Jimmy Lewis Kiteboards 2007
Riding a Jimmy Lewis board is unlike anything else. More than 36 years of shaping experience are behind the '07 Jimmy Lewis Kiteboard lineup. The line has expanded again this year to include a board for every style of riding. All around twin tips, open water twins, directional twins, lightwind twins, power freestyle designs and kite-surf boards round out the comprehensive lineup of 2007 Jimmy Lewis Kiteboards.

â€œThe 2007 Jimmy Lewis lineup is a well thought out program of kiteboards and kitesurfboards, with each board completely dialed into its target rider. The performance of these boards is unmatched in the sport. 100% identical to Jimmy's custom boards in shape and construction, some even say the production line is better than the customs due to better graphics, even more durability and overall better finish. While the entire industry seems to be in a race to see who can make a kiteboard look the most like a snowboard, Jimmy focuses on making a Kiteboard for Kiteboarding. Seems simple, but these boards are truly unique and still the only boards available that offer the edging power to control your kite through your board, rather than just the chicken loop.â€ - Trip Forman

Brand new to the water, and just in time for the 2007 riding season, is the new Jimmy Lewis Flight Deck. This shape is dedicated to lightwind performance while maintaining a wide range of use in windrange and water conditions.

The powerful Model III is back as one of the most versatile twin tip series going, featuring Jimmy's Dominatrix single concave bottom shape for absolute control wherever you ride. Often referred to as "the best twin tip ever made", the JL Model III has been our best selling kiteboard at REAL for three seasons in a row ! The Charger shapes are open water twin tips loaded with tons of turning power, grip and chop control together with all the range a twin tip can offer -perfect for traveling! Women should check out the new Sister 124 and 132 (All Around) and Twisted Sister 128 (Open Water). Rounding out the JL Twin arsenal is a new freestyle powerhouse called the Park. Available in 128 x15 and 136 x 16, the Park features a powerful tailblock and durable formica bottom. The JL PARK was the only board to make it through the ACL video shoot unbroken !

â€œI still can't believe how good all the 2007 boards ride and look. Everything from the shapes, to the finishing details to the graphics and accessories is a notch above the entire industry. The finish work on dominatrix concave bottoms is truly perfect. Check out this curve when you are looking at one of my new 2007 boards and you will see the difference. These boards have POWER ! - Jimmy Lewis

When waves become your focal point, the Rad-F directional twin offers true surf handling and upwind ease. Not just for surfers, the Rad-F has gained respect as the ride for gusty winds and challenging waters and almost feels like a true twin in â€œreverseâ€. Finally, when you really want to explore all the potential of a wave, or if you are just looking for more excitement in lightwinds, the JL Surf series (5'2,5'8, and 6'0) are available in a light, durable and strong epoxy sandwich construction. The JL Surf can be ridden strapless or with 2 symmetrical JL footstraps. Jimmy Lewis production shapes come appropriately complete with everything you need to ride.

â€œI said it last year and I'll say it again,..The single biggest improvement I ever made to my riding was when I switched to a Jimmy Lewis Kiteboard. I've tried a lot more kites and boards since last year and this statement still holds true. Whether you are a beginner looking for your first board, or a pro looking for a board to take your riding to the next level, Jimmy's boards are in a class by themselves and truly allow you to concentrate on your riding rather than the shortcoming of your boards performance.â€ - Matt Nuzzo

Check out all the tech, specs, and rider reviews of the new 2007 Jimmy Lewis Kiteboards and Kitesurfboards:

FLIGHT DECK : Lightwind Twin.
The Flight Deck is a brand new Jimmy Lewis design for 2007. The Flight Deck is optimized to perform in the lightest of winds, while maintaining excellent control and performance when the wind or water conditions pick up. The Flight Deck is the perfect lightwind compliment to any of the Jimmy Twin tips including the Model III, Charger, Park, Sister or Twisted Sister. The Flight Deck automatically powers up any underpowered kite, making gusty days or days when the wind is up and down, easy and fun rather than frustrating. The Flight Deck is a very confident shape that is easily handled by new riders and makes the highest level of performance possible by advanced riders. Try one of the new JL Flight Decks and see what lightwind fun is all about ! 147cm x 18â€

