NOBILE KITEBOARDING 2019

WE ARE EXPERTS. WE KNOW HOW. Our environment and business is continuously changing, while kiteboarding evolves. But all the while here at Nobile, our values remain the same. Every day we design and manufacture equipment in line with our ‘Human Concept’ philosophy, bearing the final user in mind, in order to make top-quality, best-performance, and – most importantly – comfortable, safe and user-friendly gear. While our corporate values remain unchanged, our technological solutions are continuously improved upon. And we know how to do it, because we have the experience in manufacturing boards with wood cores since 1994, and within kiteboarding for 15 years. All our boards are produced in-house, in our European factory.

NOBILE IS COSMIC W H AT I N T R I G U E S U S I N T H E E I G H T I E S

Since 2003, when Nobile produced the first technology-based sandwich kiteboard using a wood core, the kiteboarding world has changed dramatically, while we here at Nobile have been continuously improving this technology, and have become experts in it.

I S A S U R P R I S I N G D E C O R AT I V E N E S S A N D

The sandwich technology, using wood among other components, allows our engineers to design the board to flex freely.

TECHNOLOGY

NOBILE HUMAN CONCEPT PHILOSOPHY Right from the very beginning, the idea behind all of Nobile’s innovations was termed the ‘ H U M A N C O N C E P T ’ philosophy. The point of this philosophy is to understand that it is the human who is the most important part of the system, because even the best equipment is not able to function by itself. It is the rider who connects all the elements of kitesurfing. In practice, it means that to develop the best equipment we have to analyze and understand the natural advantages and limitations of the human body and mind, and build the gear around them. It’s as equally important as the external aspects of the environment in which the equipment will be used: wind and water. It takes scientific knowledge from various disciplines to develop the best performing and truly ‘rider-friendly’ gear. In short, since the very

NOBILE SPLIT

beginning, performance and safety have been the key issues for us. We never wanted to just produce the kiteboarding equipment, we wanted it to be the best product on the market; the product that sets the

CONNECTION

standards in terms of safety, performance and comfort, and helps to popularize kiteboarding as a sport. We believe that safety on the water and the joy of kitesurfing are the most important points, and that’s why most of our innovations were never patented or legally reserved exclusively for Nobile, and thanks to this they’ve already become industry-wide standards. It’s worth mentioning that, after developing the first kiteboards to utilize snowboard technology and the first fully molded safety system (Fulcrum), we introduced the E L L I P T I C A L P R O G R E S S I V E C O N C A V E ( E P C ) that combines the advantages of both a flat-bottomed board and concave, and provides very early planing; the D Y N A M I C

NSC – NOBILE SPLIT CONNECTION EVOLUTION

A S Y M M E T R I C A L O U T L I N E , because we realized the heel-side edge of the kiteboard should work differently than the toe-side edge; and the H Y D R O D Y N A M I C R O C K E R L I N E to optimize the water drag (reflected in control over the board and your riding speed). And finally the C O M P L E T E A N T I V I B R A T I O N ( C A V ) tech, engineered to provide a faster and more comfortable ride. Constant research on the best flex and torsion lead us to invent A D D E D P R E - S T R E S S T E C H N O L O G Y ( A P S ) and 3 D M U L T I C H A N N E L C O N S T R U C T I O N . To make kiteboarding more user-friendly we also invented a tool-free mounting system for accessories and Splitboards (the N O B I L E C L I C K & G O ).

TECHNOLOGY

APS (TECHNOLOGY ADDED PRE-STRESS) P R E - S T R E S S I N G means the intentional creation of initial tension in a structure, for the purpose of improving its strength properties. In kiteboarding, Pre-Stress allows the board to be loaded with energy during production. Storing the energy inside the board makes it a bit stiffer and far more torsion resistant, which results in astonishing pop on the water. Pre-Stress technology also allows us to build thinner and lighter boards which are actually more durable. W H Y A P S ? We tested two boards of an identical shape, size and bottom shape. One of the boards was equipped with the APS system, while the second board’s construction was based on a milled core and mould. W H AT D O W E G E T ? APS improves torsion by 35%, which translates into: - Better pop - Better upwind performance - Great rocker-line grip Thanks to the energy stored in the board structure, APS gives you: - Better pop - Better responsiveness APS improves durability by 10%, owing to which: - The board is lighter - The board is thinner, yet with the same durability - The construction materials (including wood) are less prone to wear

