Most of our surfboards are still built this way. Our Standard Polyester construction is one of the best qualities on the market, using only the best PU blanks, fibreglass and polyester resin. CLASSIC TINT - The tinted surfboard design goes way back to the early sixties, when people were not able to spray designs onto boards, instead they mixed colour tints into the resin to give them a design. Today this design-technology is very rare. As these boards have to be glassed in two steps from both sides, and need to cure in between each step of the glassing, it also makes them really solid. All our alternative Retro Surfboards are available in classic tint designs. SUPER LIGHT EPOXY - Our Super Light Epoxy Line is a slightly lighter and stiffer surfboard technology. Using EPS cores in combination with epoxy glassing and wooden stringers has a livelier flex then normal PU/polyester surfboards and is way lighter and stronger. It also offers better performance when the conditions are clean. In our opinion this technology does not make sense with every shape. We have tested many of our boards with this technology and created a small line of shapes that match up perfectly with this new material. The EPS/Epoxy Line is very eco-friendly. EPS Blank are blown with hot steam based on water and Epoxy resin doesn’t create any toxic gas. EPS/ EPOXY - Our “First Ride” models are made in a strong and durable “eps/epoxy” construction with extra layers of glass, a full wood veneer deck and design applied on the outside of the board. Ideal for surf schools and rentals, as well as people who need a super durable surfboard for the whole family, that can take some serious beatings.

PIG WALE // PERFORMANCE LINE The new Pig Wale is what we call a „performance-funboard“, allowing you to have fun on the most average day, but it also enables you to perform once conditions improve. The wider nose lets you paddle into the smallest wave with ease, a very round outline and the shorter board lets you turn on a dime, while a single into double concave bottom combined with a flatter rocker and a rounded tail give you that extra speed to chase any section down the line. The pig wale caters for the experienced surfer who is looking for a board for small to medium summer surf, as well as any intermediate rider who is ready for a shorter surfboard.

RIVER RAT // PERFORMANCE LINE An increasing number of surfers are discovering the real potential of ‘river surfing’, and more and more spots are discovered around the globe. To meet your growing demand for fresh water surfing, norden has joined forces with their river surf team to design the new River Rat, the perfect board for these particular types of waves. The Rat features a flat rocker line with a bit of lift in the nose, a single concave bottom and soft rails with a higher apex point, that allows you ride faster, do harder turns and have more control then ever before. The PU core glassed with biaxial fibreglass and epoxy resin give the River Rat extra strength to survive any beating from the rocks or other obstacles in the water.

PARROT FISH // ALTERNATIVE LINE Welcome to the world of Bonzer surfing! For those who are interested in classic but innovative surfboard designs, this shape is without a doubt a ”must have”. We combined the classic 5-fin Bonzer setup and channel bottom with Retro Fish and Egg outline and shape features.

EGG // ALTERNATIVE LINE The Norden Egg is the ultimate retro classic! As one of the original ‘hybrid’ shapes, the egg design has been at the forefront of “retro surfing” trend. The benefits of the distinct roundish, fuller shape have reached enormous popularity among the surfing population. The board forms an accessible bridge for riders from both, the shortboard and longboard camps. It provides an excellent performance platform for longboarders who are keen to surf a ‘smaller’, looser board without losing ‘the glide’ of their logs. Equally, shortboarders are able to tap into the joys of single fin surfing and power carving without having to resort to heavier and longer boards. This board is one of the most versatile shapes in our line up and works equally well from knee high peelers to double overhead bombs.
23
NS-DP-GREY
DIS©PLACEMENT // ALTERNATIVE LINE This shape is specifically designed for those who like and appreciate the unique pleasure of single fin surfing. This beautiful board combines the strengths of two timeless classic surfboard designs in one shape: the Disc and the Displacement hull. A wide, but round outline enables you turn in any radius you need, and a rolled bottom plus 50/50 rails will give you that classic, but neutral feel of superior single-fin ‘glide’. Slipping and sliding down the line, this shape has been the most sought after board in the Norden range, since we brought it to the beach the first time. If your are an expert or a beginner in the single fin arena, this board is a winner.

