Description
New for 2008, Nobile is proud to announce
the Shinn Wave.
This board has been designed and developed over 12 months
to make wave sailing as accessible and fun as possible through
the application of advanced flex control and snowboard construction
techniques. A dedicated directional or 60/40 twin the choice
is yours, this board really does have something to offer novice
waveriders up to experts alike.
Classic surfboards provide a unique experience for riders
of the highest ability. However, in the development of this
board we've tried to recognise that not everyone has either
the opportunity to ride in perfect conditions nor the time
needed to master the techniques required to enjoy a dedicated
board to the fullest.
Creating a high flex composite core and 3-step tail design
has allowed us to divert from the normal high rockers associated
with wave boards and their associated poor planing performance.
With the help of the single progressive concave hull and tucked
ABS rails Nobile have created a board that planes early, flies
upwind and yet still provides grip and drive through the bottom
turn, tight snappy off the lips and insane slashes.
If you're not confident of your gybes (or just looking to
get out of an uncomfortable situation fast) the nose fins
offer a genuine solution to riding both ways yet are small
enough to avoid catching when riding waves.
In order to make the board as versatile as possible large
12 mm moulded EVA pads are supplied pre attached and this
board features our new dedicated wave strap. Stance positions
are provided for both in line directional riding and offset
twin riding.
Who is the board designed for:
The Shinn wave is aimed at riders looking to achieve more
"bite" in their wave riding in all conditions without
committing to a full surf orientated directional.

Integrated Footbed
System: For 2008 Nobile introduce the Integrated
Footbed System increasing both comfort and functionality for
the rider.
Simply select your stance and screw them in, no other assembly
is necessary even the screws come ready in the pad. Gone is
the difficult and consuming task of trying to compress the
pad to fit the screws as is the risk of crossing threads and
ruining the board before you even get to ride it!
Building the pad and strap together into one unit has allowed
Nobile to completely eliminate twist at the fixation point;
a major source of discomfort when riding.
Conventional straps are higned on one side for adjustment.
The geometry of the strap fits the average size foot well
but the bigger and smaller feet are left to suffer. Adjusting
the size to it's extreme forces the form fitted sections into
the wrong position in relation to your foot.The vertical adjustment
in our new system ensures that the strap fits into the correct
position no matter what the size and shape of your foot without
having to resort to using a screw driver.
**Price include footstraps, footbeds, fins, grab handle and
board bag**
