7 boards , specs and product clips

North Pro Series 2013 product clip

The Pro Series is the direct result of team rider input over the last year with the aim to create a no-compromise competition board to perform at the highest level in small to medium surf. The Pro Series features low rails, a pushed-back wide point, ultra pulled-in squash tail and the most rocker of any board in the NKB range. The added rocker is ideal for fins free reverse landings and allows for ultra tight and responsive snaps in the most critical sections without bogging or catching. The Pro Series also doubles as a high performance paddle surfboard for advanced surfers in clean, powerful waves.

 North Woohoo 2013 product clip

The WooHoo is a scaled down version of NKB’s most popular model, the Wam, with optimized width and volume and rail thickness to suit most female riders in the widest range of conditions. A subtle blend of medium rails, fast rocker and well-balanced outline make the WooHoo the perfect all-rounder. The WooHoo delivers dependable performance in nearly all conditions, strapped or strapless, from small to well overhead surf. The tri/quad fin configuration allows the WooHoo to be customized to your desired feel; Tri-fin mode offers more hold and drive, while quad-fin mode offers a more skatey and loose feel ideal for smaller surf.

 North Nugget 2013 product clip

The Nugget is all about having fun and maximizing your time and stoke in the water! This radically different approach to a conventional surfboard allows you to get out there and rip apart small waves in light wind. The Nugget’s ultra wide round-tail, super low rocker and a unique bottom shape are all aimed at maximum glide, tight turns and upwind performance in light wind and small surf. Full boxy rails and an ultra flat deck maximize the Nugget’s volume to keep it short and compact. Don’t let the looks deceive you… This fat little board absolutely rips strapped or strapless! If you are serious about maximizing your time on the water and want a board that truly performs when others will not, you need a Nugget.

 North Whip 2013 product clip

The Whip is a short and wide quad-fin hybrid, blending a short rail line with a super fast entry rocker and generous tail curve to draw fast, tight arcs in small to medium surf. The Whip’s low entry rocker makes it quick to plane and provides glide and carry through turns and flat sections. The Whip is the board of choice among team riders for newschool tricks in small waves, providing a wide and stable platform for landing progressive aerial manoeuvres. However, the Whip is equally suited to riders of all skill levels looking for an early planing board with great stability, comfort and effortless turning.

North Wam 2013 product clip

A subtle blend of medium rails, fast rocker and well-balanced outline make the Wam the all-round workhorse of the NKB surf range. The Wam delivers dependable performance in the widest range of conditions, strapped or strapless, from small to well overhead surf. Building on previous year’s models, the 2013 Wam now features thinner, refined rails, a rounded-square tail and a slight reduction in nose width to pull through those critical turns. The tri/quad fin configuration allows the Wam to be customized to your desired feel; Tri-fin mode offers more hold and drive, while quad-fin mode offers a more skatey and loose feel ideal for smaller surf.

 North Whip X-surf 2013 product clip

The Whip X-Surf Edition is essentially a scaled up version of the Whip. Designed to surf or kitesurf small to medium “every day” wave conditions, the Whip X Surf Edition is a short and wide quad-fin hybrid, blending a short rail line with a super fast entry rocker and generous tail curve to draw fast, tight arcs. The low entry rocker makes it quick to plane and easy to paddle and provides glide and carry through turns and flat sections. The Whip X Surf Edition is the board of choice among larger team riders for new-school tricks in small waves, providing a wide and stable platform for landing progressive aerial manoeuvres. However, the Whip X Surf Edition is equally suited to riders of all skill levels looking for an early planing, easy paddling board with great stability, comfort and effortless turning.

North Kontact 2013 product clip

The Kontact is ideal for riders looking to tackle big waves or those simply looking for a very control-oriented board in choppy water and strong wind conditions. The Kontact’s predictable rocker, long rail line and rounded pintail give you confidence to lean hard into turns and carve long lines with predictable grip and hold.
