Nobile Kiteboarding Saudade 2015 Collection

life is better when you’re kiteboarding

The Ultimate Boards Collection 2015

“Saudade” is a word of Portuguese origin which doesn’t translate directly into any other language. It means deep emotional state of nostalgia, caused by absence of someone or something, but also a positive feeling when you experience something good you really yearn for. For Brazilians “saudade” is a positive feeling. They call it „a love that remains”. It’s a memory of emotions, experiences, places or events which brought us joy and the sense of happiness, stimulate our senses and make us want to live again.

We believe that both for you and us saudade is a longing for ocean, wind, sun and beach. It works both ways, because when we sail, we miss our home, family, love and all the things close to our heart. It’s a positive yearning for the sense of freedom, happiness and love.

The Saudade collection refers to Brazil during the full bloom of its culture. To Brazil of the sixties, its modern architecture and design, as well as rich and diverse culture. This collection makes us think about hot beaches and beautiful people from the perspective of Brazilian soul. Saudade.

Gosia Rosiak-Brawanska, CEO

Ten years ago we fell in love with kiteboarding. For us every moment in the water means joy and fantastic experience. When we travel around the globe and find our products in Australia, Cape Town, San Francisco, Tarifa or Hel, we are seized with satisfaction and realize the challenges we face every day, in order to meet your expectations and remain the producer of the best equipment worldwide.

This year, for the first time, we present four product lines in fantastic Saudade collection, inspired by Brazil of the sixties, when the country celebrated the biggest economic and cultural boom. We are convinced that you will love the boards of Uniao, Pro, Beleza and Separa lines. We want Nobile, apart from being the technological leader of the branch, to set new standards in design as well.

Welcome to Saudade.

UniãoUniao in Portuguese means „encounter”.

It is also a line of boards for beginners and amateurs for whom it is often the first encounter

with this sport.

begginers / amateurs

PróThe Pro line was designed for experienced

kite users. The strength, agility and beauty are behind every board of this line. Here we will find the great Brazil and even bigger ocean.

SeparaWe have given our „split” boards line the

name of Separa, which means “separation”. The leitmotif is the sun – and moon in case of carbon boards – which reflects in sea waves.

The encounter is universal. It can be anything. Just like the circle meets many triangles, one person meets countless people throughout his/her life. This board might be your first but definitely not last encounter with kiteboarding.

The capital city of Brazil – Brasilia – and its symbol: the building of National Congress, designed by Oscar Niemeyer. Thanks to this board you will feel like a Brazilian prorider.

Separa means separation. The board creates the scenery. We connect the sky and ocean horizons, and begin the adventure. When we stop riding, this adventure will end – just like the scenery on the separated board which becomes incomplete. This board is also for those who value comfort.

At first glance the symbols are mysterious. Just like the nature of women. She feels, she speaks. Lips and heart. This board will help you to express the unspoken.

The meeting of two people. We don’t know whether they’ve seen each other for the first or for the last time. When you go kiteboarding, your loved ones stay at home. This board will let you remember them.

The Brazilian coastline. The longest one in South America. 7491 km of beautiful beaches, wild waves and gorgeous women. On this board you will be able to ride all along.


Women are beautiful in every detail. Sometimes a detail can be more seductive than the whole picture. Actually, the looks of all around speak for themselves. This board will emphasize the beauty of every woman.

Shapes meet shapes. Colours meet colours. One encounters another and creates a pattern. Chaotic and wild. Just like the ocean that awaits you.

There is such a moment when the moon eclipses the sun, and in an instant, darkness falls. We lack something essential for our existence. Then, we miss it. On this board, you can even ride during an eclipse.

BelezaBeleza means „beautiful”. Or to be more precise – „a beautiful woman”. In this women’s line we search for beauty in the details – the beauty you

can’t turn your eyes of.

PicoKiteboarding is not only encounter with water, but also with snow. The

Pico line is a collection of the world’s best snowkites. Pico means “peak”. Mountain, sun, lines of cloud ceiling – you’ll find it all in the graphics of

winter lineeyes of.

The way down from the mountain is steep and winding, while the peak itself seems to be inaccessible. It looks like running to the very end, with no limits. The board is also for those who are not afraid to reach for the sky.


The way down from the mountain is steep and winding, while the peak itself seems to be inaccessible. It looks like running to the very end, with no limits. The board is also for those who are not afraid to reach for the sky.


Every time we cross the sky with our board, we can imagine that we draw a line on it. Many can fly but only very few can do a 720 in the air. With this board it is possible even in light wind.

Waves can be really big. You must have the power to tame and conquer them. We tense our muscles like there’s no limit to our biceps. There’s no room for hesitation. This board is strictly for champions

When you are kiteboarding it is not only an encounter with sport. It’s a meeting with the elements. With water and wind. Enter the water, touch the sun. This board will definitely allow you to achieve that.

Rio de Janeiro. The sixties. Bossa nova, red-hot pavements arranged in waves. This board is also a sound wave, or to be more precise, the voice recording of screaming seagull. A board not only for Copacabana.

NOBILE HUMAN CONCEPT PHILOSOPHY

„From the very beginning, the idea behind all Nobile

innovations was called human concept philosophy. The

point is, to understand it is the human who is the most

important part of the system, because even the best

equipment is not able to function alone. It is the rider who

connects all elements of kitesurfing. It means, to develop

the best equipment, we have to analyze and understand

natural advantages and limitations of human body

and mind, and built the gear around them. It’s equally

important as the external aspects of the environment

the equipment will be used in: wind and water. It takes

scientific knowledge from various of disciplines to develop

best performing and truly rider-friendly gear . In short

words, since the very beginning performance and safety

are the key issues for us. I never wanted just to produce the

kiteboarding equipment. I want it to be the best product on

the market, the product that set the standards in terms of

safety, performance and comfort and helps to popularize

the kiteboarding as a sport.