â€œThe new Jimmy Lewis Flight Deck 147cm redefines what is possible with a lightwind dedicated kiteboard. This board planes up and powers upwind extremely early. The wide width and tailblock provide maximum horsepower for underpowered conditions. No matter what size kite you have in the air, when the wind drops, you are riding â€œlightwindâ€. Rather than re-rigging a larger kite, simply return to the beach and change boards to your JL Flight Deck and you will be fully powered up again. The biggest difference between the Flight Deck and other lightwind designs, is the control and performance the Flight Deck maintains when the wind and water conditions increase. This is due to the dominatrix bottom shape with concave bottom and rounded rails. Just like every other board in the JL lineup, the Flight Deck delivers with an extremely wide range of use, performing at a very high level for wide range of riders.â€ - Trip Forman

MODEL III : All Around Twin.
The Model III is JL's most popular design. A perfect blend of flatwater power, all around control and wave maneuverability. Medium tail block, dominatrix bottom and rail shape, 4 sizes for every wind strength and rider size. 125cm x 14.75â€, 133cm x 15.25â€, 139cm x 15.75â€, 145cm x 17â€.

â€œThe Model 3 is the flagship Jimmy Lewis board. This is the do anything, go anywhere board. All 4 sizes add something unique to the line and are equally amazing boards. No matter what your ability leve,l when you ride the Model 3 you will immediately know what all the Jimmy Lewis excitement is about.â€ - Matt Nuzzo

â€œThe Model III is the â€œbread and butterâ€, â€œgo toâ€ board in the JL lineup. It does everything so well. From the pocket rocket 125cm to the Cadillac Escalade 145cm, the Model III has improved the riding of more riders than any other kiteboard on the market. This board defines edging power and kite control !â€ - Trip Forman

â€œThe JL Model III has been my board of choice for two years now. I have tried every board that has come through REAL, and I always go back to the
Model III. Easy upwind, nice pop, great in chop and in waves, this board does it allâ€. - Nicholas Rodriquez

â€œThe Model 3 boards are the best all around boards in the entire JL collection. The 125 and 133 are great for small or more advanced riders while the 139 and 145 are perfect for heavier riders or light wind days. The 139 and 145 are so easy and confident to ride that they make the perfect first board, because you will never outgrow them. I rode the Model 3 125cm for the last year and really enjoyed the smooth feeling of the rounded edges and the concave bottom.â€ - Aimee Raby

"The Model III is the all around board that will take any rider to the next level. I didn't think a board could make this much difference in making you a better kiteboarder, but it does. If you are riding in all different types of riding conditions and only want one board, the Model III will do it better that anything available." - Tommie Kogut

"The 145cm is a light wind machine!! I rode this board on a light wind day when everyone was grumbling on the beach. I took a 17m Fuel and the JL Model III 145 for an afternoon cruise. I could plane in light wind and edge upwind like crazy. The 145cm is stable, solid and rides like a fully loaded Mercedes. I can't believe I never realized how insane this board is!!" - Brittainy Wright

CHARGER : Open Water Twin
The new JL Charger features narrower tips for added control and grip in high speed turns and choppy water. Additional outline curve maximizes maneuverability and turning, both in flat water and waves. The Charger is the perfect twin for chop, waves, high speeds and blistering turns. Adrenaline junkies take note: This board should be an illegal substance.â€ 127cm x 15â€ and 137cm x 15.75â€.

