BEYOND EXPECTATIONS

Nobile Kiteboarding has always been famous for introducing innovative con-

structions and technologies into the world of our beloved sport. Since the very fi rst kite-board produced using snowboard technology (which back in the day completely revolutioni-zed kiteboard construction), we have always been the leader in the fi eld of proper fl ex

Introduced last year in the DoubleHydro-Dynamic, exclusive Pre-Stress technology is implemented into the majority of Nobile kite-boards for 2012. Now the boards feature even more spectacular POP and excellent grip combined with impressive upwind and choppy water performance, while still being easy to ride and providing you with lots of fun. Addi-tionally, the outline and shape of the boards have been changed to optimize all the bene-fi ts you get from Pres-Stress technology. The boards are not only amazingly good to ride, but with dazzling paint jobs and custom fi nishes, they are also visually delicious.

For 2012 Nobile introduces the Infi nity – a lightweight and extremely durable wave board. This model features all the advantages of a classic wave board, but thanks to it’s unique construction, it is easier to ride stra-pless and provides more fun than the tradi-tional boards.

You should also pay attention to the new version of the T5. This classic freeride board now features Pre-Stress tech as well as improved rocker line. If you’re looking for a freestyle focused all-rounder, feast your eyes on the new NHP. We’ve done what seemed to be impossible, all the features of one of the most popular hi-performance boards have been taken to the next level, making the NHP a defi nite must-have for 2012.

All of you female riders should look no fur-ther than the NHP and T5 women’s spec, developed with Asia „The Machete” Litwin.

Another novel feature is the new size of the Nobile 50Fifty. This wakestyle inspired, Mike „The Knife” Blomvall signature board (voted best twin tip of the year) will also be available in 134 x 39 cm for 2012.

Unless you’re not riding strapless, you know the connection between the rider and the board is also really important. This is why Nobile keeps on progressing when it comes to footpads. The ones introduced for 2012 are lighter and even more comforta-ble. In addition, now you can adjust the angle of your pads.

The latest version of popular all round kite N62 V3 surprises with it’s superb relaunch and perfect balance, while T5 - Koinobori is a perfect choice for freeride and waves thanks to it’s extremely well-rounded aerodynamic profi le and amazing low-end power.

The Human Concept is the philosophy that has driven us since the very beginning. Every-thing we do, starting form the R&D and design, up to fi nal product and customer service is focused to meet riders demands and expecta-tions. Even the best equipment is not able to function alone. The key factor is the rider, that means you.

Human Concept acknowledges that our goal remains the ultimate per-formance, through technological and innovative progress, but in combina-tion with natural advantages and limi-tations of our bodies, allowing riders to enjoy the quality and safety whilst achieving maximum performance from the equipment they are riding.

The impact of Human Concept is refl ec-ted in:

1. CONSTANT RESEARCH TO DEVELOP THE MOST ADVANCED FLEX CONTROL

Technological breakthroughs like 3D Con-struction and Pre-Stress technology. Our unequalled formula of fl ex control. Nobile boards are lighter, stronger and feature better responsiveness than any other. Lightweight construction, massive POP, excellent upwind and choppy water performan-ce plus unbelievable comfort on landings (to save your knees and back) are just some of the features you will fi nd in our boards. Despite being the most technically advanced products on the market, our boards are still easy to ride and forgiving.

Page 7: NOBILEKiteboarding 2012 collection

2. HIGH VISIBILITY ACCESSORIES.

All our accessories are in high visibility, rescue orange coloring. The color is exactly the same as used for life saving equipment. It will help you to fi nd your precious kiteboard when you drop it on the water.

3. INNOVATIONS THAT INCREASE ACTIVE AND PASSIVE SAFETY

Each and every Nobile Kiteboarding bran-ded item is designed to increase your safety while you enjoy the sport.

Unlike many others, our kiteboard grab handle is soft and fl exible. In case of crash, the possibility of injury caused by a grab han-dle is reduced to a minimum. In case of an accident on the water, KISS fulcrum can be easily disassembled and put together with just one hand. All Nobile kites feature 100% depower, and can be easily relaunched from the water. After an accident you do not need to take your kite back to the shore.In extre-me situations, all Nobile kites can be landed by rider, without a help of another person.

Our footpads for 2012 feature unique air chambers, designed to take most of the impact during the landings. This shock-absor-ber helps to protect your knees and spine, so your ride is now safer and more comforta-ble. Footpads are packed in a bag designed to hold down your kite when landed. Just fi ll it in with sand and put on the kite.

