Nobile Kiteboarding: Saudade 2015

Page 1

“Saudade” is a word of Portuguese origin which doesn’t translate directly into any other language. It means deep emotional state of nostalgia, caused by absence of someone or something, but also a positive feeling when you experience something good you really yearn for. For Brazilians “saudade” is a positive feeling. They call it „a love that remains”. It’s a memory of emotions, experiences, places or events which brought us joy and the sense of happiness, stimulate our senses and make us want to live again. We believe that both for you and us saudade is a longing for ocean, wind, sun and beach. It works both ways, because when we sail, we miss our home, family, love and all the things close to our heart. It’s a positive yearning for the sense of freedom, happiness and love. The Saudade collection refers to Brazil during the full bloom of its culture. To Brazil of the sixties, its modern architecture and design, as well as rich and diverse culture. This collection makes us think about hot beaches and beautiful people from the perspective of Brazilian soul. Saudade.

Ten years ago we fell in love with kiteboarding. For us every moment in the water means joy and fantastic experience. When we travel around the globe and find our products in Australia, Cape Town, San Francisco, Tarifa or Hel, we are seized with satisfaction and realize the challenges we face every day, in order to meet your expectations and remain the producer of the best equipment worldwide. This year, for the first time, we present four product lines in fantastic Saudade collection, inspired by Brazil of the sixties, when the country celebrated the biggest economic and cultural boom. We are convinced that you will love the boards of Uniao, Pro, Beleza and Separa lines. We want Nobile, apart from being the technological leader of the branch, to set new standards in design as well. Welcome to Saudade.

NOBILE HUMAN CONCEPT PHILOSOPHY „From the very beginning, the idea behind all Nobile innovations was called human concept philosophy. The point is, to understand it is the human who is the most important part of the system, because even the best equipment is not able to function alone. It is the rider who connects all elements of kitesurfing. It means, to develop the best equipment, we have to analyze and understand natural advantages and limitations of human body and mind, and built the gear around them. It’s equally important as the external aspects of the environment the equipment will be used in: wind and water. It takes scientific knowledge from various of disciplines to develop best performing and truly rider-friendly gear . In short words, since the very beginning performance and safety are the key issues for us. I never wanted just to produce the kiteboarding equipment. I want it to be the best product on the market, the product that set the standards in terms of safety, performance and comfort and helps to popularize the kiteboarding as a sport. I believe the safety on water and the joy of kitesurfing are the most important issues, that’s why most of our innovations were never patented or legally reserved for Nobile, and they already became a industrywide standards. Just to mention, after developing the first kiteboards to utilize the snowboard technology, we introduced the Elliptical Progressive Concave (EPC) that combines the advantages of both a flatbottomed board and concave, and provides very early planning, Dynamic Asymmetrical Outline, because we realized the heel side of the kiteboard should work differently than the toe side, or Hydrodynamic Rocker Line to optimize the water drag (reflects in control over the board and riding speed). Do not forget about the Complete Anti Vibration (CAV) tech engineered to provide faster and comfortable ride. Constant research on best flex and torsion, leaded us to invite the 3D Multichannel construction introduced in first NHP and 50/Fifty kiteboards. This solution began a new standard in boards performance. Improved comfort on landings, explosive POP, better response and improved edge grip began the standard features for all models equipped with 3D Construction”.

It is a supreme light wind creation and is lively and responsive, and truly surprises with the kind of performance and comfort you would not expect from a board of its size.

The T5 has the performance ability to keep up with your riding level as you progress and features our finest technologies, including: Pre-Stress, Honeycomb Core and Dynamic Asymmetrical Shape. This pays off with great upwind performance, early planning, nice POP and extraordinary durability.

DESCRIPTION

DESCRIPTION

Strapped or strapless, from small to well overhead wave, the Infinity is a perfect tool to enjoy surfing with a kite. The board is easy to ride and offers full control and confidence on both smaller and bigger waves. It is lightweight and lively with a generous amount of flex and response. The Infinity has a tip-to-tail wood core with Pre-Stress technology, and is covered with a foam deck for grip and maximum manoeuvrability. The thin nose of the board makes it immune to gusts and improves the stability, and the overall construction makes the board super durable and light. Infinity is equipped with FCS mounting system and fins. If you want to rip in the surf, then you want the Infinity.

Beleza NHP is the board of choice for female riders looking for an exceptional big air freestyle machine. In 2015 collection the board has a fresh outline which makes it even more comfortable and creates maximum response. This board features all the attributes of the men’s version, but re-engineered to meet female specific needs. So there is still massive POP, limitless grip, impressive speed, perfect landings and smooth control, but also acknowledges that men and women have different physiques and styles, which results in female oriented flex and stance options. NHP Beleza is highly recommended by 2013 Polish Freestyle Champion and World top rider – Katarzyna Lange (Nobile Global Pro Team).

