<h2><strong>Take a look at the Shinn Surf Straps Wave Sneaker LTD at S2AS!</strong></h2> <p>The shape and material for the Shinn foil straps have been carefully selected to bring you maximum comfort and support while riding.</p> <h3><strong>Features:</strong></h3> <ul> <li>Complete with hardware compatible with Shinn Foil Boards.</li> <li>Sold as a set of 3.</li> </ul>
<h2><strong>Take a look at the Shinn Nubo Wing Foilboard at S2AS!</strong></h2><p>The Nubo is Shinn's no-compromise Wing foil board that combines performance and accessibility in a range of 4 sizes to suit all riders and conditions.<br/><br/>Designed around the Compact Board Concept that minimizes un-needed length and width in favour of rider friendly thickness, the volume has been carefully distributed to make starting effortless even in the lightest of winds. Insanely easy to release from the water the unique base channel combined with hard edged rails and a flatter tail rocker ensure you’re flying whilst others are still pumping.<br/><br/>The concave deck shaping lowers Nubo's centre of gravity to increasing foiling stability and surrounds the full-cover deckpad. Developed with an EPS / carbon/glass-biax construction, the Nubo delivers a strong yet lightweight construction.<br/><br/>The Nubo has inserts for 1, 2 or 3 strap settings and a base mounted carry to handle to ensure getting in and out of the water is as easy as riding the board. </p><h3><strong>Features:</strong></h3><p>– Construction: At the heart of the Nubo is a CNC shaped, light-weight EPS foam core laminated with a combination of Carbon and Glass fibre Biax layers ensuring a stiff, light and durable foilboard. The industry standard 90mm spaced foil tracks are embedded in high-density PVC foam and carbon ensuring their strength and rigidity is integral.<br/>– Rocker: Featuring enough nose lift to recover from inadvertent touch downs the Nubo rocker is optimised to maximise waterline length, essential in achieving take off speed with light winds and small wings. A slight tail kick makes it easier to kick the board up onto the foil without the reduction of volume in the rear of the board that radical cut-aways create.<br/>– Balanced Volume distribution: A carefully implemented volume distribution is essential in providing a stable and easy starting platform together with balanced riding when not on the foil. The chopped nose of the Compact Board Concept ensure the minimum possible length without compromising the boards volume and also helps recover faster from accidental touchdowns.<br/>– Base channel: A pronounced channel is featured through the base on all the boards in the Nubo range. Forcing air under and along the board reduces the stiction effect of the waters surface allowing for both easier acceleration and faster take-offs. <br/>– Footstrap options: Featuring multiple options all sizes of the Nubo can be set up with one, 2 or 3 strap arrangements. A variety of stance widths (2 positions on the front straps and 4 on the rear) ensure every riders stance can be accommodated. We’ve used M6 machine screw inserts ensuring a tight and strong connection that won’t wear out no matter how many times you put the straps on and off the board. Don’t like to use straps? The Nubo can be ridden strapless too. <br/>– Foil Scale: Ensure your set up is perfectly tuned for every session and set of conditions. Foil position is one of the most critical aspects to ensure you are in control and can extract the maximum performance from your gear and our scale allows you to dial it in exactly time and time again.</p><h3><strong>Sizing:</strong></h3><p>– 65L: 4'10" x 23" x 3.9" (147 x 58.4 x 9.9cm)<br/>– 85L: 5' x 25" x 4.5" (152.5 x 63.5 x 11.5cm)<br/>– 105L: 5'5" x 27" x 4.9" (165 x 68.5 x 12.4cm)<br/>– 125L: 5'11" x 30" x 4.7" (180 x 76.4 x 11.9cm)</p>

