| After turning heads on the PKRA in 2007 with his effortless style and cat-like landings, Mallory has helped develop a board as unique as his riding style. Mallory's goal was to develop a board that had really good pop, speed and upwind performance. "I wanted a board that was really comfortable to ride but at the same time still be able to squeeze a lot of performance from it. I like to have really good pop for doing powered tricks, because when you don't use the kite you need to trust your board to be sure you're gonna land your trick and this board gives me all I need. It's really good upwind and goes fast for people who like some speed. I dare you to try it...you'll want to sleep with it at night!" -Mallory Delavillamarque |

| The 2008 Jaime Series is bridging the gap between free-ride and freestyle. Possibly the most universal board in the North range, the Jaime has plenty of pop for throwing powered new-school tricks yet maintains a smooth, comfy feel. The secret to the Jaime's huge range lies in its asymmetrical bottom concave that combines a new-school rocker in the center of the board for speed with a rounder scoop line along the rails for a forgiving ride. Medium flex makes the Jaime perfect for laying down tracks in small waves. |

The Haze is our twin tip range with the greatest amount of flex for versatile
freeriding. Built for those who expect the highest performance, the Haze offers
the power and control you need to step up your riding. In the same general
performance category as the Thorn, the Haze is tuned with board sizes, flex,
and rocker to be easier to ride, and easier on your bank account.
Riders familiar with this line will find that the 2007 series has the same feel and
balance, as well as the same durable finish that you have come to expect from
the Haze. The new shaping on the tips makes the boards livelier and a must have
for the new season. |

The 2007 Sol twin tip concept provides a huge sweet-spot for achieving top
performance for our team’s competition freestyle standards while still being an
ideal twin tip for waveriding.
Drawing from some progressive wakeboard and snowboard designs, the 2007 Sol
is a product of vision combining the feel of many styles into one. Unlike kiteboards
that try to achieve strength and snap by using foam instead of wood, the Sol uses
proven snowboard construction with a tip-to-tip wood-core to give you the same
feeling with no compromise. The Sol has the ability to excel at power freestyle,
but is still ultra smooth when you just want to go out and carve.
With the Sols progressive outline, remember to look at the width of the board
more than the length when choosing a board size. Its bigger sizing allows you to
maintain all of the power that you need, while still giving you the ultimate Sol ride. |

Each board has been individually designed to ensure that you don't have a board that requires lots of kite power all the time, or skips out in high winds. This board will enable you to take your riding up a gear.
Jumping ability
The combination of the composite core and top-mould design helps to control the flex and provides the board with outstanding levels of pop. This makes wake style tricks and jumping easy, enjoyable and fun!
Forgiving profile and rocker line
The forgiving nature of this board allows the rider to try new things and develop their skills on a progressive learning scale. The flexible tips help to eliminate nose diving on landings, whilst maintaining edge control at high speeds.