NOBILE CLICK&GO TOOL-FREE SYSTEM The Nobile C L I C K & G O S Y S T E M is produced as a standard tool-free mount. It takes just a few seconds to mount/dismount your fins, pads and handle with just your bare hands, meaning a clunky screwdriver is no longer necessary. We redesigned the mounting system to provide a stronger connection between the accessories and the board; it’s also easier and faster to mount and demount them. PRODUCTS EQUIPPED WITH THIS SYSTEM:

Kiteboards IFS: PRO, GEN2 Grab Handle Fins

ADVANCED FLEX ENGINEERING We achieve a unique flex and stiffness effect, right where it’s required on the board, without any impact or consequence when it comes to the remaining part of the board and its features. In addition to that, the APS system improves torsion by 35% and product durability by 10%. Furthermore, we use less components and the boards are significantly lighter. This kind of development is based on over 20 years of experience, continuous testing, and consultations with top riders and kiteboarding enthusiasts.

ADVANCED FLEX ENGEENERING: AFE With our specialist knowledge, we can design and control flex in all directions: lengthwise, transversally and within the torsion. We are able to achieve any given rigidity and flex in the part of the board where it is required the most, without any impact or consequence when it comes to remaining integral to the board and its flex features.

The pad base made of solid plastic has 4 installation holes which allow to change the angle of attaching them to the board, according to user preferences.

NOBILE CLICK&GO GRAB HANDLE

CLICK & GO ACCESSORIES

The Nobile Grab Handle has a completely new shape. It is smaller and more handfitted. Especially for our customers we have implemented a new material which guarantees durability and resistance to water absorbing. The handle still keeps its softness and flexibility in the case of accidental hit, so you don’t have to be afraid of injury. The most important thing is that the new handle is lighter and more comfortable in use. 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.

KITES

The Nobile T5 Kite is simply one of the best kites on the market. The idea was to design a stable, durable kite which ensures full control in all weather conditions. It is used by everyone from experienced kiters through to kiting schools. You can always count on it. It is great in any conditions and is a favourite for fans of wave riding, where the steering simplicity and the kite’s stability matter. This year we have introduced additional reinforcements and a new canopy material – Double Ripstop Teijin, which has been tested in the most difficult conditions. It is super-durable and resistant to mechanical damage, as well as climactic conditions, such as salt water, high temperature and sand. This kite will serve you for many years.

It will do anything you want in the blink of an eye and is used by all Nobile pro-riders. We have combined the advantages of C-shape kites with complete, stiff bridling, thus getting the best features of both types of kite. The 50/Fifty quickly generates huge power that remains during tricks and allows you to reduce the power immediately. It is also characterized by an immediate reaction to steering and an incredibly connected feeling on the bar. It is extremely stable and easy to relaunch, and is very light which makes it fast, responsive and provides a wide wind range. The innovations here are extra reinforcements and the new material – Double Ripstop Teijin – which has been tested in the most difficult conditions. It is superdurable and resistant to mechanical damage, as well as climactic damage, such as that from salt water, high temperature and sand.

BARS 2019

NOBILE TRUST CONTROL BAR SIZE (CM): 46 (20M), 52 (23M) DESCRIPTION Nobile Trust Control Bar is made of aluminium 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 as well, 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 the ride. 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.

BARS

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 durability up to 500 kg. DEPOWER LINES Depower lines and safety line are made of super durable Spectra line and additionally secured with Teflon 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.DDB Dyneema lines Lines running to the DDB Dyneema 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 tension 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.

CLAMCLEAT DEPOWER SYSTEM The system of power regulation is based on Clamcleat type cleat. It’s simple, userfriendly, failure-free and light. It provides faster and more precise adjustment of kite power, compared to any other system. FIXING METHODS The system can be hooked to the rider in a standard way or in so-called suicide mode, preferred by more experienced kitesurfers. SWIVEL The swivel enables seamless uncoiling the front lines. LEASH The well proven Nobile solution keeps the kite hooked to the kitesurfer in case of activating the safety system and during unhooked tricks. Equipped with quick release, it allows to disarm from the kite permanently. The durability of leash construction guarantees to bear the weight up to 250 kg. COLOURS The used colour scheme – blue and orange – makes an identification easier and ensures very good bar visibility.