The channeling on the Monk Chromatic does more than simply redirect the water across the board, it creates the most efficient ride possible by encouraging the flow through the critical areas rather than forcibly redirecting across the whole board. This has not compromised the dynamic flex profile ensuring that the comfort and control elements that kitesurfers everywhere already love about the Monk are not sacrificed.<br /> <br /> A freeride boards performance is equally important as a freestyle deck, the Monk Chromatic delivers more grip, more drive and more POP yet softer landings, same comfort and same chop handling.</p> <h3><strong>Construction:</strong></h3> <p>- Paulownia Full Wood Core: The best strength to weight ratio available with long lasting durability<br /> - Lightweight and Defined Flex Shape</p> <h3><strong>Shape and Accessories:</strong></h3> <p>- Multi Ridge and Concave Base<br /> - Fan Tail Exhasut Tips<br /> - Central Radius Outline, w/ Direct Drive Tips<br /> - BITE Hi-Performance Fins: Optoflex molded composite fins for superior profile accuracy and lighter weight<br /> - Sneaker 6 or Sneaker HMT Pads (sold seperately)</p> <h3><strong>Sizing:</strong></h3> <p>- 132 x 40cm<br /> - 134 x 41cm<br /> - 136 x 41cm<br /> - 138 x 43cm<br /> - 140 x 44cm</p>
<h2><strong>Take a look at the Shinn Bronq Chromatic Kiteboard at S2AS!</strong></h2> <p>All new but clearly displaying it’s lineage – the Bronq Chromatic is much more than just an incremental change, it’s a giant step forwards in efficiency and comfort and was described by designer Mark Shinn as “without doubt my favourite of all the TT boards I have ever tested”.<br /> <br /> Building on the lessons learnt through the development of the Slicer Split TT Shinn combined the Double Step tip channels with the all new Dual-Track base to create an unrestricted water flow throughout the board’s length. Supremely fast to “unstick” in light winds and it's knife-like upwind ability don’t detract from what is undoubtably the plushest and most engaging ride in the whole Chromatic range.<br /> <br /> The Bronq kiteboard was developed to a highly specialised design brief; to provide "un-rivalled, plush freeride enjoyment no matter the conditions" and few kitesurfing boards available today can claim to live up to these standards and the new Bronq is certainly one of them, described buy Kiteworld magazine as “loose, playful and (with) the ability to ride for hours without feeling battered”<br /> <br /> Shinn's unique blend of paulownia/balsa reinforced with Hi-Modulous Spread-Tow carbon not only surpasses all previous generations of the Bronq but redefines the standard for lightweight kiteboard performance, comfort and control.<br /> <br /> Developed with the ability to adapt any kitesurfers riding, mood or simply the wind/water conditions on a given day the new Bronq Chromatic redefines our the standards for lightweight performance, comfort and control.

<h2><strong>Take a look at the new 2021 Shinn Resurector Wingsurfer at S2AS!</strong></h2> <p>The Resurector is the high performance, high quality wing you would expect from Shinn. Focusing on power, stability and effortless control this is a truly all-round wing capable of taking you from your first days on the water until you‘re competent and confident in all winds, waves and even in the air.</p> <p>Low end drive with control, absolute reliability when flagged and effortless ease of use no matter the situation. A wing that is stiff and responsive for pumping whilst exhibiting a progressive depower that feels totally intuitive– every feature has been carefully considered and designed allowing you to focus on your ride and not get distracted by the details.</p> <p>Tested through a multitude of real-world conditions and with a representative variety of rider levels and weights this may be our first wing but it joins the market as one of the first true 2nd generation wings.</p> <h3><strong>Features:</strong></h3> <ul> <li>Medium aspect design with extended strut gives a stable and controllable wing with good power, fantastic upwind and effortless flagging.</li> <li>Progressive tip sweep minimizes wing-tip strikes and allows for easier recovery from an inverted wing</li> <li>Dual Inflation valves (plus one pump) for maximum pressure versatility and speedy packing</li> <li>EVA-lined handles with no seams underneath for maximum finger comfort and extended sessions</li> <li>Re-enforced handle attachments for rigorous pumping and durability</li> <li>Intermediate transition handle for powered wing flying with one hand</li> <li>Cross-over multi-sport design SUP, Foil, Snowboard or Mountain Board</li> <li>Progressive de-power to avoid nose stall during the transition to the flagging handle or simply feathering