Technology
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. Its forgiving flex means softer landings and gives you the 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 characteristics 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 North to further fine tune the flex and board characteristics. North adjusts 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 customized core thickness individually fine-tuned to ensure its characteristics are consistent throughout the range, no matter your size or weight.
Standardized M6 Stainless hardware
Standardized SS316 M6x16mm hardware across all North tip tip boards and accessories enables the use of the same PH3 screwdriver for assembly and makes replacing 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 standardized screws. 40mm fins (Size 144cm and under) or 50mm fins (Size 148cm+)
Recommended with North 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 customized 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 feature North's FlipTech Mounting System, with centerline 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.