DESCRIPTION

DESCRIPTION

The Splitboards are dedicated to travellers, freeriders and drifters! Nobile’s unique W-Connection system allows to split the board in just few seconds and pack it into standard travel bag together with the rest of clothing to save the cost of oversize luggage. This board fit even into your car trunk without using up all the space. The system provides strong connection and offers premium durability without changing the performance of the board.

The NHP Snowkite is a board dedicated to be used in the snow with a kite. It’s not just a regular snowboard with a kiteboarding brand logo. When designing this model, we used all our experience and passion to develop the best performing board on the market, whether for snow or ice. You’re looking at massive pop, a versatile flex pattern and unique 20-meters progressive sidecut radius. This is the weapon of choice for all snowkiters.

The Flying Carpet Carbon Split is a top-quality light weight exclusive product with unique unconventional design and all features of the Flying Carpet Split model. This board is a supreme light wind creation, lively and responsive, and truly surprises with the kind of performance and comfort you would not expect from a board of its size.

Our unique construction results in an insanely comfortable ride without being forced to upwind all the time, while the Nobile Snowkite provides extraordinary grip, both on toe and heel-side edge, allowing you to hold more speed, especially when going upwind. Our patented Snake Transition offers tons of control and response, even on icy and hardpack conditions, while still maintaining a fun flex. This board is also justas happy being used as a regular snowboard for those days when the wind isn’t playing ball.

We have given our „split” boards line the name of Separa, which means “separation”. The leitmotif is the sun – and moon in case of carbon boards – which reflects in sea waves.

DESCRIPTION

The Infinity Carbon Split is a top-quality light weight exclusive product with unique unconventional design and all features of the Infinity Split model. This is the only wave board that you will need in your quiver. Excess baggage fees on surfboards can be extortionate and there is no pretending that a surfboard is a set of golf clubs. With the Infinity Split your problems are solved. Our unique Nobile W-Connection (Pending Patent No P403352) means that your board can be divided in two and – amazingly – slotted in to your regular luggage. On water, strapped or strapless, from small to well overhead wave, the Infinity is a perfect tool to enjoy surfing with a kite. The board is easy to ride and offers full control and confidence on both smaller and bigger waves. It is lightweight and lively with a generous amount of flex and response. The Infinity has a tip-to-tail wood core with Pre-Stress technology, and is covered with a foam deck for grip and maximum manoeuvrability. The thin nose of the board make it immune to gusts and improves the stability, while the overall construction makes the board super durable and light. Infinity is equipped with FCS mounting system and fins. If you want to rip in the surf, then you want the Infinity.

Yes, this is the world’s best race snowkite board – the winner of the ISPO 2014 Award. Ultimate racing machine designed and developed solely to conquer this unique discipline. Tested in the wildest areas of Utah (USA) and Siberia (Russia).

The Nobile Separa Infinity board in W-Connection (Split) technology is recommended for riding strapless. We kindly inform you that the straps assembly is tantamount to the loss of board’s warranty, while riding, performing evolutions and jumping with straps are the responsibility and the risk of the owner.

CLICK’N’GO FIN SYSTEM STAY THE COURSE

Nobile fins are produced in „Click&Go” tool-free mounting standard. It takes just a few seconds to mount/dismount fins with your bare hands. A screwdriver is no longer necessary. We redesigned the mounting system to provide a stronger connection between the fin and the board. It’s also easier and faster to mount and demount the fins.

CLICK’N’GO IFS A PERFECT MATCH

The IFS Pro is a comfortable and ergonomic connection between you and your board. To increase your safety and comfort, our footbed is equipped with shock-absorbing air chambers that reduce the impact of the stroke during landing and helps to protect your body, especially knees. The IFS Pro features a new, reinforced frame and multi-position mounting to provide superb comfort and control over the board.

T5 KITE FLY HIGH AS A KITE We designed the T5 to keep a smile on your face. Fast, truly user-friendly and responsive, plus it has autorelaunch capabilities. Is there anything more you need? This year we introduced many changes in order to bring even better performance and take a step forward in freeride-oriented kites. The reshaped construction makes the kite more predictable, with a more direct feeling, and improves the wave performance. Moreover, a huge wind range and stability in the air make this kite one of the most attractive on the market. In the new T5 we have also upgraded aerodynamic capabilities – less drag and superb upwind performance. To do so, we improved durability by using narrow canopy panels and solid reinforcements, which we know is extremely important for all you riders. The new larger valve makes pumping fast and easy. Now you will jump higher, ride safer and have lots of fun in any given conditions!

