NMD Njoy is NMD's tried and tested entry
bodyboard for the 2012 season, the Njoy includes a PE
core, new Fibre Flex HDPE slick, 55/45 rails and a crescent
tail.
The 2012 model has undergone a few changes,
with double layer in the rails to give a little more stiffness,
channels, less width in the nose area and a new look design.
Core: PE -
(The classic bodyboard core, providing unrivalled response
and control especially in larger, more hollow waves. The
superior flex in a PE/Dow core allows for greater hold
and manoeuvrability on the wave face.
Deck: Crosslink
(X-link) decking (A denser, more compact foam that absorbs
very little water and is therefore very durable.)
Slick: HDPE
Channelled Slick (A hardened slick material that is durable
and fast, yet still super responsive)
Tail: Clipped
Crescent Tail (Provides superior control and hold on the
wave face while also allowing for ease of rail to rail
transitions and release from carves and spins.)
Channels:
Graduated Channels (Greatly enhance control and drive,
ensuring the rider has maximum command over their board
when bottom turning, trimming and transitioning from rail
to rail.)
Additional Features:
55/45 double rails, nylon cord leash and plug.
The perfect boogie board for those
starting out in the sport. NMD (Nick Meseritz Designs)
At the moment, probably the best bodyboard shaper in the
world.

A few ideas to help prolong the life of your new friend
from NMD
We want this NMD bodyboard to become an extension of you, the
vehicle to take you to the next level.
At NMD HQ, we live and breathe bodyboarding,
shaping each and every board with pride. Treat your ride with respect and take
care of her. Nuriure and caress her, wash and pamper her and she wili return your
affection. Treat her bad and she will soon leave you. With a little bit of TLC,
you and your new friend will share the good times ahead.
Bodyboard care suggestions
-
Always keep your board as cool as possible:
Avoid the "baking" car trunk.
-
lf you have to leave it out in the sun, be
sure to cover her with a towel.
-
Rinse your board off with cool fresh water
after every use.
-
Don't use your board to sand slide or skim
board.
-
Don't "over test the flex" by bending
your board excessively.
-
Store you board flat when not in use, under
the bed is a good spot.
-
Treat your board with the same care as you
would your body, when exposed to the sun. Like sunburnt skin, bodyboards bubble
when unprotected in the sun. Keep your board covered in a cool shady place when
nol_being ridden.
-
Avoid flat landings after aerial moves: this
will help to minimize creasing. Try to land tajl or rail first. Also look for
the whitewater cushion where possible.
things to think about
The ocean can be a dangerous place. With all the currents,
waves, hidden objects and of course, people, you need to be careful. Here are
a few pointers that can help keep you safe.
-
This is a high performance bodyboard not a life
saving device.
-
Always surf with a friend to share the stoke and
look out for each other.
-
Check every surf spot for potential hazards before
you go out.
-
Don't drop in, get in the way or interfere with
other wave riders.
WARNING: PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE YOU INSERT PLUG: BEFORE YOU PLUG YOUR BOARD
Your board may be fitted with our exclusive REACT stringer
system.
Check the component listing for verification.
Please take care when installing your leash plug.
For boards fitted with a SINGLE stringer drill AT LEAST
4 INCHES either side from the center of the board as indicated by the "X"
on diagram A.
For boards fitted with a double stringer drill lN THE CENTER
of the board as indicated by the "X" on diagram B.
Failure to comply may result in contact with the stringer.
Damage caused by drilling the plug too close to the stringer is not covered under
warranty. Although the REACT stringer system has been designed to maximize the
boards recoil properties, the REACT stringer system will not prevent creasing
and is not warranted against over flexing.
By drilling into the core of your board, a necessary evil
when inserting a leash plug, water can enter the internal structure during use
via the opening around the plug. Due to all NMD cores being closed cell, only
the cells that are damaged by the drilling can absorb water. Water may be heard
from time to time inside the stringer, this occurs only in minute amounts and
will not effect the performance of your board.
