Integrated Footbed System
The Integrated Footbed System (IFS), combining comfort and functionality, is now into its third year.
// STANDARD

Assemblycouldn’t be easier – choose your stance and screw them in – it’s as simple as that. The screws are already mounted in the pads, unlike conventional systems where you need to squeeze your pad so the screw from the strap can reach the thread! Furthermore, by building the pad and strap into one unit the ability for the straps to twist at their fixation points has been eliminated.

Conventional straps are hinged on just one side for adjustment, which might be OK for the average foot, but when adjusted for smaller or bigger feet, the shape of the strap, so carefully designed for your comfort, can distort. The vertical adjustment of the IFS ensures that whatever size the strap is adjusted to, the geometry of the strap, (and therefore comfort), remains the same, meaning everyone gets to enjoy a smooth ride.

Available with Standard IFS black/white or IFS Pro yellow or black footpads.(+£20

// IFS PRO

Introduced in 2009, the innovative and well-received IFS PRO has been further improved for 2010 and continues to raise the standard of board/rider connection to new levels of comfort.

The IFS Pro is the world’s only triple-density, molded pad resulting in a foot bed system where the compression “ramps up” through its depth of travel. Heavy impacts sees each layer becoming progressively firmer, preventing any possibility of your foot coming into contact with the board, yet maintains the direct feeling needed between the rider and the board when on the water.

Comfort however mustn’t be at the expense of function and the ergonomically formed IFS PRO features an in-board cant leading from the heel down to the toe, ensuring that upon impact, your foot is held securely into the strap with little chance of it slipping dangerously out of it. Featured on the front edge, the multi-ridged toe strip helps with grip, whatever your foot size, and the molded Polyurethane texture under the heel provides traction in all conditions.

For 2010 they increased the width of the integrated foot strap to further enhance foot grip and comfort. With no exposed webbing or hard materials to create friction rubs on your feet, the vertical adjustment has been increased to ensure a wider range of fits for all foot sizes.

Finally, in the further application of the Nobile Human Concept they have coloured the straps and pads in a distinctive, high visibility Yellow to enable riders to easier locate lost boards should they become separated.

The IFS Pro continues to guarantee that every ride is a pleasure with unparalleled levels of comfort working hand in hand with function.

Nobile´s Human Concept is about harmonising the needs, requirements, and sometimes limitations of our bodies, with technical advancements in equipment as we strive for the ultimate synergy between rider and material. Neither boards nor kites are able to function alone….. it is the rider that connects everything and it’s too easy to let the fanatical pursuit of ultimate performance dominate, forgetting that we riders may not always have the necessary physiology to make effective use of these advances, nor the desire to sacrifice other equally important factors, such as comfort and safety. Nobile’s Human Concept acknowledges that our goal remains ultimate performance through technological and innovative progress, but in COMBINATION with the advantages and limitations our bodies naturally feature, allowing riders to enjoy and appreciate the quality and achieve maximum performance from the equipment they are riding.
