In The Design:

• Progressive single concave – Flexible pulled-in tips combine with a progressive single concave with flatter mid-section for faster early planing, and slicing splash-free through chop.        
• Balanced rocker, outline and flex – For smooth, controlled upwind tracking. The Prime’s rounded outline is easy to edge, helping you stay in control and progress faster; while it’s forgiving flex means softer landings and gives you confidence for jumps and boosts.        
• Durable ABS rail with smoothed edge – Long-lasting performance rails with user-friendly smoothed edges help protect your skin from accidental scrapes and bruises.        Composite construction – The combination of a Paulownia wood core with engineered E-glass laminate layups on the top and bottom drives riding performance to the next level.        
• Dynamic flex – Ride in comfort, with precise edge control for carving. The flex characteristic of every TwinTip Board is determined by multiple features built into each specific design. Core thickness variations and taper, as well as detailing, longitudinally and laterally, play the most significant role in controlling the overall flex and feel. Board specific laminate layups then allow us to further fine tune the flex and board characteristics. We adjust the stiffness lengthwise and torsionally in conjunction with the rocker line, plan shape view and profile of the board, to give each board its specific performance characteristics.    
• Lightweight, impact resistant eco core – Paulownia is a highly renewable hardwood species, with one of the highest strength to weight ratios. Ultra lightweight, with a high shear force and high impact resistance. Paulownia wood forms a non-toxic core which significantly displaces the amount of foam or resin used in manufacturing, thereby reducing carbon emissions. Each board has a customised core thickness individually fine-tuned to ensure its characteristics are consistent throughout the range, no matter your size or weight.    
• Standardised M6 Stainless hardware – Standardised SS316 M6x16mm hardware across all twin tip boards and accessories enables the use of the same PH3 screwdriver for assembly and makes replacement of parts super easy.        
• Ergonomic handle – Lightweight and ergonomic TPE material with ultimate grip when wet.        
• Fins included – Strong, abrasion resistant composite fins with dogbone washers and M6x16mm standardised screws. 40mm fins (Size 144 and under) or 50mm Fins (Size 148 +).        
• Recommended with flex bindings – Soft cushioning with just the right amount of grip underfoot. Pure-comfort seamless KnitFlex inners and triple-density GripFlex footbeds are combined with customised size and stance adjustments for a locked-in feel and dependable support. Sold separately in sizes S/M or M/L.        
• FlipTech Mounting – For 2024, all of the North TwinTip boards our new FlipTech Mounting System, with centreline inserts. This means if you wear out one side of your board, simply flip the bindings around and you’ve got a shiny new heelside rail again.