GLOBAL PLAYER // EVOLUTION LINE The Global Player is probably norden’s most versatile longboard shape. We’ve dragged and ridden this thing EVERYWHERE – type of surf or country… this board goes anywhere! Just half a foot below the ‘longboard threshold’, this shape takes innovative, yet useful, design to its most sophisticated levels. A narrow round-pintail, tucked rails and slightly concave bottom make this board the most explosive and fastest Malibu-style shape you will ever ride. But not only this, it also works nicely with lighter riders and the females who just don’t need that much of a board to go longboarding.

PERFORMER // EVOLUTION LINE The Norden Performer is the missing link between the High Performance Comp. and the Highperformance Noserider Longboard. The Performer blends a slightly wider Nose – for easy nose-riding – with low volume in the tail and a good amount of taillift, to enhance your ability for harder turns. In addition, a flat mid-section, with a double concave to V-bottom transition towards the tail, will generate all the acceleration and speed you will ever need to really work the wave. If you are looking to tale the step into performance longboarding, this board will meet all your demands.

SOFTBOARD CONSTRUCTION Our Softboard construction is unique. 25 kg EPS cores with a double wood stringers, 2 layers of 6-ounce fibreglass top and bottom, full EVA deck, slick bottom, and soft fins might be all common design features for high quality school boards. However, at norden we are always looking to go the extra mile to improve performance and user friendliness. With this in mind, our Softboards are additionally equipped with rails that are completely foiled and shaped, just like on any normal surfboard. This feature gives a beginner a much better chance to manoeuvre the board from day one. The EVA nose- and tail-blocks are not glued onto the outside, as is common for ordinary school boards. Instead they are laminated into the construction and will never come off. These construction improvements, combined with the teaching-aid EVA colour-stripe deck design, open up a completely new way of teaching people how to surf. This makes the Norden Softboard the strongest and most advanced schooling board available on the market today.

THE Norden SURFSCHOOL SOFTBOARDS Our new range of Softboards is the most thoughtfully designed board construction method, engineered specifically to meet the demands of surf schools anywhere. The unique colour designs - aside from giving these boards a classic look – were carefully developed to visually assist the surf student to learn to ride more quickly: The black tail-area shows the rider where to park her feet while paddling. No more lying to far forward or backward on the board! Additionally, blue-coloured areas provide foot placement references for takeoff and riding. The placement of the colour marks is optimally proportioned for one-size-fits-all usage.

STAND UP PADDLE boarding to us is a great ad on to our normal surfing routine and the most fun thing that has shown up in the line up for years. Being able to access any break no matter where it’s located, will it be an outside reef, or some sandbar down the cost, which you can not get to on land, stand up surfboards will take you there. Standing on your board while waiting for the waves to come gives you a complete new view of all. You can see the sets moving in from far away, set your self in the best spot, when peaks are shifting, you will spend more time riding waves then ever before. Riding the smallest wave, that hardly gets you going on a longboard, or big sets way outside that you might not be able to paddle into, the SUP will give you the opportunity to excess it all. And that´s still not all the benefits the SUP has to offer, you can cruise flat water on lakes or at sea with no swell,, watch the sea life or go fishing, and all that simply because your are standing on a board instead of lying down. For us the SUP will not replace our regular surfing, but access in a new chance to spend more quality time on the water then ever before.

NEW Futurma 7´8 With the recent innovative changes in surf board design with boards getting shorter, wider and thicker with less rocker-offer us a whole new experience of speed and maneuverability. A combination of reduced length, with more tail surface-area, and a shift of volume from the rails to the center of the board, makes for unprecedented power and performance in a SUP. The channeled bottom that runs into a “Rounded Squash Tail” rounds off a shape that is faster then anything you have ever ridden before. Adding two rocker lines by implementing a channel - with decreased rocker in the center for more control, and more pronounced rocker along the rail for more maneuverability - is the key to this SUP shape. The new step rail allows us to ac-

Never theless the smart volume distribution towards the centre of the board makes them fairly easy to handle compared to its volume and width. If you are committed SUP surfer, who is looking for a small board without limits, the Combat is the board to choose.

PLAYBOARD 8’6’’ The Playboard is a super fun Surf SUP for experienced riders. Its flat rocker allows you to enter the wave quickly and easily, while thinned out rails give you the freedom to carve it like a regular surfboard. The board’s characteristic wing design-feature, combined with a thumb tail, give this shape a never seen top turn performance. The Playboard 8´6 works for riders up to 90 kg and some SUP-Surf experience on their backs, it is suitable for waves up to 3 m, but not recommended for flat-water paddling.

