Description
The North Jaime Pro 2011 Series is bridges
the gap between free-ride and freestyle.
Possibly the most universal board in the North
range, the North Jaime 2011 has plenty of pop for throwing
powered new-school tricks yet maintains a smooth, comfy feel.
Combining new-school performance characteristics with plug-and-play
free-ride comfort, the Jaime is a legendary, progressive,
all-terrain machine and truly a benchmark in a league of its
own.
The subtle combination of a round rocker, single concave
and Responsive Centre Flex makes the North Jaime extremely
smooth through
the chop, yet still aggressive enough to keep up with the
young guns with amazing pop and a solid, positive feel
on edge.
Featuring North's most high-tech construction,
harmonic flex and S-bend fins, the Jaime’s emphasis
on early planing and great
upwind ability make it ideal for gusty winds, to keep
you planing through the holes. The 137cm
offers plenty of reserves for heavier
people even in tricky, gusty conditions, where a little
extra planing
surface is needed.
The combination of medium flex and new carbon
light-wood construction dampens the chop and gives the
North Jaime
Pro new levels of comfort and gives you the best of both
worlds: New school performance and free-ride comfort.
The secret to the Jaime's huge range lies
in it's asymmetrical bottom concave that combines a new-school
rocker in the centre of the board for speed with a rounder
scoop line along the rails for a forgiving ride.
Throughout the test process - North have developed
a new construction that translates into more comfort and livelier
performance when compared to it's predecessors.
Medium flex makes the Jaime perfect for laying
down tracks in small waves.
With over 30,000 boards sold, Jaime's 9th
generation pro model sets a new benchmark in performance and
advanced board construction.
North Jaime
Pro 2011 Features / Technology:
3D Wood Carbon Cap
Sandwich:
2011 is a big leap forward in board technology as North Kiteboarding
introduces the 3D Wood Carbon Cap Sandwich in combination
with the Responsive Centre Flex. Combining the unique properties
of wood core and carbon fibre, with an advanced flex pattern
from a CNC milled 3D deck and concave bottom, the 2011North
Kiteboard range is setting a new standard in performance,
comfort and durability.
Technology Leader:
The unique thing about the 3D Wood Carbon Cap Sandwich is
the fully 3D shaped wood core with the advanced deck flex
pattern and concave bottom. This type of advanced step cap
sandwich construction, in combination with a concave bottom
has previously only been possible to manufacture with foam
cores, which have certain limitations regarding flex, core
thickness and shear strength. Thanks to North's strong R&D
focus and collaboration with one of the world’s leading
snowboard factories, North Kiteboarding is the first company
in the world to introduce 3D Wood Carbon Cap Sandwich. This
technology opens up a new door for flex development. In terms
of kiteboards it means a significant performance boost and
a whole new level of comfort for the rider.
Comfort:
The strong, fibrous structure of the wood core allow for a
thinner core profile and a higher amount of bending compared
with a traditional foam core, without the risk of breakage.
The result is a board with a greater amount of flex, working
as an active suspension while riding, providing a smooth and
controlled feeling even through rough water.
Responsiveness:
Thanks to the natural flex characteristics and spring back
of the wood core, our new boards have a responsive and lively
feel on the water, without sacrificing the comfort.
A further step in technology is the Responsive Centre Flex.
The result is a highly responsive, yet still forgiving board,
with instant feedback to the rider’s input.
Control:
The 3D Wood Carbon Cap Sandwich construction has a higher
amount of flex and torsion than a traditional foam core. This
allows the board to quickly adapt to every impact from the
water surface, giving the rider more space for mistakes, without
the risk of loosing control. What the rider
will experience is a board that’s easy to set up for
take off and forgiving in the landings, and maintains good
grip when riding full speed through choppy water. On the North
Jaime Pro 2011, the concave bottom keeps the board sucked
to the surface of the water while effortlessly blasting through
knee high chop, drawing full speed turns or carving in the
waves.
Strength:
North's wood core has three times higher density than a standard
foam core, and much greater strength and impact resistance.
Fatigue resistance, the ability to withstand stress caused
by thousands of impacts and hard landings over time, has been
significantly improved. Heel dents, split cores and cracked
laminates are history. The new 3D Wood Carbon Cap Sandwich
is the strongest construction we’ve ever made, reassuring
a long
life and functionality for your kiteboard.
3D Decks Responsive
Centre Flex:
For 2011 North have worked hard to further enhance the feeling
and performance of our twin tips through innovation. A harmonic
flex from front to rear means that the rocker line is actively
changing and adapting to the water’s surface, which
gives you pro active dampening and absorption of chop. Furthermore,
the continuous flex offers increased power flow for hard pop,
making take-offs easier and more predictable. Torsional Absorption
System offers smoother, stickier landings, a more solid feel
through the water, more grip on the heel-side edge and consequently
better upwind performance. Flex Tips give you more control
when combined with lower bottom curve as well as responsive,
controllable pop and cushioned, comfortable landings.
Absorption Flex Tips:
The flex tips are reinforced with transversal
ribs for increased torsional stiffness to create a more aggressive
edge grip and pop while the longtitudinal flex remains moderate
for a smooth and forgiving ride. The result is maximum performance,
control and durability in combination with a high level of
comfort.
Super Flight
Core:
Keeps the kiteboard extremely light and responsive yet durable
enough to withstand all the abuse that this style of riding
can dish out!
Medium
Flex:
Allowing you to ride a majority of water conditions without
compromising on performance.
Who is the board designed for:
If you want a kiteboard that is comfortable to ride in all
types of conditions, the North Jaime Pro 2011 makes them easy
and fun to ride. No matter if it's slick-flat or rough choppy
water this board will do it all. The North Jaime Pro 2011
will please riders seeking a complete board that will be both
fun and challenging, cruising on a long down-winder or pushing
their level to the next impossible move.
