North Jaime Pro 2011 Kiteboard Angled Fins


The bottom of the new Jaime pro seems to be very interesting this year.The Fins have been angled so instead of them going in a direction of 12 to 6 ( like the arms on a clock) they are more like 11 to 5, so they are spayed out. The idea behind this is, as most riders always ride their boards on a rail, so the board is at a angle. If you angle the fin so it is when riding in a more down ward direction, you get more grip, as the fin is tracking in a more vertical plane. So for 2011 the fin sizes have been reduced in size to make the board even looser, but due to the angle you get the same amount of grip due to the slight angle, a stunning idea by North love it.
