2010 North Sails Gold Series booms
16
During the next few weeks the new 2010 North Sails Gold Series booms will be hitting a dealer near you.
The new 2010 North Sails Gold Series booms are up to 30% stiffer and stronger than standard aluminium booms even at full extension. The Gold Series booms are the first aluminium booms to approach the stiffness and strength of high performance full carbon booms.
Using the new ALU.TITAN.HYBRID.CONSTRUCTION process 8 separate aluminium segments are bonded together using an aerospace glue forming an ALU.TITAN tube. A new Teflon coated tail end also makes length adjustment much easier. The award winning iFront head allows propelling forces to transfer entirely free from play with the flex adjustment allowing you to improve individual comfort to the conditions
Constructed in Germany you can be sure of great build quality, reliability and performance from the new 2010 North Sails Gold Series booms.

One of the biggest names in the Windsurfing world volunteered his time to teach budding windsurfers at Lagoon Watersports, Hove Lagoon at a one-off masterclass, ahead of next week's White Air Extreme Sports and Music Festival which starts on Friday 18th September.
The masterclass was aimed at 9-12 years olds to help them learn tips and techniques from the legendary World Champion whilst improving their skills on the water.

SHOX.XTR combines our pioneering POWER.XTR ratchet mechanism with an integrated high-end shock absorber. More on the SHOX.XTR here