GET THE BEST OUT OF THE WINTER

“Snow is only frozen water”, they used to say. Extraordinary edge grip, massive pop, versatile fl ex pattern and progressive sidecut radius makes Nobile NHP Snowkite a perfect weapon of choice for all snowkiting and snow-boarding enthusiasts. Packed with cutting edge technologies like 3D Snake Transition and T.R.I.P. this board was especially designed to be used with a kite and work as a regu-lar snowboard. Unique blend of technologies secure fast and controlled ride, no matter if you’re shredding deep powder or cruising the piste.

Patented Snake Transition allows to com-bine 20 meters sidecut radius and soft fl ex pattern. This technology gives the board unparalleled control and response, even on icy and hard-pack conditions, while maintaining a soft fl ex. This uniqe solution makes the NHP an universal board that may be used both as a snowkite and as a snowboard.

Predominantly riding on your heel-side edge, there isn’t the same need to make quick turns as on a regular snowboard with its much smal-ler radius. The result is holding more speed, especially when going upwind, and better grip. When snow conditions can change from day to day, it’s great to know you’ve got a board that will continue to perform. The NHP Snow-kite will make your riding more comfortable, without being forced upwind all the time.

PRE-STRESSSTRONGER – LIGHTER – BETTER RESPONSIVENESS

Prestressing means the intentional creation of initial tension in a structure for the pur-

pose of improving its strength properties.

The concept of pre-stressed structure is widely employed in the design of buildings, underground structures, TV towers, power stations, fl oating storage and offshore facili-ties, nuclear reactor vessels, and numerous kinds of bridge systems.

The idea of prestressing was, apparently, familiar to the ancient Rome architects; the tall attic wall of the Colosseum works as a stabilizing device for the wall piers beneath.*

In kiteboarding, pre-stress allows the board to be loaded with energy during pro-duction. Storing the energy inside the board makes it a bit more stiff and much more tor-sion resistant, which results in astonishing POP. Pre-Stress technology also allows us to build thinner and lighter boards, yet still more durable.

* Defi nition according to wikipedia.com

3-D CONSTRUCTION

3D Construction is still an unmatched milestone in the area of kiteboarding tech-nology. Advanced fl ex management makes it extraordinarily comfortable on landings, gives it magnifi cent impact resistance and tons of control. 3D Construction allows more fl ex in

selected areas of the board. As a result, the board features shorter reaction time and better response, whilst still remaining easy to ride and forgiving.

POP GROWER

This special “W” shape cut keeps the tips of the board really fl exible to provi-de explosive pop. It’s like pieces of Semtex mounted under the tip and tail of the board, so you can now fl y higher than anyone else at the spot.

DYNAMIC ASYMMETRICAL SHAPE

Dynamic Asymmetrical Shape is desi-gned around the Human Concept, to enhan-ce your performance and work in harmony with your body.We have tailored the outline of the heel side rail to provide more grip, bet-ter upwind performance and maximum POP. On the weaker toe side, the curve radius is increased to improve the carving potential and comfort. At the same time DAS decre-ases the foot pressure necessary to hold an edge.

HYDRODYNAMIC ROCKER LINE

Hydrodynamic Rockerline was deve-loped after careful analysis of water movement under the kiteboard. Hydro-dynamic Profi le is designed to reduce water drag, optimizing the board shape directly to the water fl ow. The advantages over tradi-tional rocker with a fl at center are increased board speed and improved acceleration.

ELLIPTICAL PROGRESSIVE CONCAVE

The Elliptical Progressive Concave combines the advantages of both a fl at--bottomed board and concave. The tail

area is completely fl at, whilst the centre section of the board features concave. This shape benefi ts from earlier planning.

CAV - COMPLETE ANTI-VIBRATION TECHNOLOGY

By using advanced core materials, laminates and variable fl ex zones, we managed to eliminate almost all vibra-

tions that occur during the ride. CAV not only makes the ride smoother and faster, but also provides exceptional grip in all con-ditions.

GLOSSY LACQUER

Careful paint jobs not only magnifi es colors and makes your board the best

looking equipment on the spot, but it also protects the kiteboard graphic from fading.

UV RESISTANT FOILS

Our UV resistant foils ensures your board will look like new even a long time after purchase.

WOODCORE

There is no better material for a board core than wood. With its harmonious characteristic, combining strength, fl ex, light weight and vibration damping, wood is still the uncrowned king of core

materials.

HONEYCOMB

This aerospace product has found its swe-et spot in kiteboarding technology as well. It’s ten times lighter than wood, but has great durability. Placed in different areas depending on board model, it reduces weight, gives pop, improves tensional response and allows accurate fl ex adjustment.

X-REACTIVE FLEX SYSTEM

X layout of Carbon and Kevlar is a perfect combination. While Carbon supports rebo-und forces and edge grip, Kevlar reduces vibrations to minimum. Together this results in excellent pop, quick response and optimal torsion.

WATER RELAUNCH1.Auto-relaunch allows the kite to move to the edge of the wind window.

