August 2006 Update - JP / NP 07 Equipment |
^ RS:Slalom 7.8m & JP Super Sport 126 Pro |
|
|
 |
| Well here we are in the middle of August already having experienced a really excellent period of wind throughout much of the United Kingdom. We hope others of you worldwide have also been as lucky! |
 |
| Most of the 2007 JP-Australia board range has arrived now although some more sought after models have sold out immediately. If you haven't already checked out the new range then have a look at our website here. |
|
| One of the last models to arrive was the new Super Sport. Well what a board this is - it was well worth the wait! Without doubt it offers an amazing blend of full-on performance with a high degree of control and manoeuvre orientation. Having sailed most of the new range now I can definitely say that this board is like mixing up the Slalom and X-Cite Ride ranges. For most of us mere mortals we'll sail faster, for longer, and have more fun on a board like this. It is truly fantastic and absolutely ideal for any speed and excitement minded sailors! |
|
| We've also had the new RS:Slalom sails in only about 2 weeks behind schedule. This really matches up with the ethos of the Super Sport boards. For sure the RS:Slalom will knock most of your rivals top end sails for six, but with such easy rigging and great handling it really does offer so much more. Details of this online here. |

| ^ Tail Cut-Out / G10 Fin - Pro Ed Boards |
|
| Those who have visited Riks since these boards came in will not have failed to have noticed the new Kevlar finished tail cut-outs! |
|
| Yes, there for the functional reasons of being smoother, faster and easier to turn - but for sure looking cool is a big added bonus! |
|
| The Pro Edition models aside of having the custom look, wicked carbon bits, and of course the massive weight saving, also come with a range of high spec fins that work well. |
|
| Super X & Super Sports come with G10 foils that perform across a massive range. |