the wing when riding upwind</li> <li>Light but strong 5mm coiled PU leash with comfortable neoprene/velcro cuff</li> <li>Intelligent window design allows safe riding whilst reducing stretch and packing without folding the window</li> </ul> <h3><strong>Construction:</strong></h3> <ul> <li>Challenge DK50 Double Ripstop canopy is light, durable and low-stretch</li> <li>KPE 175 Dacron used throughout the leading edge and strut enhancing stiffness and protecting the bladders even under high pressures</li> <li>Marine grade high-visibility PVC window for long-lasting visibility</li> </ul> <h3><strong>Package Includes:</strong></h3> <ul> <li>Resurector Wing</li> <li>Shinn 5mm coiled Leash</li> <li>Spacious Back Pack</li> <li>Colour coded Canopy repair patches</li> <li>Dacron leading edge and strut repair patch</li> <li>PVC window repair patch</li> <li>One pump service straps</li> </ul>
<h2><strong>Take a look at the new Shinn Model Mega K Carbon Set Kite Hydrofoil at S2AS!</strong></h2> <p>The Mega K is the most versatile wing in the Shinn range.<br /> <br /> Originally designed with Surf and SUP in mind it’s also proved to be exceptionally well suited to kite-foiling in waves and in extreme light winds. With a surprisingly high top speed for a wing of this size and yet still un-believable low speed starting (as low as 8 kph) the Mega K leads us down the path of multi-discipline wings. This season sees a massive performance increase thanks to our new hi-modulus carbon S20.1 stabiliser. Taking on board the lessons learnt during the development of the K2 foil this new stabiliser improves on speed range and pitch stability whilst carving like you can’t believe.<br /> <br /> By offering the Model Mega K with Carbon composite mast Shinn have made incredible improvements. Not happy to simply produce a "black" foil Shinn Kiteboarding needed every to work in perfect harmony, carbon foils offer so much more stiffness (at a lighter weight) than their aluminium counterparts. During foiling the rider is up to 1 metre above the foil, it’s long distance control, 1cm of flex at wing level is magnified by a factor of X to where you stand – imagine trying to push a button with a 1m long flexible stick or driving a car with flat tyres, each control input you make is magnified and delayed causing instability and even the most talented riders to wobble. If your serious about foiling and want to raise your game to the next level carbon is the only way forwards.<br /> <br /> Designed to provide lift at low speeds and yet retain enough top end to keep it fun the Mega K provides stability and manoeuvrability making it perfect for SUP, SURF or Kitewave foiling in small to medium sized waves. Utilizing a low to mid aspect ratio wing with a high rake delta outline has allowed us to provide the massive speed range needed to handle both starting and control on the wave face. The main wings blended winglets work with the flat stabiliser to give great directional stability without limiting the carving potential even at crazy slow speeds. Built using proprietary hi-modulus, multi-axial carbon sandwich construction and featuring an innovative new Hollow-Tech integrated mounting plate with fast mount slide on/off fasteners. This foil uses a dedicated fuselage but is compatible with all existing Shinn wings and stabilisers.<br /> <br /> So why do we recommend the Mega K for extreme light wind kiting as well? Low speed starting is the key where the challenge is to generate enough speed to start foiling. With the Mega K the power needed to water start is already enough to fly and with a top speed in excess of 35 kph you’ll be cruising when even other foilers are left sitting on the beach.<br /> <br /> People often ask us at S2AS if it makes sense to have a carbon foil mast and our answer is always "unless you want to spend the money don’t test one as once you try one you will never go back!"</p> <h3><strong>Features: </strong></h3> <p>- Versatile and Multi-functional: Strapless, Waves, Transitions and Extreme Light Wind<br /> - Hi-Modulus Carbon Wings: Medium/low aspect wing - 1200 cm 2 with down-turned winglet Stabiliser – S20.1<br /> - Amazing Speed Range: Take off around 8kph with top speeds >40 kph<br /> - Multiple Mast Lengths: Available with 60cm, 75cm, 90cm and 110cm<br /> - Hollow-Tech Mounting plate: This integrated plate Increases rigidity and decreases weight<br /> - Multi-axial, multi layered, hi-modulus carbon construction: Increased speed, increased stiffness and increased control<br /> - Compatible and Easy: Fast and easy foil attachment to any board (165 x 90 bolt spacings) with either M6 or M8 hardware<br /> - Modular Design: Fuselage compatibility with all other Shinn wings and stabilisers<br /> - Fast and Versatile Carbon Hydrofoil : Faster, Stiffer, More Stable</p>