â€œThe Charger is optimized for â€œOpen Waterâ€, including chop, swell, and waves, the narrower tail block and increased outline curve make the Charger a real turning machine. I think Tommie's turns in the BVIs really say everything about this board. No matter how fast you are going, the board holds in and just flies.â€- Trip Forman

â€œThe Charger comes with SS stripes and is designed to turn your average everyday riding spot into a playground. Designed with a narrow tailblock, the Charger is perfect for the open water choppy and wavy conditions. I have ridden this board in the worst of the worst of choppy days and the best of the best head high side off wave days and this board dominated both type of conditions. If you are looking for a board to ride every day in deep open water, then the Charger is a board not to miss.â€ - Matt Nuzzo

"The new Charger will let you ride and turn harder than you ever have before. Double over head waves ?? Not a problem for the Charger. Waist high chop ? You will see the Charger perform like no other board available. The Charger is the fastest board I have ever used in chop and waves. This board is shaped to go fast and it will handle it. Go faster and carve harder than anyone at your beach with the JL Charger." - Tommie Kogut

PARK: Freestyle Powerhouse / Park Approved Construction.
Rounding out the JL Twin arsenal is a new freestyle powerhouse called the Park. The Park features a powerful tailblock and durable formica bottom. The JL Park was the only board to make it through the ACL Autofocus video shoot unbroken ! 128cm x 15â€, 136cm x 16â€.

â€œCan you say POP? This board has it. Designed with extra wide tailblock, the Park is great for flat water tricks. In addition to the psycho amount of pop this board can deliver, it has a formica bottom for added
durability and the ultimate sliding surface.â€ - Matt Nuzzo

"This is the board that I have been waiting for since we received the first prototype model over 3 months ago. The board just looks like it can hold massive amounts of power. With a size of 136cmx16", a wide tail block, concave and formica bottom; this is the board that is going to take my riding to the next level. Everything from kickers and sliders to ultimate flat water, this is the board of choice, April 3rd can't come fast enough!" - Nick Rodriquez

â€œThe Jimmy Park performs like a Model III on three cups of espresso. I ride the Park 136cm because it gives me huge pop, maximum windrange and the durability to really push it to the limit. Whether you are riding straps or boots, the JL Parks excels when you want to push your freestyle riding to the next level.â€ - Tommie Kogut

â€œJimmy Lewis performance and park riding durability are no longer mutually exclusive ! The standard JL production construction is already the proven strongest in the industry when it comes to board breakage. Add to this a layer of durable formica on the bottom and you have a high performance rail sliding machine. This will be a popular board in the REAL Slider park this summer..â€ - Trip Forman

â€œI really like the Park 128, this board is a tough one that allows a more aggressive riding style. The Park offers great pop for wakeboarding style moves and is solid enough to hit sliders !â€ - Aimee Raby

SISTER : Women's All Around Twin
The Sister is designed for women who want a powerful all around design featuring dominatrix bottom and rail shape, medium tail block, wide windrange and forgiving feel. The Sister excels in flat water, pop, maneuvers and solid edge control. Female specific design, foostrap placement, construction and graphics. 124cm x 14.75â€, 132cm x 15"

"Get on any Jimmy Lewis Board and your riding will improve 100 %. The Sister board is easy to edge, so you can always count on it when you get over powered because you can really push the tail down and be in control. It has a great pop, is the smoothest ride on the planet and when you land your jumps it feels like you are landing on a cloud. " - Lucy Nuzzo

â€œThe Sister has an all around shape based on the Model III, but downsized for women with smaller feet, and lighter weights. The moderate tailblock on the sister gives great pop off flat water and waves. This is a sweet board that will turbo charge an women's ridingâ€ - Trip Forman

â€œThe Sister is a good choice for freestyle riders who are looking for a maneuverable, small and light board.â€ - Aimee Raby

TWISTED SISTER : Women's Open Water Twin
The Twisted Sister features added length and rail curve with a smaller tailblock for optimal feel in chop, waves and open water. The Dominatrix bottom and rail shape add the extra control needed in these conditions. Female specific design, foostrap placement, construction and graphics. 128cm x 15â€.

â€œThe Twisted Sister is well designed for women freeriders. The board is light, turns fast and is stable through the chop and the waves.â€ - Aimee Raby

"This is the board of my dreams! The Twisted Sister carves the waves like butter!! When you set your turn, the board takes you through it with power and stability. The Twisted Sister's smaller tail block allows you to cut through chop and hold your edge. If I could only take one kiteboard, this would be it!" - Brittainy Forman

â€œThe Twisted Sister works extremely well for women who ride in open water and need a smaller tailblock to help with control in chop or highspeed turns. The two tone light blue graphic doesn't hurt either !â€ - Trip Forman

RAD-F : Directional Twin for Surf or Upwind Power.
When waves become your focal point, the Rad-F directional twin offers true surf handling and upwind ease. Not just for surfers, the Rad-F has gained respect as the ride for gusty winds and challenging waters and almost feels like a true twin in â€œreverseâ€. 132cm x 15â€, 137cm x 15.5â€, 142cm x 16â€.