NO. 1 KITE FEEL FREE TO BEGIN THE ADVENTURE This classic 4-line kite is the perfect introduction to kiteboarding and we designed it to meet all requirements of beginners or those looking to get a taste of what it’s like to fly a kite. Our training kite – unlike others – is also designed to be used on the water, for body dragging, and for those first few tentative runs with the board. With easy and forgiving handling, direct steering, fast relaunching and an intuitive security system this is the perfect training kite. All of the crucial points of the kite, including canopy, leading edge, tips and the valves area are also reinforced by additional layers of Dacron to make it extra durable and tough. Superb stability and power customized to beginner’s needs make this a great first-timer’s kite, but it can also be used by advanced riders on those days when it is really howling.

STYLE: Freeride RIDER: Beginners SIZE (m): 3.5

Unlike many others, Nobile kiteboard grab handle is soft and flexible, so in case of crash you don’t have to worry about the injury – it is reduced to minimum. Made in highly-visible rescue orange colour the handle will help you not only to carry the board, but also to locate it when lost on the water.

CLICK’N’GO G10 FINS

Nobile G10 fins are made of stiff glass composite which guarantees high durability. This material makes the connection between fins and the board very strong, while keeping the low flexibility of the fins. This ensures the high level of control when riding. NobileG10 fins are compatible with the tool-free “Click&Go” mounting standard and can be used interchangeably with PA fins. The „ultra orange” colour of the fins is superbly visible from the distance, so losing your precious kiteboard in the water is impossible. Sizes (mm): 40, 55

CLICK’N’GO PA GF33 FINS

Nobile PA GF33 fins are made of 33% glass reinforced PA (Polyamide). Fins are made in extremely highly-visible „ultra orange” to let you know where did you drop your precious kiteboard. It features the same durability as G10 Epoxy but is much lighter. 33% glass reinforced PA fins become a standard in all Nobile boards.

WHY POLYAMIDE FINS?

1. DURABILITY Polyamide (PA) is light and very durable constructional material, used also in aerospace and machinery industry for production the parts. It is widely known for its light weight and extreme durability. Furthermore, our Polyamide fins are reinforced with fiberglass (33%). 2. WEIGHT Polyamide fins feature the same durability and wear resistance as the G10 Epoxy, but are lighter. 3. PERFORMANCE The injection molding technology, used in production of our Polyamide fins, helps to gain fully repeatable hydrodynamic profile. Such profiled shape improves the connection between the fin and the kiteboard. It reduces the water drag by 5 per cent and increases the kiteboard speed. The surface adherence of polyamide fin is 40 per cent better. It results with stronger fin-to-kiteboard connection and greater stability during the ride. 4. ECOLOGY Polyamide fins are made in EU with fully recyclable materials.

NOBILE CONTROL BAR

The control bar is made of glass-carbon composite which ensures the construction lightness, as well as high durability and stiffness. Thanks to that, steering the kite is more precise. The central part of the bar is made of aluminium, which makes it extremely durable and wear through resistant, while light at the same time. The bar arms are wrapped up with a soft EVA foam. The foam surface is perforated and has hollows for fingers to provide a confident bar grip and high comfort during ride.

MR. BIG KITE RIDE WITH NO LIMITS We would like to introduce a new machine in kite range. It is called Mr. Big. When others are building sand castles, you will be ripping on the water! This kite has a huge surface with a flat shape generating real power. Six strut construction ensures stability and keeps the kite in profile in the air. Upwind capabilities give you the feeling of being stuck at the window ’s edge – which is valuable when you join the race. The manoeuverability of this kite is a pleasure and the feeling of the bar is very precise with perfect handling. Our new large valve helps you with pumping this jumbo. If you really want an everyday kite, you need this stuff!

STYLE: Freeride RIDERS: All Riders SIZE (m): 17

BAR ENDS Soft control bar ends, made of injected EVA foam provide high comfort and safety in case of accidental hit. Thanks to integrated floaters the bar stays on water without any problems. QUICK RELEASE SAFETY SYSTEM Proven, the best system on the market, worked out by Nobile, gives 100 per cent safety during the ride. Ergonomic shape allows secure grip, when necessary. The permanent release force is independent of kite thrust force – it complies with the AFNOR NF S52-503 standard. Properly fitted cleats enable unrestricted movement of the bar with quick release along the safety line. After activation the system guarantees 100 per cent loss of kite power. The released system can be easily disassembled and put together in any situation outside or inside the water. The proper design ensures construction strength up to 500 kG. DEPOWER LINES Depower lines and safety line are made of super durable Spectra line and additionally secured with Nylon coating. Thanks to that, lines do not wear through during use and easily slip through the whole in the bar. Carefully selected lines length ensures 100 per cent kite depowering. DDBT LINES DDBT lines running to the kite, made in the Netherlands, are the best and the most durable professional lines available on the market. Durability of front lines amounts up to 350 kG, and steering lines up to 250 kG at the diameter less than 2 mm. Thanks to initial pre stretch they are characterized by high stretch resistance. Lines are Teflon coated, which makes them stiff, they do not tangle and are resistant to the influence of seawater and sand.