I believe the safety on water and the joy of kitesurfing

are the most important issues, that’s why most of our

innovations were never patented or legally reserved

for Nobile, and they already became a industry-wide

standards. Just to mention, after developing the first

kiteboards to utilize the snowboard technology, we

introduced the Elliptical Progressive Concave (EPC) that

combines the advantages of both a flat-bottomed board

and concave, and provides very early planning, Dynamic

Asymmetrical Outline, because we realized the heel

side of the kiteboard should work differently than the

toe side, or Hydrodynamic Rocker Line to optimize the

water drag (reflects in control over the board and riding

speed). Do not forget about the Complete Anti Vibration

(CAV) tech engineered to provide faster and comfortable

ride. Constant research on best flex and torsion, leaded

us to invite the 3D Multichannel construction introduced

in first NHP and 50/Fifty kiteboards. This solution began

a new standard in boards performance. Improved comfort

on landings, explosive POP, better response and improved

edge grip began the standard features for all models

equipped with 3D Construction”.

We designed the T5 to keep a smile on your face. Fast, truly user-friendly and responsive, plus it has auto-relaunch capabilities. Is there anything more you need? This year we introduced many changes in order to bring even better performance and take a step forward in freeride-oriented kites. The reshaped construction makes the kite more predictable, with a more direct feeling, and improves the wave performance. Moreover, a huge wind range and stability in the air make this kite one of the most attractive on the market. In the new T5 we have also upgraded aerodynamic capabilities – less drag and superb upwind performance. To do so, we improved durability by using narrow canopy panels and solid reinforcements, which we know is extremely important for all you riders. The new larger valve makes pumping fast and easy. Now you will jump higher, ride safer and have lots of fun in any given conditions!

* Available from autumn 2014

The 50/Fifty is a hybrid C kite – the perfect combination of both C and bow kites advantages. It boasts a superfast, thin profile and a floating strut in the middle of the kite. Not only is it lightweight, but it also absorbs the vibrations caused by sudden gusts of wind and eliminates fluttering. The kite is super-fast, the depower is out of this world, while the large surface wing tips improve the kite’s agility and ensure intuitive feedback at the bar. The 50/Fifty is a powerful kite which will reward you with excellent lift and POP, combined with constant power while performing tricks. It gives you impressive speed and nice pull when turning, plus the stability, direct feeling, superb unhooked performance and easy relaunch make this kite a perfect choice for all our freestyle and new school riders.

YOU WILL NEVER WALK ALONE

Unlike many others, Nobile kiteboard grab handle is soft and flexible, so in case of crash you don’t have to worry about the injury – it is reduced to minimum. Made in highly-visible rescue orange colour the handle will help you not only to carry the board, but also to locate it when lost on the water.

STAY THE COURSE

Nobile fins are produced in „Click&Go” tool-free mounting standard. It takes just a few seconds to mount/dismount fins with your bare hands. A screwdriver is no longer necessary. We redesigned the mounting system to provide a stronger connection between the fin and the board. It’s also easier and faster to mount and demount the fins.

A PERFECT MATCH

The IFS Pro is a comfortable and ergonomic connection between you and your board. To increase your safety and comfort, our footbed is equipped with shock-absorbing air chambers that reduce the impact of the stroke during landing and helps to protect your body, especially knees. The IFS Pro features a new, reinforced frame and multi-position mounting to provide superb comfort and control over the board.

Nobile PA GF33 fins are made of 33% glass reinforced PA (Polyamide). Fins are made in extremely highly-visible „ultra orange” to let you know where did you drop your precious kiteboard. It features the same durability as G10 Epoxy but is much lighter. 33% glass reinforced PA fins become a standard in all Nobile boards.

SIZE (mm): 20, 40, 55

Nobile G10 fins are made of stiff glass composite which guarantees high durability. This material makes the connection between fins and the board very strong, while keeping the low flexibility of the fins. This ensures the high level of control when riding.

NobileG10 fins are compatible with the tool-free “Click&Go” mounting standard and can be used interchangeably with PA fins.

The „ultra orange” colour of the fins is superbly visible from the distance, so losing your precious kiteboard in the water is impossible.

SIZE (mm): 40, 55

This classic 4-line kite is the perfect introduction to kiteboarding and we designed it to meet all requirements of beginners or those looking to get a taste of what it’s like to fly a kite. Our training kite – unlike others – is also designed to be used on the water, for body dragging, and for those first few tentative runs with the board. With easy and forgiving handling, direct steering, fast relaunching and an intuitive security system this is the perfect training kite. All of the crucial points of the kite, including canopy, leading edge, tips and the valves area are also reinforced by additional layers of Dacron to make it extra durable and tough. Superb stability and power customized to beginner’s needs make this a great first-timer’s kite, but it can also be used by advanced riders on those days when it is really howling.

We would like to introduce a new machine in kite range. It is called Mr. Big. When others are building sand castles, you will be ripping on the water! This kite has a huge surface with a flat shape generating real power. Six strut construction ensures stability and keeps the kite in profile in the air. Upwind capabilities give you the feeling of being stuck at the window’s edge – which is valuable when you join the race. The manoeuverability of this kite is a pleasure and the feeling of the bar is very precise with perfect handling. Our new large valve helps you with pumping this jumbo. If you really want an everyday kite, you need this stuff!

* Available from autumn 2014

New Nobile 4-line Bar is one the most effective tools to steer your kite. The bar is focused on safety and and ergonomics, no matter what the skill level or wind conditions. Compatible with all Nobile kites, 2014 bar offers direct feeling and smooth control.