2.Just small input from the bar is just enough to start the kite.3.Your kite is in the air, enjoy.

AERODYNAMICS

Numerical analysis allows to defi ne the kite aerodynamics even at an early stages of

kite design. It allows us to independently evalu-ate the performance of the profi les as well as the whole kite. By knowing the pressure distri-bution we can modify the profi le to best serve our demands, shape the canopy and properly adjust the angles for separate sections of the kite. It allows thorough optimization of the kite, so that its lift force is maximized, drag is mini-mized, while speed is adjusted to desired level and it’s turning is optimized.

Every segment of the Kite has a diffe-rent profi le. In its central part, the kite profi le is designed to generate enough lift force at minimal drag and must provi-de kite stability. Additionally, the pitching

moment has to be held at a certain level, so not to cause problems with kite’s stabili-

ty, when it’s in the air. The angle imple-mented for these sections depends

on the wind window of the kite. Kite wing tips do not generate the lift - these are the elements you steer the kite with. The profi les used in these sections are smoother, to minimise air drag.

Page 40: NOBILEKiteboarding 2012 collection

T5-KOINOBORI CENTRAL STRUT.

The central strut of the T5 kite. It’s construction is based on many ring elements, which ensures a per-fect profi le regardless of its shape. This provides perfect support along the whole length of the strut.

T5-KOINOBORI SIDE STRUT.

This three piece construction is the best solution for thinner profi les. Two perfectly matched elements give very good support for canopy in the front of the profi le, where it’s most important.

N62 V3 STRUTS

The best and most universal solu-tion for profi les with a variety of curves. This side tube construction has a few elements, and thus a few seams. In this case the front of the profi le is aerodynamically shaped due

to the pressure created on the surface of the kite.

THIN STRUT ENDINGS

Thinner side tubes ends provide better aerodynamics, less drag and generally improve the kites speed. Optimized radius, without any addi-tional locks, enables easy service and bladders removal.

FLATTENED WING TIPS

Thinner main tube ends provide better aerodynamics by reducing drag, thus impro-ving the kites speed and increasing respon-se to any bar movement. It also makes the kite look much better.

CATCH-FREE VALVES LOCATION

Side-strut kite valves are placed at the outer sides of the struts, to create a “catch – free” location. It’s almost impossible for the bridles to catch the valve when launching the kite.

BRIDLE ATTACHMENT POINTS

Freshly developed technology of the bridle attachment combines both aesthetic and endurance aspects perfectly. Inner Dacron reinforcements within the tube are durable and almost invisible.

KITE PROFILE COMPARISON

T5-KOINOBORI VS. N62 V3

This kite has higher aspect ratio and higher angle of attack than N62. Best kite construction for those who want more – more lift, better hang time and great power control. Special rounded wingtips with thin profi les gives great turning performance and also helps with relaunch. This also makes you feel the kite better on the bar.

KISS BAR

KISS bar offers directional color coded graphics, double fi nger bumpers, multiple width connection possibilities, and color coded laminar rubber protections in the insi-de of the bar ends.

The polished full piece alloy central core remains for strength and for depower line durability: it features no sharp edges so the rope is safe and won’t damage or scratch.The big hole for the safety line (diameter = 9mm) in the middle axis of the C-loop secu-res smooth and trouble-free action of the safety line even if sand gets inside.

KISS System offers the most advanced quick release system on the market – fast, safe and easy to use.In case of an accident on the water, the KISS fulcrum can be easi-ly disassembled and put together with just one hand.

All 2012 fi ns are produced in KISS tool-free mounting standard. It takes just few seconds to mount/demount fi ns with your bare hands. Screwdriver is no longer necessary. Fins are made in extremely high visibility, „ultra oran-ge” color, so you always know where you dropped your precious kiteboard.

AIR SUPPORT GRANTED

The IFS Pro is a perfect connection betwe-en the rider and the board. Redesigned once again, the new footbed system is even more ergonomic and comfortable than it used to be. Driven by Human Concept idea, our con-

stant pursuit of the most

rider-friendly innovations also affects the IFS Pro. In the 2012 edition we introduce not only the multiple position mounting system, so you can choose the angle that suits you best, but also unique, built-in shock-absor-ber for even more comfort on landings.

To increase your safety and comfort, we designed custom air chambers featured in our footpads. During the landing the footbed deforms a little to absorb the impact, and in a blink of an eye, returns to it’s normal shape. This way the rider’s body is protected from the negative infl uence of the stroke.

FEATURES:

Ergonomic 3D footbed and straps shaping

Shock absorbing air chambers inside the footpad

Multiple mounting positions

High grip texture

Dual Velcro strap system

Quick and easy, one hand adju-stment

High visibility, “rescue orange” coloring

2 screws quick mounting

Lightweight and durable construction

Fits all feet