<h2><strong>Take a look at the new Shinn Model K2 Carbon Set Kite Hydrofoil at S2AS!</strong></h2> <p>After more than 2 years of development and 30 different prototypes Shinn have finally released their full carbon hydrofoils!<br /> <br /> Introduced last year the K2 foil introduced new levels of stability and control in a foil that was fast, easy to use and incredibly pitch stable. For this season Shinn have raised the bar once again by offering this foil with an all new Carbon composite mast. Not happy to simply produce a "black" foil Shinn Kiteboarding needed every to work in perfect harmony, carbon foils offer so much more stiffness (at a lighter weight) than their aluminium counterparts. During foiling the rider is up to 1 metre above the foil, it’s long distance control, 1cm of flex at wing level is magnified by a factor of X to where you stand – imagine trying to push a button with a 1m long flexible stick or driving a car with flat tyres, each control input you make is magnified and delayed causing instability and even the most talented riders to wobble. If your serious about foiling and want to raise your game to the next level carbon is the only way forwards.<br /> <br /> Ride further and faster without extreme front foot pressure, agility with stability and a fast track to a more advanced foiling level. With a similar rake and surface area to the model K the secret to this foil is in the combination of the 2-stage anhedral front wing and high aspect, wingletted stabiliser perfectly balancing the foil through a range of speeds. Built using proprietary hi-modulus, multi-axial carbon sandwich construction and featuring an innovative new Hollow-Tech integrated mounting plate with fast mount slide on/off fasteners. This foil uses a dedicated fuselage but is compatible with all existing Shinn wings and stabilisers.<br /> <br /> People often ask us at S2AS if it makes sense to have a carbon foil mast and our answer is always "unless you want to spend the money don’t test one as once you try one you will never go back!"</p> <h3><strong>Features: </strong></h3> <p>- Revolutionary Freeride Foil: Designed for riders wanting to take their foiling to the next level – quickly.<br /> - Hi-Modulus Carbon Wings: Medium/high aspect wing - 866 cm 2 with winglet Stabiliser - 280cm2<br /> - ST3W Carbon Stabiliser with yaw control winglets<br /> - Versatile Speed range: Take off around 12 kph with top speeds >55 kph<br /> - Multiple Mast Lengths: Available with 60cm, 75cm, 90cm and 110cm<br /> - Hollow-Tech Mounting plate: This integrated plate Increases rigidity and decreases weight<br /> - Multi-axial, multi layered, hi-modulus carbon construction: Increased speed, increased stiffness and increased control<br /> - Compatible and Easy: Fast and easy foil attachment to any board (165 x 90 bolt spacings) with either M6 or M8 hardware<br /> - H4Modular Design: Fuselage compatibility with all other Shinn wings and stabilisers<br /> </p>

<h2><strong>2019 Shinn ADHD Clinic Kiteboard Available Now At S2AS</strong></h2> <p>The ADHD is our highest performance deck chosen by both competition freestylers and wake style purist a like. Stiff enough to perform yet comfortable enough to enjoy, we employed all the technology available to ensure the ADHD won’t hold your riding back (so get your other excuses ready). After an in depth analysis and identifying the key features needed in a freestyle machine we’ve engineered this board to perform. The split concave increases edge grip for a more explosive POP and at the same time dissipates the impact saving the knees during those sketchy kite low landings not to mention reducing base wear if obstacles are your thing. The Double Stepped Tips re-direct water as it exits the boards cutting drag and increasing directional stability without the need to resort to over sized fins (guaranteed to catch when you least want them too) and enhancing performance in less than full power conditions. The ADHD Clinic is a true favourite of the pro-riders on the team and with a proven competition heritage let us take your level as high as you dare no matter if your preferences are boots, straps, flat water, natural kickers or obstacles.