NOBILE COMFORTY CONTROL BAR SIZE (CM): 46 (20+3M), 52 (23M) DESCRIPTION Nobile Comforty Control Bar 2017 is the epitome of reliability, safety, simplicity, comfort and user-friendliness. It complies with the AFNOR NF S52-503 safety standard. It’s an incredibly simple to use product as well as being incredibly safe and reliable. We have also incorporated new materials which are resistant to unfavourable conditions, such as salt water, UV radiation, high temperature and sand, to maximise the life of the bar. All components have been rigorously tested to ensure their resistance to the strong forces which accompany jumps, riding and uncontrolled manoeuvres. The new Nobile Comforty Control Bar 2017 matches all Nobile kites, as well as all other 4 line kites with equal length lines. WHAT’S NEW? • Longer, more comfortable C-loop that doesn’t cause any problems with attaching to the harness hook. • New, redesigned and more user-friendly Quick Release which takes less space and shortens the distance to the bar. • Single depower line (less problems, compared to two lines) protected by polyurethane tube making it impossible to wear through. • No stopper. • Universal finish of front and steering lines • a loop with a knot which allows the Nobile bar to be attached to any kite. COMPONENTS • C-loop: extremely flexible with Spectra line protected by wear-resistant polyurethane tube. • Quick Release: extremely safe and complying with the AFNOR NF S52-503 safety standard; designed to ensure the solid grip when needed, while keeping as little space as possible. The whole patent was designed to withstand the force up to 500 kilograms. After release the kite loses all power. The system can be easily rearmed after release. • Swivel: allows to untangle the lines in case they tangle up. • Bar: aluminium arms with stainless steel in the middle • a combination which translates into steering precision and incredible strength of the bar. • Bar-ends: made of soft and tear-resistant EVA foam, which perfectly secure the ends of the bar and cause no damage if they hit you. • Depower line: single Spectra line protected by wear-resistant polyurethane tube. A reduced cross-section, compared to two-line systems, protects the line against getting stuck in the bar’s cleat. • Clamcleat • the power regulator: the Clamcleat type cleat provides precise, quick and easy power adjusting, while keeping the whole system light and uncomplicated. In addition, above the cleat there is the possibility to switch front lines to three positions marked with knots, which significantly changes the power characteristics of the kite.

LINES Dutch DDB Dyneema lines are among the most stretch-resistant lines on the market. The front lines have a breaking strain of 350 kilograms, while the steering lines, 250 kilograms, with less than a two millimetre diameter! These are covered with superdurable Teflon™ material, which is stiff, less prone to tangle, and extremely resistant to mechanical and weather damage (salt water, high temperature and sand). All lineends have both knots and loops so can be attached to kites of different brands. LEASH The proven and reliable Nobile solution ensures connection with the kite after activating the safety system and while performing unhooked tricks. The leash can also be released from the kite completely in extreme conditions. The leash breaking stain is also 250 kilograms.

AFE has been introduced into Nobile products to control every part of the board’s flex. However, we’ve divided it into three main zones: Tail, Center and Nose, as well as a three-step scale: soft, medium and hard.

SOFT FLEX

FREESTYLE

This is the most comfortable and friendly type of flex in our boards, giving you full freedom when riding and turning, and forgiving all the minor mistakes at the same time. It guarantees you unbelievable pleasure during the ride and reduces chop on the water.

MEDIUM FLEX

Created for keeping top performance of the board, while maintaining comfort during the ride. Reaction to transferred impulses is fast, so the board can be controlled easily.

SKIM FOIL

HARD FLEX

Designed for the most demanding and technical riders, ensuring immediate response, perfect control and some mega pop. Uncompromising boards, prepared perfectly for any given kitesurfing technique. In our 50/Fifty wakestyle board we have introduced Negative Flex, which is important for those who ride in boots. This is also in our three-step scale and three board zones as well.