BIG DIAMOND 10´8” For anyone looking for a shape with maximum stability and that little bit of extra volume, the all-new Big Diamond is the SUP to go for. With a width of 31 ½ inches, it is unbelievably stable. However, thinned out rails will still let it carve like a surfboard, and a rolled bottom with a slight V-design in the tail let it turn with ease, even in smaller, slower surf. An additional V-bottom feature in the nose, as well as a flatter rocker line, also allows it to be paddled very comfortably in flat water. Ride it with 3 fins for more stability or simply as a classic single longboard, one thing is for sure, the Big Diamond is one of the most fun SUP boards we ever developed.

TOURING 11’0”, 12´6 The Touring is a great board for flatwater, open ocean and river SUPing. With a storage net in the nose and tail you can pack anything you need for your journey. A full EVA deck will give you great comfort while paddeling and allows you to move around on the board without loosing grip. The keel-shaped nose cuts through the water with superior speed and ease. Its flat middle section with extra width gives it great stability, and tucked-in rails maximize manoeuvrability. Additionally, when compared to a traditional raceboard, the Touring has a little bit more rocker, which enhances the board’s surfing performance by minimizing the risk of nose undercutting on swells.

FREERACE 14´ The Freerace is our more Race orientated version of the classic Touring shape. The longer nose bow, straighter rail and the flat planing bottom creates lass drag and allows the board to lift out of the water to accelerate faster. With only 27.5 to 28 inches in width and a recessed deck area it is still very stable, the open ocean rocker line makes it a great shape for down winders and allows you to catch a few waves along the shore. The Freerace has grab handles which can also be used to attach a storage net and is built only in our Ultra Light Carbon construction to give you the lightest board possible. For anyone that wants to sprint around the block, rather then taking a cruise, this is the board to go for.

DOUBLE WOOD SANDWICH CONSTRUCTION The double wood sandwich construction offers the best balance in strength, durability and light weight. We use 20 kg EPS cores on smaller Boards and 15 kg EPS cores on the bigger boards. Two T-Stringers provide the boards’ core with the right degree of strength without compromising flex. The boards are glassed with two layers of 6 & 4-ounce fibreglass cloth on the bottom + a full bamboo wood sheet and 2 layers of 2x 4-ounce fibreglass cloth , 1 layer of full bamboo wood + a ¾ bamboo patch in the standing area on the board’s top. A hard-coat spray finish protects the colour design from paddle-dings and collision with ‘other things’ you might hit in and out of the water. The Diamond Groove EVA Deck is designed to afford you superior grip and comfort on your board. SUPER LIGHT CARBON CONSTRUCTION The all new super light carbon construction is by far the lightest construction we ever offered. Using a very light eps core which will be completely vacuum-laminated with pvc and carbon sandwich, allows us to use less fibreglass and no stringer without sacrificing any durability. Additionally the boards get finished of with a super light brush coat which gives it the rustic look and saves us some extra grams by leaving the traditional spray design behind. As light is only better when the shape matches the construction, we offer the super light carbon version only on the small Wave SUPs and the Explorer Sport because this is where it really makes sense! SURF GLASS TECHNOLOGY The new surf glass technology offers a similar feel to the construction of a normal epoxy surfboard. Using a 20kg EPS core, hand laminated with 6oz fibreglass + carbon vector net top and bottom and wood veneer in the standing area make the board light, yet strong, a carbon band in the bottom controls the flex and will give the board extra strength.

THE Norden BEACHBAG, is designed to mimic a classic old-school look, manufactured with heavy duty cordura material and leather patches (don’t worry, no cow had to die for this!) A stiff steel opening frame allows you to view all your goods inside, without moving the bag around to find your gear. The wet-compartment fits 2 wetsuits, the other half stays open for your sweater and towel. Two side pockets is all you need for your phone, keys and your mp3 player.
66
On the outside you can flip down one side, which opens space for your leash, wax, fins and all your tools. On the changing mat you can get in and out of your wetsuit without taking all the sand home with you. And if you roll down to the beach, you can clamp your skate between the outside compartment.
