New for 2023 - Freestyle Diamond CCS

Riding with our more freestyle orientated clients they all said the same "we need a board fast on landings and great cut for boosting".

The Freestyle diamond uses a very clever outline to achieve a great cut but remaining stable in the landings. The active drive edge length is 130cm's on a 138 board , every kitesurfer knows the smaller the board the easier it is to cut against the power of the kite and launch a jump. The Freestyle Diamond has the feel of a 130 but with the landing control of a 138 twintip.

This twintip achieves both dynamics , great cut and stable landings. The actual tip is 4mm wider than our standard all-terrain outline. The construction uses the strongest and lightest available in kitesurfing , Quad directional carbon-fiber with the Composite hybrid Carbon-dyneema reinforceing the structure, torsional carbon tape is used to control flex and reflex dynamics.

In true custom fashion the Freestyle Diamond shape and flex system can be applied to the Carbon C or the Carbon CC construction systems.

The 2023 Carbon twintip models.

For 2023 Nomad have enhanced the concave and tweaked the outlines for an even smoother ride and updated the carbon construction.

The 2023 model range is divided into 3 construction builds , Carbon C , Carbon CC , Carbon CCS , and 2 riding styles - freestyle or all-terrain. Clients can pick and choose between the build and riding style.

A carbon kiteboard for every budget, each model differs in material specification and the building technique used to complete the finished board.

The customized magic adjusts the flex to the riders weight and perfectly positions the footstraps.

Beautiful on the outside , rocket science on the inside.

Carbon fiber can be flexible - it can be rigid - its all in the shape and design. A carbon tube is rigid , a carbon sheet is flexible. Nomad uses carbon fiber with flex to control the shape of the board , think of the flex like a spring , imagine a car with no suspension - very uncomfortable and not controllable. The carbon fiber is flexing , absorbing , quickly adjusting to the movement of the water surface , the result in kitesurfing terms with a great rocker curve and outline is a smooth efficient passage through the water leaving the rider to focus on kitesurfing and pushing the limits.

The first feedback you get from any Nomad rider is how the board is so smooth and effortless , "it feels like you are riding on air"

The Nomad Carbon-twintip range uses carbon in all its models , the more expensive models use a higher carbon content which allows Nomad to be more exact with the flex and even position carbon in key areas. The result is an even smoother and precise ride with the high end models.

Don't forget the weight aspect , the amazing feeling of riding a lightweight kiteboard can never be underestimated. The weight of each kiteboard is directly customized to the riders weight. Nomad will build a twinip for a 50 kilo rider lighter in weight than a twintip built for a 100 kilo rider. In safety terms Nomad builds a twintip about double the strength needed for the riders weight giving years of use and a highly guaranteed product.

Carbon fiber is a very strong material , one of its key aspects is weight to strength ratio, to support the carbon fiber further Nomad uses Kevlar and Dyneema to guarantee strength and absorb high impact loads and distribute forces across the entire kiteboard structure. The Carbon C and Carbon CC both use Kevlar in the laminates , the Carbon CCS uses Dyneema a composite hybrid used for kite lines and many military applications. The Carbon CCS uses Dyneema to create an extremely strong and lightweight kiteboard , only this combination of Carbon-Dyneema can achieve this bullet proof construction with advanced vibration absorbing dynamics , and unfortunately explains the twintips high price.

Some quick weight examples , a Carbon CCS at 138 for a 80 kilo rider weighs 1,6 kilos , the Carbon C at 142 for a 100 kilo rider weighs 2,0 kilos.

Don't underestimate the complexity of using the above building techniques , its taken 19 years - Nomad calculates some 3000 sold custom twintips to achieve the level of experience and the result of what is today the most detailed shape and kiteboard design available in the world today , rocket science ? getting there...

Comfort , Comfort - the very important footstrap positions

The major advantage of custom building kiteboards is personalizing to the mm the positions of the footstraps , many riders end up with footstrap positions as it came in the box. Nomad offers 20 years of riding kiteboards to help you find the exact position for your style and riding level. The strap positions is all about comfort , its not important the size of the board or the discipline you are riding. After 2 hours of kitesurfing incorrect positions can start to tell , problems with knees and ankles can easily be sorted by well placed footstraps.

During the ordering process Nomad carefully looks at positions used on a clients previous kiteboard and makes any recommendations needed. Multiple positions are also a great idea and free of charge.

Quick look at the details.

All Nomad custom boards are individually custom hand built in Germany.
