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.

As the largest board in the Pro Series, the Sky is designed to suit Sky's size, weight and powerful riding style. Explosive pop and direct response through the hard flex and wide tips, the Sky also smokes upwind. The Sky is perfect for larger riders or riders looking for a light wind freestyle board. "It just blows my mind how this board has evolved in the last year. The refined outline and new construction gives it insane pop and speed! It's lively, light and easy to throw around." -Sky Solbach.

The new Flexifoil Delta boards have been created for intermediate and experienced riders who are looking for a kiteboard to use in a wide range of conditions. The board has been carefully designed to focus on rider comfort, ease of use and versatility.
Key features
> 129 x 38.5 / 134 x 40 / 139 x 41.5 (three size options)
> Durability
> Adaptability
> Jumping and pop ability
> High levels of performance
> Variable Stance position
Adaptability
The Delta board excels as an all-round board. It's suited for both freestyle and freeride; this is partly due to the carefully balanced length to width ratio, which has helped make the Delta the board of choice for many of the Flexifoil pro-rider team. 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. The overall rocker and rail outline (coupled with the progressive flex in the board) makes the Delta range the most comfortable boards to ride in choppy water that we have ever made.
