Hi guys!
Just ask about the boards on the market that have raised edge to use on the park: sliders, kickers, fun box, rails, etc...
Cheers!
I have the fifty from 2014 I think, you can put boots on but it's surprisingly light, though so far it's been very durable, I honestly don't know for sure but I don't think it has a grind base to hit features, also it has more flex that you probably want.Balser Boy wrote: Thanks a lot!
Just one questione more:
Also the Nobile 50fifty is suitable to kite and park?
I'm not sure what the raised edge thing is you are referring to? Anyway wakeboards are generally built to withstand more abuse (ie more reinforcement and heavier) and have more rocker than kiteboards. More rocker gives more control at the expense of efficiency.Balser Boy wrote: ↑Tue May 23, 2017 6:11 pmHi guys!

Sorry for going off topic, but I don't get why concave would help with upwind ability?NorCalNomad wrote: ↑Tue May 23, 2017 9:27 pmand most now have bottom concaves that help with upwind ability without fins.
NorCalNomad said it, if you don't have fins concave and channels helps with edging and tracking upwind. You don't think so?rynhardt wrote: ↑Wed May 24, 2017 6:53 pmSorry for going off topic, but I don't get why concave would help with upwind ability?NorCalNomad wrote: ↑Tue May 23, 2017 9:27 pmand most now have bottom concaves that help with upwind ability without fins.
Concave helps to stiffen the board and it makes landings harder.
Can you give an example of a board with a curved edge? I would be really interested in trying one, as I've caught more back edges than is healthy for me. Every time I land blind without digging an edge I thank my personal deity.
Channels yes, not as efficient as fins, but they do provide lift. Concave, not so much. It may provide like one degree more edging than a flat bottom. Nothing significant, in my opinion.jeromeL wrote: ↑Wed May 24, 2017 6:59 pmNorCalNomad said it, if you don't have fins concave and channels helps with edging and tracking upwind.