</p> <p><img alt=" " src="https://shinnworld.com/image/2019/04/tablet/flex-rating-8.png" /></p> <h3><strong>TECH FEATURES</strong></h3> <p><strong>Split Concave</strong><br /> 90 degree entry for improved edge grip at speed and buttery smooth landings.</p> <p><strong>Double Stepped Tips</strong><br /> Improve carving POP whilst maintaining upwind drive</p> <p><strong>Constant Curve Rocker</strong><br /> Creating confidence inspiring control and balanced landings in all conditions</p> <p><strong>BITE 43 mm fins</strong><br /> Optoflex moulded composite fins for superior profile accuracy and lighter weight</p> <p><strong>Paulownia Full wood core</strong><br /> The best strength to weight ratio available with long lasting durability</p> <p><strong>2 year warranty</strong><br /> Peace of mind with our 2 year manufacturing defect warranty (conditions apply)</p> <p><strong>Sizes</strong><br /> 138 x 41.5<br /> 142 x 43</p> <p><strong>Ride it your way</strong><br /> Supplied with Sneaker SRS, Sneaker 6 or fins only to let you ride your ADHD your way</p>

<h2><strong>Take a look at the new 2018 Shinn Model K Foil Mast at S2AS!</strong></h2> <p>Sometimes you just don’t know what you need until you try it, and its the same here at S2AS. Everybody loves the feeling of achievement and success, it’s not so much about reaching the summit of the mountain but making the small steps needed along the way. Imagine making flying runs during your first hour on the water with a foil - well, at S2AS, we've got the gear that will get everybody hooked.</p> <p><br /> Speed range, stability, great pitch control and amazing carving the new Model K really does do it all. Inspired by the need for a foil to fill the gap between the impossibly easy to learn on P foil and high speed Model F, the Model K represents Shinn's vision for the perfect x-over, multi purpose foil. The Model K was developed with “2nd season” foilers in mind and was designed to ensure your progress remains as fast and painless as your first season on the Model P was. Impressive low speed starting and a high angle of attack stall resistance means you don’t need the footwork of a ballerina to master the tricky footswitches required for flying tacks and gybes and yet lock it down and pour on the power and the Model K accelerates and tracks assuredly with a feeling far more often associated with high performance race or free-race foils.<br /> <br /> Strapless action, light wind cruising, transition mastery – massive functioning speed range and easy pitch control mean the Model K fulfils the needs of even the most advanced foilers looking for something other than just flat out speed.</p> <p><strong>Features:</strong></p> <ul> <li><strong>Incredible Range:</strong> Start foiling at 8 and tested to above 30 kph – fast enough for fun, slow enough to learn.</li> <li><strong>Shinn Foil Compatibility Program: </strong>Complete compatibility with Shinn Model F wing – allowing for both a clear progression path and wings for all occasions.</li> <li><strong>Progressive Lift:</strong> Lift increase is very progressive allowing even inexperienced foilers enough time to react.</li> <li><strong>Stable Pitch Control: </strong>Low aspect design makes pitch changes slower and means over foiling becomes a thing of the past – ideal for kite and SUP foilers alike.</li> <li><strong>Suitable for Advanced Foilers: </strong>Accelerate your learning for all the flying transitions you want to learn, then transfer your new skills to the Model F wing.</li> <li><strong>Increased Rider Safety: </strong>Designed with no sharp edges this wing inspires confidence in case the worst thing happens.</li> <li><strong>2 Mast Length Options: </strong>Available complete with either 60cm or 90cm mast.</li> <li><strong>Quik-Fit Plate: </strong>Fast and easy foil removal without the need to remove the screws from the board.</li> </ul>