â€œThe new Rad-F 142cm may have the best tailblock shape in kiteboarding history. It's a rounded squash tail, thruster set up. I look at this tail and drool. The first one out of the box was mine from the second the tail revealed its curves. Having spent 9 months off footstraps thanks to a knee injury, this was the board that I couldn't resist strapping back on. When it hit the water, it did not disappoint. The bottom turns and fans you can throw on this board are retarded. This board freaking ROCKS !â€ - Trip Forman

â€œThe Rad-F is the type of board that I never wanted to ride, but once I rode it, I became a convert. The stand out trait with the Rad-F is that it rides just as comfortable backwards as frontwards. As someone that swore I would never jibe again once I quite windsurfing, having the option to ride the Rad-F backwards makes this board really convenient for wave riding. Oh yeah did I mention that the Rad-f has all of the power and speed of a twin tip in the waves, but the traction of a directional ?â€ - Matt Nuzzo

â€œI have ridden the Rad-F this season in some crazy surf. This board always delivers. It is a directional at heart but can be ridden as a twin tip so you don't have to jibe it. Down the line riding is what this thing is designed for, Jimmy knows his surf!â€ - Nick Rodriquez

SURF : Strapless or Strapped Kite-Surfboards. More and more riders are carrying surfboards as a dedicated part of their kiteboard arsenal. The JL Surfs are true thruster shapes constructed in durable/light epoxy sandwich construction to handle the abuse of â€œkitesurfingâ€. The JL Surfs can be ridden strapless or with 2 symmetrical JL footstraps. . These JL Surf shapes are the leading designs in the industry and shine in a wide range of conditions from knee high onshore mush, to perfect corduroy side offshore point breaks. Complete boards include deck, pads, 2 straps, 3 future fin box surf fins. 5'2â€ x 17.4â€, 5'8â€ x 18.5â€, 6'0â€ x 20â€.

â€œThe JL Surf 5'8 and 6'0 have proven themselves as the two most versatile kite-surf shapes on the market. Classic JL thruster shapes in durable and lightweight JL construction, we have yet to see one even heel dent, never mind break like a lot of other surfboard shapes out there. I have ridden my JL 5'8 and 6'0 in everything from knee high summer southside, to double over head plus hurricane groundswell. These boards absolutely blow minds in a wide range of conditions. The 5'2" is a psychotic strapped weapon for powered wave riding !â€ - Trip Forman

â€œWith all of the "surf style" surf kiteboards coming onto the market it canbe kind of intimidating to find out what one will be best for you. The thing that separates the Jimmy Lewis Surf from all others on the market is that Jimmy has been shaping surfboards and kiteboards for 35 years and the Surf was specifically designed as a surf orientated kiteboard. This board excels in underpowered to overpowered conditions, rides upwind like a rocket, and rips on the wave face. Coming complete with fiberglass fins, deck pads and foot straps, you can ride the Surf strapless or strapped and have
an equally good time.â€ - Matt Nuzzo

"The JL 5'8 Surf Kiteboard has changed my life. This board has brought tons of fun to small, light wind days. The 5'8 is quick to plane, snaps to attention at every turn, and is more durable than anything I have ridden to date." - Brittainy Forman

â€œMy JL 5'8' surfboard allows me to practice a new riding style while easily staying upwind during light wind days. It is also a lot of fun and a great challenge to ride this surfboard in the waves.â€ - Aimee Raby

â€œMy feet have never touched a surfboard until I rode the 6'0 JL Surf. You could say that now I am spoiled, I don't know if that is a good or bad thing. It took me 2 sessions to get used to riding strapless, but once you get it, it's like riding a bike and the JL Surf makes it as easy as it can be!â€ - Nick Rodriquez
