2011 North Windsurfing Boom Gold New School Series

The North Gold New School Series new windsurfing boom is for wave, freestyle and freeride use.

BONDED.TECHNOLOGY is the unique NORTH SAILS production procedure where the boom arms and the head are "melted" together with special aerospace standard glue. This exclusive production technology now has enabled a quantum jump in the hybrid boom segment. In order to being able to bend alloy to the shape of a boom you have to use a pliable and relatively soft alloy. With the new Gold boom we’ve taken a completely new path, with a boom that’s been literally separated into straight and bent segments. In the bent areas we still use a common “elastic” T8 alloy to achieve the desired bend curve. For the very first time in all straight areas we’re able to use a 30% stiffer, unbendable ALU.TITAN tube. Due to the BONDED.TECHNOLOGY the separate segments are finally fused into one unit at the end of the production process and so ALU.TITAN.HYBRID.CONSTRUCTION is born.

The result sets a new industrial standard in stiffness for alloy booms (up to 30% stiffer than common alloy booms). As a result the new Gold boom almost reaches the stiffness of a high end carbon boom. In order to rival carbon booms in racing, we’ve taken over the bend curve, as well as the revolutionary OVERSIZED.OUTSIDE tail end concept of the PLATINUM race boom for the 190-250 length. This means that in comparison to thinner internally placed tail ends the boom maintains stiffness even at full extension. Propelling forces are transferred entirely free from play and directly via the iFRONT head, whereas comfort is individually adjustable via the flex adjustment. The shorter lengths have the thin 28mm diameter for relaxed forearms and better suspension, in favor of uncompromising rigidity the Gold 190 has 30mm strong tubes with non slip and soft grip. The short lengths up to 1.60cm have an ergonomically ideal new school bend curve for keeping both hands in the same distance from the center of the sail and preventing the rider’s front arm from being overstretched. Gold – the new industry standard in hybrid booms!

NORTH SAILS INTEGRATED.RIG.TECHNOLOGY – The perfect rig
For over a decade North Sails has been one of the few brands who develop all windsurfing rig components for use exclusively by North Sails. This guarantees that all North Sails components are state of the art and work better when used in conjunction with a North Sail to generate the absolute maximum performance.

NORTH SAILS BEST.FIT.SYSTEM – Perfectly matching components
One thing is sure all North Sails components fit almost all sails of different brands and improve their performance. In addition there are ideal combinations that can get the maximum out of every rig. Components within the Red, Silver, Gold and Platinum series make great combinations and were designed to perfectly match each other. In terms of performance and price the following rule of thumb applies: the more money you spend, the lighter, more dynamic and powerful your rig will be. This means that you determine how much performance you need or how much you are willing to invest in your performance.
